EPRI Report NP-1571, Causes of Repetitive Feedwater Pump Failures, October 1980. The data derived for this report confirms that the same statement is applicable today, fifteen years later (Reference 3). The NMAC Main Feedwater Pump Maintenance Guide is the latest EPRI sponsored effort directed toward boiler feed pumps in the fossil and nuclear power generation applica- tion areas. For two decades, EPRI has contributed research and development direction in the attempt to improve the awareness of the industry to the critical importance of the boiler feed pump to the reliability of the power generation facility. The failure of a boiler feed pump has economic ramifications in the cost of a forced outage or a reduc- tion in generated power. Conclusions from available data sources, including NPRDS and NMAC plant surveys, show that a majority of failure symptoms are leaks from lube oil systems, stuffing box shaft sealing systems, water piping and gaskets. In the NM AC evaluation of all maintenance issues, reactor boiler feedpumps rose in their combined ranking from thirteenth place in 1991, to fifth place m 1992, to third place in 1993. In 1995, pumps still rank in fourth place as a maintenance issue. This guide is directed only to the boiler feed pump applications in nuclear power generation facilities. In boiling water reactor facilities, the boiler feed pumps are utilized as reactor feed pumps. In pressurized water reactor facilities, the boiler feed pumps are utilized as steam gen- erator feed pumps. For purposes of simplicity, in this guide, the boiler feed pump m either type of facility will be referred to as a main feedwater pump. This guide provides basic information on the design, construction and maintenance of the main feedwater pump equipment supplied by the six pump manufacturers to the domestic United States nuclear power generation industry. This guide is intended to provide useful information to all disciplines and skills associated with the maintenance of main feedwater pump equipment, the planning of its maintenance, and the monitor- ing and evaluation of its performance. Data basically derived from 1988 onward is utilized to determine failure modes and effects analysis. The use of diagnostics is dis- cussed and its practical application in illustrative case histories is included. Predictive and preventive maintenance programs utilizing new technology are available and affordable today where they were previously unattainable.
