Webinar Description:
Pumps are common in most plant environments and are critical to the operation of many processes. Even with proper installation and sizing, pump problems are a common concern for reliability programs. An understanding of the different pump types and their applications, coupled with an understanding of the types of failures that can be expected over time, can help a reliability program monitor these assets in an efficient and effective way.

Learning Takeaways:
1. A description of the different pump types that a maintenance person may run into in the plant environment.
2. An understanding of pump performance and failure modes.
3. Methods to use vibration monitoring and analysis to detect and diagnose these faults.
