Lift Station Preventative Maintenance Services

Brabazon has over 30 years of experience in the repairs and rebuilding of all brands of industrial pumps and blowers for wastewater/water treatment. Brabazon offers 24-hour emergency service in the Midwest with locations in Green Bay, Milwaukee, Wausau, Minneapolis/St. Paul and Northern Illinois.

Regular preventative maintenance can save lift station owners from costly repairs associated with downtime and expensive emergency services. Frequent impeller inspection is important because worn impellers will cause pumps to run less efficiently creating more run time on the pumps and using more electricity to operate. It may even cause premature failure of the pump motor if left undetected.

Brabazon performs complete electrical checks including vibration reading/monitoring, motor meg testing along with amperage and voltage readings. All findings will be documented in a report and pictures of each lift station and pump(s) will be provided, if necessary.

Motor bearing (upper and lower) vibration measurement and trend documentation.
