for at least 20 minutes. Ensure that
the cooling water supply is correctly
connected to the EPX pump, and is
switched on and meets the flow and
pressure requirements of
Section 2.4. Restart the pump.

noise, but it is not harmful to the
pump. It is recommended that the
pump be allowed to come to a halt
before the run signal is re-applied.
