Summary:PURPOSE: To provide a fault diagnostic method in which a fault can be diag nosed without installing a special sensor by a method wherein a fault warning is output when the motor current value of a pump which has been loaded exceeds a preset lower limit value. CONSTITUTION: In a data processor 1, a motor current value IO is input at a time when, e.g. pumps for which the number of operating pumps has been controlled are loaded, and data is sampled at a rate of one time/day or the like. Then, the motor current value is compared with a preset motor lower limit value IOL, and a lower limit warning is judged. When the motor current value exceeds the lower limit value IOL, a warning generation device 6 outputs a warning via a central processing unit 3, and the corresponding pumps are stopped. In addition, data on the current value IO which has been sampled by the data processor 1 is stored by a data storage device 2, the data is edited by the unit 3 so as to be output to a display 4 and a printer 5, and a trend control graph or the like is displayed or printed.
