Johnston Pump <strong>Repair</strong><br />
Mining<br />
Problem:<br />
This slurry pump casing received extreme abrasive wear from processing large size ore <strong>and</strong> high<br />
percentage solids. A typical slurry application. The pump was fitted with a Nihard liner. Voids between<br />
the casing <strong>and</strong> liner needed to be filled or sealed to eliminate leaking.<br />
Solution:<br />
Complete repair areas were first s<strong>and</strong>blasted to a SSPC-SP5 white metal finish. Surface areas were then<br />
chemically cleaned using Cleaner Blend 300. The brass bushing was coated with <strong>Devcon</strong>’s Release Agent<br />
to allow for easy post cure removal. To maintain proper volute dimension, a wood plug was machined,<br />
coated with a paste release agent, <strong>and</strong> fitted into position. Any parts requiring disassembly must be coated<br />
with <strong>Devcon</strong>’s Release Agent. Ceramic <strong>Repair</strong> Putty was mixed <strong>and</strong> applied filling in all voids. Following<br />
full cure, (24 hours), both the plug <strong>and</strong> brass ring were removed.
