What are Signs a Pump Spacer is Worn Down?

Regular maintenance and inspection of pump components are crucial for optimal performance and longevity. One of the key indicators a pump spacer is worn down is unusual noises emanating from the pump assembly. These noises often sound like knocking or rattling, which occur due to the misalignment caused by a worn spacer. Moreover, you might notice inefficiencies in pump operation, such as a decrease in pressure or flow rate. Another sign is visible damage or excessive wear on the spacer itself, which can be detected during routine checks. Although these symptoms might seem minor, addressing them promptly can prevent further damage to the pump and related components. Therefore, keeping an eye out for these wear indicators can help maintain your system’s reliability and efficiency.
