Liquid Ring Vacuum Pump Maintenance Services

For more than three decades, Vacuum Pump Systems, Inc. has supported companies nationwide with expert liquid ring vacuum pump maintenance and repair. Most of our customers handle routine maintenance in-house, but when specialized expertise or major service is required, our technicians can step in to assist directly or manage a full rebuild at our repair facility.

Our goal is to help you keep your pumps running efficiently — with the guidance, parts, and professional backup you need to stay operational.

Preventive Maintenance for Liquid Ring Vacuum Pumps

A well-maintained liquid ring vacuum pump delivers steady vacuum performance, reduced energy use, and fewer costly shutdowns. Over time, erosion, scaling, cavitation, and contamination can gradually affect output and reliability.

We help you stay proactive by providing:

  • Clear maintenance guidelines your team can follow on-site.

  • Technical consultation by phone or email when problems arise.

  • Inspection and rebuild service when in-house repair isn’t possible.

Whether you operate Vooner, Dekker, or similar liquid ring systems, our experienced team can advise your maintenance staff, supply replacement parts, or perform a rebuild when needed.

Recommended Maintenance Practices

To maintain efficiency and avoid premature wear, follow these core maintenance steps:

1. Inspect and Clean Regularly — Remove residue buildup and check cones, rotors, and seals for wear.

2. Monitor Vacuum Levels — Track performance and watch for vibration or cavitation.

3. Replace Worn Components Promptly — Swap bearings, gaskets, or shaft seals when efficiency drops.

4. Schedule Periodic Rebuilds — After extended service, a factory-standard rebuild restores full performance.

Need help identifying which components to replace or when to rebuild? VPS can evaluate your pump and provide a detailed estimate.

Common Maintenance Issues

Routine care helps prevent issues such as:

  • Reduced vacuum capacity from worn or corroded parts

  • Cavitation and erosion due to improper water balance

  • Bearing and shaft wear from friction or contamination

  • Efficiency loss caused by entrained solids in the liquid ring

When on-site maintenance isn’t enough, our repair and rebuild team can restore your pump to factory-level specifications quickly and reliably.
