A centrifugal
pump has a rotating impeller in a chamber and a motor to turn the impeller.
Centrifugal
pumps come in two forms: horizontal pumps, with horizontal impeller
shafts and vertical impellers, and vertical pumps, with an opposite orientation,
like a sump pump. You can often notice problems with a centrifugal pump by the
sound the pump makes or a change in the pump's rate of discharge or suction.
There are five problems that are directly observable when the
pump is in
operation and three problems that can be ascertained from the pump's maintenance
files.
