🔍 Key Concepts

• Centrifugal pump shaft sleeves and their purpose in protecting the shaft from wear and leakage • Common causes of scoring on a pump shaft sleeve (e.g., improper lubrication, foreign particles, mechanical misalignment) • Best-practice maintenance actions when damage or abnormal wear is discovered on rotating machinery components

💭 Think About

• If a protective sleeve on a rotating shaft shows localized scoring, what does that tell you about current operating conditions and future risk if left unchanged? • Which options focus on actually correcting the root cause of the damage versus only changing operating conditions? • When you see physical damage on a part that is designed to be replaceable, what is the usual maintenance philosophy: adjust operating parameters, re‑align, or repair/replace the damaged part after eliminating the cause?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which choice both eliminates the cause of the scoring and restores the integrity of the pump component. • Eliminate any option that ignores the existing damage and merely changes speed, lubrication flow, or alignment without dealing with the scored area itself. • Verify which answer reflects standard preventive maintenance practice for protective sleeves on centrifugal pump shafts, not for controlling system speed or flow.
