The submersible borehole pumps are generally maintenance-free. In order to detect
indications of potential damage at an early stage, regular checks are required.
Possible indications of potential damage:
▪
Temperature rise in the fluid handled
▪
Increased sand content of the fluid handled
▪
Change in current consumption
▪
Change in head / flow rate
▪
Change in frequency of starts
▪
Increase in noise and vibration levels
The submersible borehole pump need not be removed from the well/tank regularly
for inspection.
For any queries and repeat orders, particularly when ordering spare parts, specify the
following information given on the name plate:
▪
Pump and/or motor type series and size
