Pumps are the backbone of rotating equipment in industrial operations, ensuring steady performance in sectors like refining, petrochemicals, and power generation. Among these, Overhung (OH) and Between Bearing (BB) pumps are valued for their specialized mechanical and hydraulic characteristics, handling everything from hydrocarbons to high-pressure water injection with efficiency and reliability.
The Overhung (OH) and Between Bearing (BB) Pump Types and Design training course provides in-depth coverage of the design fundamentals, application criteria, and operational behavior of OH2 and BB3 pumps. What sets this course apart is its hands-on approach: participants will work directly with real pump units—disassembling, inspecting, measuring, and reassembling them to perform critical checks such as internal clearances, seal fits, and shaft alignment. By merging theoretical insights with real-world application, this course equips attendees with the skills to identify issues early, optimize pump performance, and extend equipment life—ultimately driving improved reliability and reduced downtime across plant operations.
By the end of this training course, participants will be able to:
