The document provides guidelines for routine checks of centrifugal pumps, recommending checking the discharge and suction pressures, pressure differential at the suction strainer, bearing temperature, noise levels indicating cavitation, mechanical seal leakage, cooling medium temperature, lubrication oil system parameters like pressure, temperature and level, and power consumption in amps to monitor pump loading.

Pump Routine Checks
For centrifugal pumps check the following: Discharge pressure. Suction pressure. Pressure differential at suction strainer. Bearing temperature. Noise (cavitation) Mechanical seal leakage. Cooling medium temperature. Lube oil system (P,T and level) Power consumption in Amps. (means pump loading)
