              Problem 

              Cause 

                      Solution

 Pressure Drops, water leaks 

V-sleeves leak 

Replace V-sleeves, check surface of  

   plunger

 Pressure drops, pump gets loud 

Discharge or suction valve leaks 

Replace valve(s)

 

Steam formation (Cavitation) 

Reduce suction height, reduce flow 

 

 

resistance in inlet line, clean inlet  

 

 

filter, lower water temperature.

 Irregular pressure 

Worn Valves 

Examine valves

 

O-ring on valves or inlet valve 

 

adapter leaks 

Examine O-rings, check valve  

 

 

casing for unevenness on the  

 

 

sealing surfaces

 Oil leaks at visible part of plunger 

Gear sealing is leaking 

Examine seals and running surface  

 

 

of plunger

 Dirty, milk-colored or frothy oil 

Water has mixed with oil 

Replace oil immediately, find & fix  

 

 

the cause

 Oil leakage on the crankshaft 

Shaft seal ring leaks 

Check seal and shaft

 Noise increases without the loss 

Worn bearing 

Dismantle gear, examine all parts,  

 

 

replace worn parts, check oil level. If  

 

 

service life was too short, check for  

 

 

excess strain or whether lubrication  

 

 

intervals were too long. Only  

 

 

specified lubricants are to be used.
