Conhagen designed and upgraded the pumping equipment for NASA’s testing of the Artemis Space Launch System. Located at Stennis Space Center in Mississippi.
Historically these boiler feed water pumps have suffered from premature failures and reduced performance. Damaged balance drums or wear rings have led to failed bearings …
During a freeze event in Texas, a major refinery experienced failures of several bearing housings. The bearings were water cooled and when the plant lost power they also lost cooling water flow. The cast iron bearing housings cracked from water freezing in the housing.
Conhagen repaired a failed bearing and bearing housing on a paper mill crane over 120 feet in the air, preventing the dusruptuion of normal production over Labor Day weekend.
