2. Collects eight samples that are spaced one second apart.
3. Averages these readings to establish the baseline vibration level.
4. Flashes a green LED after approximately twelve seconds.
For the first ten minutes, the green LED flashes every second for five consecutive flashes
and then pauses to take a vibration reading. More frequent measurements (every six
seconds) are taken in this startup period so that an alarm can be immediately detected.

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

Maintenance manual.
Pump operation precautions
General considerations
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 from unexpected heat generation. Do not overload the driver.
Ensure that the pump operating conditions are suitable for the driver. The driver can
overload in these circumstances:
• The specific gravity or viscosity of the fluid is greater than expected
• The pumped fluid exceeds the rated flow rate.
• Do not operate pump past maximum flow. For maximum flow refer to pump performance
curve.
• Do not operate pump below hydraulic or thermal minimum flow. For hydraulic minimum
flows refer to technical manual and pump performance curves. To calculate thermal
minimum flow, refer to HI Centrifugal Pump Design and Application ANSI/HI 1.3-2000.
Operation at reduced capacity
WARNING:
• Risk of breach of containment and equipment damage. Excessive vibration levels can
cause damage to bearings, stuffing box, seal chamber, and/or mechanical seal. Observe
pump for vibration levels, bearing temperature, and excessive noise. If normal levels are
exceeded, shut down and resolve.
• Risk of explosion and serious physical injury. Do not operate pump with blocked system
piping or with suction or discharge valves closed. This can result in rapid heating and
vaporization of pumpage.
• Risk of equipment damage and serious physical injury. Heat build-up can cause rotating
parts to score or seize. Observe pump for excessive heat build-up. If normal levels are
exceeded, shut down and resolve.
