Water pumping signs
Water pumps can have different types and be used in different projects. In order for a pump to have proper performance and efficiency, it is necessary to meet various conditions, such as proper installation, appropriateness of water pump capacity and water demand, etc. Water pumps can suffer from lack of suction and eventually burns due to problems such as low water pressure, overworking, system defects, etc.
Reduction of water flow in the plumbing system
One of the most important and main symptoms of water pump burnout is the decrease in water flow. Of course, it should be noted that sometimes the reduction of water flow may be due to problems such as clogging and blockage of water pipes or their leakage. In order to be sure of the source of the water flow reduction, first all pipes and connections should be checked and then the water pressure in the pump should be measured with a pressure gauge. Pressure measurement should be done at several points in order to determine the exact location of the pressure drop and finally proceed to fix the problem and repair the parts. In fact, when the water flow decreases, it can indicate problems such as half-burning of the electric motor, damage of the electric motor, leakage in gaskets and connections, clogging and blockage of pipes, wear of the impeller and internal parts of the pump, etc.
A lot of water pumps
Another main and important sign of a burning water pump is an unusual increase in pump noise. When the water pump makes a sound like a few small marbles shaking inside a metal can, it indicates that the vanes are punctured or the internal part has a problem. Basically, this sound can indicate falling rings, bubbling, blocking, etc. in the internal parts of the pump. The production of abnormal noises in the pump that can lead to its burning can be due to various factors and reasons, the most important of which include the failure to install the pump correctly and the pump not being firmly in place, damage to the pump impeller and its internal parts, changes in electrical voltage and fluctuations. It and... occur and its origin and source must be determined.
Hot water pump
One of the other signs that show that the water pump is burnt or partially burnt is the increase in its temperature. In fact, the heating of the pump can have various reasons, the most important of which are not enough water entering the pump, damage to the bearings and internal parts of the pump, power fluctuations and inappropriate voltage, damage to the electric motor of the pump, the pump impeller being out of place, Blockage of the air valve and... are. In order to identify the main reason for the heat of the pump, you should never open the pump immediately and you should wait for it to dry well. Opening the pump in hot weather can cause sudden pressure inside the ivy.
Turning off and turning on the water pump
Shutting down and not turning on the water pump, vacuum pump, etc. can be one of the most important reasons for the water pump to burn, and this problem can be caused by the faulty mechanical automatic switch. This switch can work by increasing and decreasing the amount of water pressure. If the automatic mechanical switch is not adjusted, it can cause the pump to turn on and off abnormally, and finally, this turning on and off can lead to its burning.
Reduce pump speed after starting pump work
If after turning on the water pump, it takes more time to start working and it has a lower speed compared to the past, and in fact it starts slower, it can indicate that the pump is burning. In fact, this slow speed can indicate an increase in the clearance space of the water pump. Also, if the clearance space of the water pump is suitable, the slowness of the pump speed can be caused by factors such as leakage in the connections, tightening of the screws of the washers, blockage of the connections and pipes, damage to the drain plug, half-burning of the electric motor or its failure, air blockage in the pump, etc. All the mentioned items should be checked and if necessary, fixed.
Half -burning water pump
Sometimes it is possible that the water pump is burning in such a way that it continues to work, but there are some shortcomings in its performance. In this case, the water pump is half burnt. The half burning of the pump can cause the complete burning of the pump after some time. Among the most important signs of a water pump being half-burned, we can mention things such as increased pump noise and decreased water pressure, connection of the pump body, problems with the source under pressure, leaking pipes, not adjusting the control set, etc. To prevent the pump from burning completely, it must be checked by experts and skilled people.
