CAUSE
CORRECTIVE ACTION
1. ELECTRICAL
A. NO VOLTAGE IN POWER SYSTEM
Check phase-to-phase on line side of starter contactor.
Check circuit breaker or fuses.
B. NO VOLTAGE ON ONE PHASE
Check phase voltage on line side of starter contactor. Isolate open
(THREE PHASE UNITS) circuit (circuit breaker, fuse, broken connections, etc.)
C. LOW VOLTAGE AT MOTOR
Running voltage across each leg of motor must be ± 10% of nominal voltage
shown on nameplate.
D.
MOTOR LEADS IMPROPERLY GROUPED
FOR VOLTAGE
Refer to lead grouping diagram on motor nameplate.
E. CONTROL FAILURE
Check control device, starter contactor, H-O-A selector switch, etc., for malfunction.
F. THERMAL OVERLOAD SWITCH OPEN
Check for drag or other overload.
G. INSULATION FAILURE
Check motor or windings to ground with megohmmeter.
H. OPEN WINDINGS
Check leg-to-leg with ohmmeter.
I. FREQUENCY VARIATION
Check frequency of power system.
Must be less than 5% variation from motor nameplate rating.
J. WRONG DIRECTION OF ROTATION
Reverse rotation of three phase motor by interchanging any two leads.
See Manufacturer's Instructions for reversing single phase motor.
2. MECHANICAL
A.
FLOW THROUGH PUMP COMPLETELY
OR PARTIALLY OBSTRUCTED
Locate and remove obstruction. Refer to Repair Instructions for disassembly.
B. PUMP NOT PRIMED
Reprime. Inspect suction system for air leaks.
C. INTERNAL LEAKAGE
Check impeller for wear of controlled clearances. (See Repair Instructions.)
D. LOOSE PARTS
Inspect, repair.
