There are a bunch of ways to troubleshoot the coolant pump on your flat tensile sample preparation system. Here are just a few reasons the coolant system may be giving you a tough time:

1.The pump impeller may be jammed or there is too much resistance turning and as a result of this the motor is overloading. This could be due to sludge build up, corrosion form sitting, etc.

2.There could be a wiring issue from the breaker to the pump. If a wire is abraded or there is a bad connection there could be a short that can be causing the breaker to trip.

3.The internal motor issue. This is not common or likely, but it is a possibility.

These are all tested for function prior to leaving our facility and during the installation. If it is running and pumping fluid for 10 seconds then the issue is highly likely. Especially if it has been sitting idle for a long time. We always recommend that the belt is submerged in fluid during the periods of it not running.
