For a centrifugal pump with two units in operation and one as backup, can both pumps be started at the same time when starting the pump? Can they all be shut down at the same time when shutting down?

Centrifugal pumps with two in use and one as a spare can have both pumps started simultaneously at startup, which improves work efficiency. However, when shutting down, it is recommended to turn off one pump first and then the other to ensure safety. At the same time, it is necessary to conduct regular maintenance checks on the two pumps to ensure their proper operation. .

The equipment itself is fine; the key issue is whether the existing pipelines can meet the flow requirements, and whether this operation is permitted by the process system
