Before a facility pump completely fails, it typically gives off warning signs. The pump failure warning signs include:
- Leaking. One of the most common causes of pump leaks is seal failure.
- Slowing speed. A worn out or clogged pump can cause pump speeds to slow significantly.
- Noisy and/or excessive vibration. Bearing failure, an unbalanced rotor or impeller, or a bent / misaligned shaft are some of the common causes.
- Oil Leaks. Worn gaskets and corrided hardware may be the cause.
