Common failures & inspection points
Mechanical shaft seal condition inspection via purging connections (nitrogen/air purging) for cargo/oil or lubricating oil leakage detection
Oil level monitoring in seal system pressure vessel and sealing fluid condition assessment
Bearing and wear ring lubrication status verification (bearings cooled/lubricated by pumped cargo - critical for dry-run prevention)
Vibration, noise, and motor load analysis for early indication of developing equipment issues
Discharge and suction pressure monitoring, flow rate verification, and temperature trending
Cavitation risk assessment, particularly during final discharge stages with boiling-point cargoes
Electric motor condition (cold/warm start cycle limits, 1-hour mandatory rest period between restart attempts)
Intermediate shaft bearing positions and alignment verification along piping column assembly
