Impeller - Water Pump
Application: EMD 645 and 710 series water pump systems
Part of our Water pump product line
The Impeller - Water Pump is identified by EMD Part No. 8248248 and DLW Part No. 16122008. Indian Railways records identify DLW 16122008 as the Impeller Water Pump to EMD Part No. 8248248. EMD parts references list 8248248 as the water-pump impeller and associate the component with EMD 710 and 645 series water-pump applications. For procurement and maintenance, the impeller should be identified using the correct EMD and DLW part numbers and the applicable water-pump configuration.
How This Part Works
The Impeller - Water Pump is the rotating component of the water-pump assembly responsible for moving coolant through the pump. It works within the water-pump housing and with the pump shaft and associated components to produce the coolant flow required by the engine cooling system. Correct impeller condition is important for maintaining the intended water-pump operation and coolant circulation.
Signs It's Time to Replace
- Visible impeller wear or damage: inspection may identify deterioration, damage, or abnormal wear of the impeller
- Reduced coolant flow: deterioration of the impeller can affect the water pump's ability to maintain the required coolant circulation
- Abnormal pump noise or vibration: changes during pump operation should be investigated as possible indications of deterioration in rotating components
- Impeller-to-housing clearance concerns: abnormal wear in the impeller or associated housing should be assessed during water-pump inspection
- Corrosion or surface deterioration: visible deterioration of the impeller should be evaluated during maintenance
Apex focuses on EMD engine components and water-pump system parts for EMD applications. The Impeller - Water Pump is identified by the specific EMD Part No. 8248248 and DLW Part No. 16122008, allowing customers to source the component using established EMD and DLW references. This part-number-based identification helps distinguish the water-pump impeller from other components within the EMD water-pump assembly and supports accurate component selection for applicable EMD 645 and 710 series water-pump systems.
