Pumps Reliability and Efficiency 2011

Upon Completing this 2-day training, delegates will be able to:

• Learn how to read a pump curve and how pumps really operate
• Understand how the system controls the pump
• Learn how the flow rate impacts on pump reliability – what is the
reliable operating range
• Design better systems and select better pumps, leading to improved reliability

• Learn why pumps vibrate and why seals and bearings fail and prevent such failures
• Determine the assessment methods to identify Future Potential
• Avoid operational problems that lead to pump failures
• Understand what cavitation is, why it occurs and how to avoid it
• Know how pumps should be installed and commissioned – avoid those common commissioning failures
• Implement best practice in pump monitoring and maintenance
• Get to the root cause of pump failures and solve recurring problems
