(Attention! Check the location of the safety relief

 

 

 

 

valve and correct circulation pump insert).

 

Magnetic coupling is slipping

7

Check/correct assembly of rotor shaft and bear-

 

 

 

 

ings and magnetic coupling

 

 

 

Check start-up conditions for the magnetic cou-

 

 

 

 

pling in combination with applied electrical motor

 

 

 

 

if necessary add fly-wheel or apply soft start.

 

 

 

Check operating parameters against break-away

 

 

 

 

torque of the magnetic coupling.

 

 

 

Check if the pump is blocked, remove blockage.

Irregular flow

Liquid level in suction tank falls too low

8

Correct liquid supply

 

 

 

Provide a liquid level switch

 

Output too high

9

Reduce pump speed/or install a smaller pump.

 

 

 

Install by-pass line with check-valve.

 

Air sucking

10

Repair leak in suction line.

 

Cavitation

11

Reduce difference between pump and suction

 

 

 

 

tank level.

 

 

 

Increase suction pipe diameter.

 

 

 

Reduce length and simplify suction pipe (use as

 

 

 

 

few elbows and other fittings as possible).

 

 

 

 

Also see chapter 3.18 Installation.

 

Liquid vaporises in pump

12

Check temperature.

 

(e.g. by heating up)

 

Check vapour pressure of liquid.

 

 

 

Reduce pump speed. If necessary install a larger

 

 

 

 

pump.

Not enough capacity

Pump speed too low

13

Increase pump speed. Attention! Do not exceed

 

 

 

 

maximum speed and check NPSHr.

 

Air sucking

14

Repair leak in suction line.

 

Cavitation

15

Reduce difference between pump and suction

 

 

 

 

tank level.

 

 

 

Increase suction pipe diameter.

 

 

 

Reduce length and simplify suction pipe (use as

 

 

 

 

few elbows and other fittings as possible).

 

 

 

 

Also see section 3.18 Installation.

 

Back pressure too high

16

Check discharge pipe.

 

 

 

Increase pipe diameter.

 

 

 

Reduce working pressure.

 

 

 

Check accessories (filter, heat exchanger, etc.).

 

Safety relief valve set too low

17

Correct pressure setting.

 

Viscosity too low

18

Increase pump speed. Attention! Do not exceed

 

 

 

 

maximum speed and check NPSHr.

 

 

 

If necessary, install a larger pump.

 

Axial clearance

19

Check axial clearance and correct.

 

 

 

 

See section 3.21 Maintenance instructions.

 

Gases come free

20

Increase pump speed. Attention! Do not exceed

 

 

 

 

maximum speed and check NPSHr.

 

 

 

Install a larger pump
