True or False: Before starting a centrifugal pump, it is necessary to thoroughly fill it with liquid and remove any air from it, while also maintaining a certain inlet pressure, commonly known as \"head\", in order to prevent the medium being transported from vaporizing at the pump’s inlet. If there is gas inside the pump, or if the liquid boils and vaporizes at the pump’s inlet, it can lead to \"gas locking\" or \"cavitation\", resulting in a sharp drop in the pump’s flow rate, head, and efficiency, and even damaging the pump.
