Heavy Pump Fitter

As a Heavy Pump Fitter, you will be responsible for undertaking the following:

• Adhere strictly to safety protocols and guidelines while performing tasks on water services equipment, identifying and mitigating potential safety hazards within the work environment
• Diagnose and execute repairs on engines for Sykes & Tru Flow water transfer systems, including trailer-mounted and skid pumps
• Install key engine components such as water pumps, fuel pumps, radiators, turbochargers, injectors, and fuel lines; perform valve adjustments, replace rocker cover gaskets, and rear main seals
• Collaborate with team members to address engine-related issues efficiently and effectively
• Diagnose and resolve faults in wet ends of pumps, ensuring operational efficiency; disassemble pumps, replace mechanical seals, and remove/replace faulty wet ends using forklifts and gantry cranes
• Set up and maintain wet end tolerances accurately; install, align, and ensure proper coupling between pumps and engines
• Troubleshoot and repair faults within pump control systems; identify issues with sensors (coolant temperature, speed, oil pressure, volute temperature, flow switches), diagnose wiring harness faults, and operate pumps through controllers such as Sykes S35 & S37, ComAp, and Tru Flow systems
• Commission repaired pumps to confirm proper functionality, verify alignment and coupling, and ensure operational engine protections (low flow, high temperature, oil pressure, and coolant temperature)
• Maintain and repair generators, including FG Wilson, Western Diesel, and PR Power models; replace essential components such as fuel pumps, water pumps, coolant sensors, radiators, alternators, belts, and mechanical lift pumps
• Conduct load testing to validate the functionality and reliability of repaired equipment
