What material considerations should be made?
Acceleration transducers (accelerometers) are typically used to measure vibration on stationary components.
The design does not use a dynamic shaft seal as a primary containment device.
Accumulations of solids must be cleaned for safety reasons, among others
Shaft sleeves and bearings are among replacement parts needed
Correction factors determine head and efficiency curves for the pump when handling viscous liquids.
