Abstract: Technologies are generally described for pump devices that include an adaptive cutwater and impeller arrangement. The power end of the pump device can be coupled to a motor to drive an impeller. The primer plate and impeller of the pump device are removable from the pump casing such that the primer plate and impeller can be replaced or modified as desired for different applications. In some examples, the pump casing includes a primer plate that is removable from the pump casing, where the primer plate includes a discharge cutwater tongue that is specifically spaced and sized to service an impeller of a desired design. The discharge cutwater tongue and impellers in the pump device may thus be serviced for replacement parts, as well as to modify the pump device for different fluids of different fluids properties or hydraulic requirements as may be needed in different applications.

Abstract: A sensing module apparatus is provided for monitoring a vibrating machine or structure, such as a pump, which include three mounting points on the apparatus for securely mounting the apparatus to the vibrating machine or structure. The three-point mount configuration provides the sensor module with a very rigid mount connection to virtually any surface condition, including flat, curved or irregular. All six degrees of freedom (X, Y, Z, theta-X, theta-Y and theta-Z) are properly constrained. The three-point mount also provides an air barrier or gap between the sensing module and the equipment surface, allowing the sensor to be mounted to higher surface temperature devices.

Abstract: A method and apparatus are provided for adjusting an impeller in a motor and impeller assembly of a pumping device.

Abstract: A pumping device is provided having a motor arranged in relation to a pumping assembly, the motor having a housing and a shaft extending therefrom for rotating an impeller in the pumping assembly. The pumping device has a motor seal arranged therein between the shaft and the housing, and has a pump seal arranged between the shaft and the pump assembly. The pumping device features an adapter arranged between a motor housing and a pumping assembly that has a third seal arranged in relation to the motor's shaft for providing additional sealing protection for the motor seal. The third seal may be a labyrinth, magnetic or lip seal, and may be located on the motor end of the close coupled adapter to function as a primary sealing device. The pump may be a close coupled motor/centrifugal pump or a close coupled motor/positive displacement pump.
