English term or phrase: bum out
Provide a pressure gauge between the strainer and the pump to monitor pressure drop due to the strainer.
As an increase of pressure drop indicates clogging of the strainer, stop the pump and clean the strainer.
If the suction pressure of the pump becomes low due to excessive pressure drop, it may cause pump bum out.

queimar-se
Explanation:
Acho que bum out é um error de teclação. Deve ser "burn out". E, se o filtro de uma bomba ficar entupido, pode queimar, sim!
