Why is my Andritz MC not pumping medium?

  If your Andritz Water Pump isn't pumping medium, several issues could be the cause. First, ensure the filling level in the stand pipe is adequate; if it's too low, correct it by increasing the level. Next, inspect the suction pipe, suction valve, and impeller for any clogs. Also, verify that the pump speed meets the required specifications. Check if the flow resistance in the pipe exceeds the pump's delivery head. Ensure the delivery-side valve is open and that the feed to the stand pipe is unobstructed. Finally, flush out both the delivery and stand pipes to clear any blockages.

  If you're experiencing an inadequate or irregular flow rate with your Andritz Water Pump, there are several potential causes. Check that the level in the stand pipe is sufficient to prevent vortex formation; if low, increase the filling level. Verify the motor's rotation and speed are correct. Also, ensure the consistency of the medium being pumped is as expected by checking the dilution water supply. Flush the delivery and stand pipes to remove any blockages. Make sure the delivery side valve isn't throttled and the flow resistance in the pipe is within the pump's delivery head capacity. Inspect the pump parts for wear, damage, or clogs, replacing parts as necessary. Finally, flush the degassing line to clear any obstructions.

Why is there a high power loss in my Andritz MC?

  High power loss in your Andritz Water Pump may be due to several reasons. First, check the motor speed to ensure it is not too high. Verify the motor's rotation direction is correct. Also, ensure that the flow resistance in the pipe does not exceed the pump's delivery head, and correct the valve setting. Check the dilution water supply to maintain the correct consistency of the medium being pumped. If the pump shaft is bent or running off-center, replace the pump shaft and bearing. Disassemble and inspect the inside of the pump for any rotating objects or pump parts causing friction. Lastly, inspect the pump parts for wear, damage, or clogs, replacing parts as necessary.
