A technique of safeguarding equipment involves deriving a pressure pulse amplitude based on operation of a pump of the equipment, and performing a comparison operation that compares the pressure pulse amplitude value to a predefined threshold. The technique further involves performing, in response to a result of the comparison operation indicating that the pressure pulse amplitude value has fallen below the predefined threshold, a remedial activity to prevent damage to the equipment or to prevent endangerment to persons affected by the failure of the equipment. For example, in the case of an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), the remedial action may be to transit the UAV from a densely populated area to a rural area where landing may be possible without injuring persons or damaging the UAV.
