EEPEX creates direct access at the beginning of the second quarter of 2021. With the so-called Rotor Joint Access (RJA) and Drive Joint Access (DJA) for the new BNM range, the Bottropbased company has ensured that, from now on, one wrench will suffice for the maintenance of large standard pumps with an individual component weight of up to 300 kg. Due to the size of larger pumps, inspection and maintenance can be challenging requiring special tools, piping to be dismantled, and even the pump to be moved out of place in some instances. The pump specialist and expert in digital solutions now has a remedy: RJA and DJA for large standard pumps allows access to both the rotor and drivesided joint. The often time-consuming disassembly or even complete removal for maintenance is now a thing of the past.

The maintenance solutions were developed on the basis of the already
