Troubleshooting Centrifugal Pumps and Their Systems
1st Edition - 2002 PDF ISBN: 1856173917 384 pages 53.29 MB
Modern centrifugal pumps are not complex machines. Usually they consist of a few castings, mouldings, or pressings that are pierced by a few wrought or turned components. Evidently, they are one of the ubiquitous machines, being comparable in numbers to the electric motor and the internal combustion engine.Despite their simplicity, Centrifugal pumps are still capable of posing complex puzzles during operation. This complexity usually arises from a permutation of circumstances that combine to require complex diagnosis. This means that many apparently simple pump operational problems need analysis so complex that it belies the machines simplicity.Stated simply, pumps are fine until they malfunction or break down. When that happens, the first priority is to get the pump functioning again and to keep 'down time' to a minimum. Many problems can be diagnosed and rectified using a combination of knowledge and experience, the latter coming over time. This book, written by a very experienced engineer, guides the reader through diagnostic pathways leading to logical explanations for the malfunctions and their correction.
