Analysis and treatment of common faults of water pump

Different types of pumps, the performance of the form of failure is not the same, but in general, there are several common characteristics.

1. Inadequate flow

Reasons: lack of impact of water flow is water pipe leakage, at the end of valve leakage; clog water intakes; at the end of valve water depth insufficient; pump speed is too low; sealing ring or impeller excessive wear; absorbent such as excessive height. Vortex pump processing method: at the end of check valve and water pipe, blocking the leak source; clean up at the inlet of the mud or blockage; water depth at the end of valve must be higher than the inlet pipe diameter of 1.5 times, increase in water depth at the end of valve; check the power supply voltage and improve the pump speed, to replace the sealing ring or impeller; reduce water pump installation, or replace high lift pump.

2. Power consumption is too large

Cause: pump speed is too high; pump shaft bending or pump shaft and motor shaft misalignment or not parallel; lift pump selection is not appropriate; pump suction sand or a blockage; motor ball bearing damage and so on.
Treatment methods: check the circuit voltage, reduce speed pump; correction of the relative position of the pump shaft or adjust the pump and motor; select the appropriate pump head; clean sediment or obstruction; motor ball bearing replacement. Clear water pump.

3. Violent vibration or noise of the pump body

Cause: pump installation is not strong or pump installation is too high; motor ball bearing damage; pump shaft bending or the motor spindle is not concentric, not parallel, etc..
Methods: the installation of a stable pump or reduce the installation height of the pump; replacement motor ball bearings; correction of the main shaft of the bend or adjust the relative position of the pump and motor.

4. The drive shaft or motor bearings overheating

Cause: the lack of lubrication or bearing rupture, etc..
Method of treatment: fill in the lubricating oil or replace the bearing.

5. No water pump

Cause: pump body and suction pipe is not filled with water; the water level is lower than the pump water pump pipe, water pipe burst and so on.

Processing method: to preclude valve fault filling up with water; reduce water pump installation, and make the filter pipe under the water level in the, or moving water pipes or filters and then pumping; repair or replacement of water pipes.
