FLUID END (FIGURE 2-3)
This fluid end incorporates the traditional
flange-mounted fluid end design, which
simplifies installation and removal by simply
removing the stay-rod nuts. These stay-rod
nuts must be made-up tight and remain tight
during
operation.
(See
Torque
Requirements on page 34). Plungers are
installed and removed through the front
suction covers. Plunger packing is
accessible by removal of the packing nut or
gland. Plunger packing lube holes are
provided in the fluid cylinder.
The EWS Fluid End is a forged alloy steel
block is designed for severe applications.
The EWS utilizes heat-treated “Ultima 1”
Stem Guided Valves to provide increased
valve life and improved fluid pass through
to reduce cavitation. The cross bore
intersections are hand blended and hand
polished bore to reduce surface fatigue
stresses. The Close Flow – Drop Hinge
suction manifold works directly with the
Ultima 1 valves and fluid end design to
enhance fluid cylinder loading for smother
operations.
