Pump Series Ep 4 - Seals, Couplings, & Cavitation: The Silent Pump Killers

Описание: Most pump failures don’t start with major breakdowns, they start with small, overlooked components. In this episode of the RSP Education Series, we take a closer look at the parts that make or break pump reliability, including seals, gaskets, couplings, motors, and suction and discharge connections.

This video explains how mechanical seals and packing prevent leaks, how different coupling types handle torque and misalignment, and how motor issues or poor nozzle design can lead to cavitation, wasted energy, or catastrophic failure. You’ll learn why missed details like dry running, abrasive fluids, or clogged suction lines are responsible for many pump failures and how understanding these components helps keep pumps running longer under pressure.
