PROBLEMS WITH FLOW RATE
The pump produces no flow
•
The pump capacity is adjusted to « 0 % » : Adjust
the capacity to the desired value and lock the stroke
adjustment knob.
•
The liquid end is unprimed: release the pressure on
the discharge pipe and prime the liquid end, or
check the leak-tightness of the suction circuit.
•
The balls of the valve assemblies are blocked by
particles: clean or replace the valve assemblies.
First, check whether the presence of these particles
is normal and take corrective action if necessary.
•
The diaphragm is faulty (rupture): see Chapter IV -
1. And replace the diaphragm (see Part V).
The pump does not provide the required flow
rate
•
The pump capacity is incorrectly adjusted: adjust the
capacity to the desired value and lock the stroke
adjustment knob.
•
The 4-function valve continuously
releases pressure: the discharge piping is
partially or totally blocked.
•
The ball seats and/or the balls are dirty or worn:
clean or replace the ball seats and the balls or the
valve assemblies.
•
The tangential wheel is faulty. Replace the « wheel -
connecting rod » assembly [D] (see Part VI).
•
A bearing is faulty. Provide for the replacement of
either the « wheel - connecting rod » assembly [D],
the « male eccentric » assembly [12] or the whole
mechanical assembly [J] (see Part VI).
•
The leak-tightness of the suction circuit is
unsatisfactory: repair or replace the piping.
