a) Stop the driver.
b) Prime the pump again.
c)
Restart the driver.
6.
Monitor the pump while it is operating:
a) Check the pump for bearing temperature, excessive vibration, and noise.
b) If the pump exceeds normal levels, then shut down the pump immediately and correct the prob-
lem.
A pump can exceed normal levels for several reasons. See Troubleshooting for information about
possible solutions to this problem.
7.
Repeat steps 5 and 6 until the pump runs properly.

2 Equipment Health Monitor
WARNING:
Explosive hazard and risk of personal injury. Heating to high temperatures could cause com-
bustion of the condition monitor. Never heat the condition monitor to temperatures in excess of
149°C | 300°F or dispose of in a fire.

5.12 Pump operation precautions
General considerations
NOTICE:
On ring oil-lubricated pumps, remove oil ring viewing port plugs to verify the following:
•
The oil rings are properly positioned in the grooves on the shaft.
•
The oil rings are turning.
•
The oil rings are throwing oil.
NOTICE:
•
Vary the capacity with the regulating valve in the discharge line. Never throttle the flow
from the suction side. This action can result in decreased performance, unexpected heat
generation, and equipment damage.
•
Risk of equipment damage on pure or purge-oil mist-lubricated units. Remove the viewing
port plugs to verify that oil mist is flowing properly. Reinstall the plugs after confirming.
•
Risk of equipment damage from unexpected heat generation. Do not overload the driver.
Ensure that the pump operating conditions are suitable for the driver. The driver can over-
load in these circumstances:
•
The specific gravity or viscosity of the fluid is greater than expected
•
The pumped fluid exceeds the rated flow rate.
•
Check the bearing temperatures using a pyrometer or other temperature-measuring de-
vice. Monitor the bearing temperature frequently during initial operation in order to deter-
mine if a bearing problem exists, as well as to establish normal bearing operating temper-
ature.
