Should the Haas coolant pump be running?

[jphelps]

I was in the area and heard water running. Given the flooding we’ve had I took a look and the Haas coolant pump appears to be running. There’s no one on the machine and I doubt anybody’s used it in days.

yes its fine. it runs constantly, but it is not actually the haas pump. It would have to be on for that.
it is an external pump that simply keeps the coolant from stagnating.

“Normal”, I think…

Haas Cutting Fluid cycling through?

Honestly not even sure if it is the cutting fluid, but the Haas appears to be cycling fluid. The machine is mostly covered in plastic and is definitely not in use. I don’t ever remember running across the Haas doing this while passing by the machine. I’m guessing this is expected and from my side just a case of “I hear running water when I wasn’t expecting to hear running water.”
