General Information
The durability of the components of the compression head depends on the following factors:
- surface condition of the pumping pistons;
- process temperature;
- type of product;
- under-feeding the machine (low feed pressure), (see the relevant
technical sheet
enclosed with
chapter 11 of this manual);
Some of these factors, such as the wear of the piston coating and the machine underfeeding cause
early deterioration of the gaskets.
Replacement must be made when you notice product leaking into the sump; production can in any
case be concluded with no danger of pollution if the machine is fed correctly.
CAUTION:
To avoid situations where production has to be stopped due to missing plunger gaskets, we
suggest you schedule preventive replacement on the basis of their expected mean life.
CAUTION:
Before you begin with maintenance and gasket replacement make sure all the necessary
spare parts and tools are available.
