Centrifugal Pump FMEA Analysis

The document is a failure mode and effects analysis (FMEA) for a centrifugal pump. It lists potential failure modes for the pump's process functions, their potential effects and causes, current process controls, and recommended actions to address failures. Six failure modes are analyzed: no liquid delivery, insufficient flow, low discharge pressure, excessive vibration, overheating, and requiring too much power. Recommended actions include filling the pump, cleaning or replacing the impeller, reducing suction pipe length, replacing the bearing, and evaluating piping.
