Power End Lubrication
The power end lubrication system provides lubrication for the triplex pump's crankshaft and the triplex pump's crossheads. The power end lubrication system is driven by a hydraulic pump that is mounted on the auxiliary drive for the transmission. The power end lubrication system is active when the deck engine is operating. A 190 L (50 US gal) oil reservoir is located on the rear of the skid at the skid's edge. The oil reservoir supplies oil to the hydraulic system. The reservoir should be filled with lubricating oil and the oil reservoir should be kept full. An oil cooler inside the deck radiator cools the lubrication system. A thermostatic valve is located in the hydraulic line immediately after the pump. The thermostatic valve routes oil to the cooler when the oil temperature reaches 60 °C (140 °F).Fluid End Lubrication
The fluid end lubrication system provides lubrication for the packing for the triplex pump. The lubrication system is an air over the top of oil type. The system is driven by air pressure. The lubrication reservoir is an ASME coded carbon steel pressure vessel that is registered with the National Board. The lubrication reservoir has a 60.5 L (16 US gal) capacity with 101.6 mm (4 inch) filler cap, a level indicator and a 19.05 mm (0.75 inch) drain valve. The lubrication system includes the following components:
Solenoid valve
Pressure regulator
Flow divider valve
Flow control valve
Check valves
Relief valve
Liquid filled pressure gauge
Carbon steel catch tankThe carbon steel catch tank has a drain valve on the bottom of the tank. The lube system is off when the driveline brake is on. The oil drain is located under the triplex pump pistons. Oil drains into a carbon steel catch tank that is located at the rear of the skid next to the power end lubrication tank. The carbon steel catch tank should be drained regularly. For information on the proper lubricant to use, see this Operation and Maintenance Manual, "Plate Locations and Film Locations".Suction Stabilizer
The SPS342 Skid Mounted Pumper is equipped with a flow stabilizer in order to reduce pulsation in the fluid end and the discharge lines. The stabilizer is installed at the forward end of the suction piping. The stabilizer must be properly charged and maintained. The internal cartridge must be charged with nitrogen to 206 kPa (30 psi).Air Starting System
The air starting system consists of the following components: air starting motor, lubricator and strainer. Inlet air is supplied by the customer through a set of tanks. The air is then dispersed to the following systems:
Packing lube tank
Brake caliper (driveline)
"Emergency kill" system
Main junction box (purge)
Large gauge panel (purge)
Starting air systemThe
