Easy-Laser E710 Shaft Alignment
The measuring system for all stages of machine set-up Easy-Laser® E710 is an alignment system that is complete in its full meaning. It does not just give you all the functions for shaft alignment, it also gives the opportunity to check the machine base and any bearing play using the standard equipment! Programs for soft foot checks, vertical/flange mounted machines and cardan/offset mounted* machines are also included. Using the accessories you can also align sheaves and pulleys with digital precision and check vibration levels. No other system on the market can offer this flexibility! Large, clear colour screen, wireless measuring units (included as standard), long operating life and robust design give a measurement system that is both reliable and easy to use. Easy to use = fast and efficient When we talk about simplicity we mean several things, for example, simple to place or mount the measurement equipment on the measurement object, easy to perform the measurement and easy to interpret the measurement result. With Easy-Laser® E710 you can measure all types of rotating machine, large and small, equally well, regardless of shaft diameter. One new feature is the barcode reader*, which enters the machine dimensions with literally one swipe! This makes it easier for new operators who don't need to search through long lists of machine templates with descriptions that are difficult to understand. Quite simply, easier to do correctly! Wireless measuring units (laser/detector) enable you to work more freely. The measurement values can be registered with only 40° rotation of the shafts. You can then align it "live" using the measuring units in any position around the shaft. The read off unit program is available in several different languages which facilitates use; Chinese, English, Spanish, German, French, Portuguese and Swedish. The programs guide you step-by-step through the measuring procedure for the perfect measuring result..

 The Case of the Underperforming Sample Pump
We supplied a small, close coupled, centrifugal water pump to a local Electric Utility.
The service is to periodically take water from the circulating water system and run it through an analyzer and then to drain. The hydraulic conditions were 25 gpm @ 45' TDH.
The pump was shipped and installed.
The customer called to say it was not meeting performance. When asked what was not correct, they said they felt it was not "pumping enough water."
One of our salesman visited the site to inspect it.
