ABSTRACT:
A deep well water pump system has a temperature probe (17) in the air space above the top bearing (12), preferably in the oil inlet chamber (26), and provides means for signalling abnormal temperatures to warning and system shutdown means. A method of detecting bearing overheating indirectly by sensing the shaft temperature and/or the temperature in the enclosed air space above the bearing is disclosed.
