    This document summarizes two case studies of pump conditioning monitoring. In the first case, a single-stage end suction pump was found to have failing bearings every 6 weeks due to a too-small orifice size, which was replaced and solved the problem. In the second case, a two-stage constant speed pump was experiencing high vibration that increased with output due to missing casing wear ring inserts, which were replaced and reduced vibration.
