Drive Belt Replacement
Service consists of all equipment, tools and personnel to perform the following scope of work:
Perform a controlled shutdown of the pumping unit and execute all necessary energy isolation and verification procedures, according to current OSHA standards.
Remove necessary guarding and safety devices to access the belt drive system.
Asses the current state of alignment and document the following values:
• Sheave alignment (horizontal, vertical, axial).
• Sheave face and rim runout (radial and axial).
• Motor base soft foot.
Disconnect and remove necessary drive brake components, conduit brackets, motor base fasteners, shims, and drive belt.
Clean and inspect the pumping unit motor mounting base foundation to confirm a flat surface.
Clean and inspect the grooves of the driver and driven sheaves with a sheave gauge, hardware and mounting hubs (where applicable) to confirm no damage or excessive wear exists.
Inspect all drive brake components, conduit, motor base shims and fasteners for damage or excessive wear.
Install the new drive belt and set proper belt tension according to the manufacturer’s specifications.
Perform a precision alignment to confirm sheaves are aligned throughout the following parameters :
• Horizontal
• Vertical
• Axial
Torque the motor base fasteners. Inspect motor base for soft foot and adjust as necessary.
Reinstall all drive brake components and safety guarding.
Disconnect pumping unit from the well polished rod
Perform a startup of the machine and operate for 30 minutes to allow the drive belts to properly seat.
Shutdown the machine and recheck the alignment and belt tension. Readjust belt as necessary allowed for thermal growth.
Reconnect the polished rod to the unit and perform a restart of the machine.
Provide a copy of a detailed service report for the specific asset for future reference, containing all findings and values resulting from the services provided.
