Normal operation.
At high discharge pressures and low motor
speeds, the motor will cog during the
discharge portion of the stroke. This is only a
problem if it causes excessive heat in the
motor, or stalls for long periods of time.
Torque too high.
Reduce discharge pressure.
Motor Cogging.
Typically associated
with running at
extremely low speeds
(<10%)
Speed setting too low.
Increase speed setting. If the standard pump
operating conditions call for the pump motor
to operate at high turndowns (<10%), it is
wise to change the stroke End Point to reduce
the Maximum End Point value. Refer to
Section 7 – General Operation: End Point
Setup for more information.
Tachometer not adjusted properly
Refer to Tachometer Trouble Shooting or
contact Technical Services for readjustment
procedures.
