Sewage & Submersible Pumps

Troubleshooting, removal, inspection, and repair support for wastewater, sewage, and submersible pump equipment.

Common Failure Conditions

RMS looks at the system around the pump.

Pump equipment is affected by hydraulics, controls, valves, piping, demand, alignment, operating history, and service condition. RMS uses field observations and repair experience to identify the likely cause before recommending the next step.

Typical symptoms

  • Overload trips
  • Debris restriction
  • Poor drawdown
  • Seal leakage
  • Check-valve problems

RMS Process

From first symptom to documented return-to-service.

RMS follows a practical workflow: understand the operating problem, verify the cause, perform the right work, test the result, and leave a usable service record.

01

Assessment

Collect symptoms, site context, equipment details, and urgency before assuming the pump is the only fault.

02

Diagnosis

Compare operating observations, current, pressure, flow, controls behavior, valves, and mechanical condition.

03

Recommendation

Separate confirmed repair needs from system-side issues and identify the practical return-to-service path.

04

Repair

Complete field service, shop repair, rebuild coordination, controls adjustments, or retrofit work within RMS's scope.

05

Testing

Verify rotation, pressure, drawdown, sequencing, leakage, vibration, current draw, and system behavior where applicable.

06

Documentation

Record post-service observations so future maintenance and troubleshooting have a usable baseline.
