Hi,
We have a hydrocarbon pump that is once run with water on the site, is it possible that this would cause high vibration on the pump?

Thank you.

You will need to provide more details in order to get a meaningful answer. What type of pump? What are the normal process conditions? What were the process conditions running on water?

The answer to your question is "yes." It is possible.

For future, you would get better answers for a pump question in the pump forum.
