Spare Parts List

✓ Tick the parts you need. KSB UPA parts are matched to the pump size, number of stages, materials and the submersible motor fitted, so the type designation and order/serial number on your nameplate are all we need to get them right. Not sure which items? Add a photo of the nameplate and we’ll work it out for you.

SelectWear / Service ItemFunction & when to replace
Common Service Kits
Impeller & Stage SetThe impellers and stage (diffuser) casings that make up the hydraulic. Renew when output has dropped from wear by sand or abrasive water.
Pump Bearing SetThe water-lubricated pump bearings, enclosed on the UPA 200 to 300. Renew if worn, which shows as vibration or a drop in performance.
Wear RingsThe UPA 200, 250 and 300 use robust wear rings at the impellers. Replace when clearances have opened up and the head has fallen away.
Wear & Consumable Parts
Lift Check Valve PartsThe non-return valve at the pump discharge (anti-jam design available). Replace the valve plate or seat if water runs back down the riser at shut-down.
Suction StrainerKeeps larger solids out of the first stage. Replace if holed or corroded.
Motor Thrust Bearing PartsCarries the hydraulic thrust in the submersible motor. Renew if the motor runs rough or the shaft has axial play.
Cable Connection SetThe joint and connector materials that make a watertight splice between the motor lead and the drop cable. Use a new set every time the cable is joined.
Other Core Parts
Pump ShaftCarries the impellers through the stages. Replace if bent or worn at the bearings.
Suction Body / Motor LanternJoins the pump to the submersible motor and houses the coupling and intake. Replace if corroded or damaged.
Submersible MotorThe water-filled submersible motor (UMA asynchronous or UMA-S synchronous). We quote a matching motor from the motor data on your nameplate.
Motor CableThe submersible drop cable to the surface. Replace if the insulation is damaged or tests low.

How we confirm the exact part: KSB UPA parts depend on the pump size, hydraulic, number of stages, materials and the submersible motor fitted. KSB’s type designation gives the series, nominal size, design status, best-efficiency flow and stage count (e.g. UPA 150C-16/9), and the order/serial number pins down the build. Tick the items above and add a nameplate photo, and we’ll confirm the correct parts for your exact pump.

Troubleshooting

Pump delivers too little water

Likely cause: wrong rotation on a three-phase motor, worn internal parts, or the motor running on two phases. Action: swap two supply phases if rotation is wrong, check the fuses, and renew the worn stages, wear rings and bearings.

Irregular or noisy running

Likely cause: deposits in the impellers, too much air or gas in the water, or mechanical damage. Action: pull the pump and clean the impellers; if damaged, have the pump inspected and renew the worn parts.

Water runs back down the riser at stop

Likely cause: a worn or jammed lift check valve. Action: inspect the check valve and renew the valve parts.

Output falls off on a sandy bore

Likely cause: sand wear on the impellers, stages and wear rings. Action: renew the impeller and stage set and wear rings, and check the bore for sand ingress.

Motor trips or insulation tests low

Likely cause: damaged cable or a failed cable joint letting water in. Action: test the cable and motor insulation, remake the joint with a new connection set, or renew the cable.
