一、Daily inspection and maintenance
       1、Check the working state of the pump:
        Regularly check whether the centrifugal pump is operating normally and whether there is abnormal noise or vibration.
        Check whether the bearing of the pump is well lubricated and there is no leakage.
        Check the pump seal is good, there are no leaks.
       2、Clean pump inlet and outlet and filter:
        Clean pump inlet and outlet and filter regularly, using a soft brush or high pressure water gun to thoroughly remove sediment and impurities.
       3、Check and adjust the shaft alignment of the pump:
        Regularly check the shaft alignment of the centrifugal pump to ensure that the shaft alignment is correct to prevent vibration and noise.
       4、Check and tighten bolts and nuts:
        Check and tighten loose bolts and nuts frequently to ensure the stability of the pump structure.
       5、Keep the pump body clean:
        Often wipe the liquid, dust or other dirt on the centrifugal pump unit and the centrifugal pump pipe to keep the pump body clean.
       二、Second, regular maintenance点击获取帮助
       1、Change lubricant:
        Replace the lubricant at specified intervals to ensure normal lubrication of the pump. If the centrifugal pump works within the first month, the lubricating oil is replaced after 100 hours, and the oil is changed once every 500 hours.
       2、Check and replace seals:
        Regularly check the wear of the seal, such as wear or aging should be replaced in time to ensure the sealing performance of the pump.
       3、Check and replace bearings:
        Regularly check the bearing wear, such as large wear should be replaced in time.
       4、Cleaning filter and inlet:
        Clean the filter and inlet of the pump to ensure the normal operation of the pump.

三、Three, seasonal maintenance
       1、Winter maintenance:
        In winter, it is necessary to drain the residual water in the pump in time to prevent ice damage to the pump.
       2、Summer maintenance:
 In the summer, keep the pump cooling system unblocked to prevent overheating damage to the pump.


四、Other precautions
1、Lubrication system:
         Pay attention to the quality and type of lubricant, choose the lubricant suitable for the pump.
2、Mechanical seal:
         Do not allow the mechanical seal to work under dry grinding, and ensure that the lubrication of the mechanical seal should be clean and free of solid particles.
3、Start and stop:
         before starting, the pump (motor) should be turned several times to avoid breaking and damaging the sealing ring.
         When stopping use, first close the gate valve, pressure gauge, and then stop the motor.
4、 Control flow and head:
         Try to control the flow rate and head of the centrifugal pump within the range indicated on the label to ensure that the centrifugal pump operates at a high efficiency point.
        Through the above daily maintenance specifications, the normal operation of the single-stage single-suction centrifugal pump can be ensured, its service life can be extended, and the possibility of failure can be reduced.
