    Restoring Vital Water Infrastructure:
    A Wisconsin Village's Success Story

    Expert repairs for peak performance.

    When a Village in Wisconsin encountered issues with one of its water tower pumps, it sought the expertise of Apex Industrial Automation for a dependable solution. The pump, an essential double-inlet industrial split-case type, was experiencing reduced suction due to worn wear rings, among other issues. Our adept Field Service team swiftly removed the pump and transported it to our repair shop for a comprehensive inspection. The initial pump repair involved wear of parts, including seals, sleeves, and gaskets, for which we replaced with OEM parts and adjusted the wear rings to restore their optimal performance.

    Following the success of the first repair, the Village entrusted Apex Industrial Automation with the repair of a second pump. This time, the issue involved a degraded impeller, casing ring, and wear ring, all of which our team expertly replaced. Our commitment to excellence and attention to detail has been consistently recognized, leading the Village to return to us for the repair of additional pumps.

    Our ability to deliver reliable, efficient, and timely solutions has solidified our reputation as a trusted partner for industrial pump repair services. Whether you’re facing a similar issue or have other repair needs, Apex Industrial Automation is here to ensure your equipment is back in top working condition.
