What’s the things you Should be attention physically⁉

✅ General centrifugal pump start up procedure:- 

Before pump start-up you must perform these tasks:-

 1️⃣ Open the suction valve , do priming by venting all the air inside the suction line by opening any vent or even the PG vent till liquid coming out then close , now you confirm no air inside the system to reduce the chances of pump getting cavitation

2️⃣ Open any recirculation or cooling lines.

3️⃣ Fully close or partially open the discharge valve, depending on system conditions. 

4️⃣ Start the driver.

5️⃣ Slowly open the discharge valve until the pump reaches the desired flow. 

6️⃣ Check the pressure gauge to ensure that the pump quickly reaches the correct discharge pressure. 

7️⃣ If the pump fail to reach the correct pressure, perform these steps: a. Stop the driver. b. Prime the  pump again. c. Restart the driver.

8️⃣ Monitor the pump while it is operating. a. Check the pump for bearing temperature, vibration, and noise. b. If the pumps exceed normal levels, then shut down the pump immediately and correct the problem.

 9️⃣ Repeat steps 7 and 6 until the pump runs properly.
