Adjusting End Play on Vertical Pump Motors

This new video walks through the steps to adjust and set end play on a typical vertical hollow shaft pump motor. Proper end play adjustment is important to keep the lower bearing from supporting the weight of the rotor and to allow for thermal growth within the motor. The motor in this video has a thrust bearing in the top and a standard ball-type guide bearing in the bottom, which is typical of vertical pump motors. There are other bearing arrangements with somewhat different procedures for setting end play, but here we’ll be working with the most common arrangement and procedure. 

This video and four others can be found now and in the future as separate entries in the Resource Library, on the new Training Video Library page and on the technical support information page. These videos are also available to the public as a special playlist on EASA's YouTube channel.

The electro-mechanical repair industry offers exciting and varied job opportunities for employees that want to be part of an industry that's essential to everyday life. Watch the video to learn about the opportunities available to you.
