DPLLD Transducer Installation
This section discusses DPLLD transducer installation for the following DPLLD approved pumps:
• Red Jacket Standard pumps - DPLLD transducer/SwiftCheck valve (page 8)
• Red Jacket Standard pumps - DPLLD transducer (page 14)
• The Red Jacket (page 15)
• Red Jacket Maxxum Big-Flo (page 16)
• FE-Petro (page 17)
Red Jacket Standard Pumps (DPLLD w/SwiftCheck)
Use this installation procedure to install a DPLLD transducer with a SwiftCheck valve in a Red Jacket Standard
pump.
Disconnect, lock out, and tag all AC power to the TLS console, dispens
-
ers and submersible pumps.
When servicing equipment, use non-sparking tools and use caution when removing or in
-
stalling equipment to avoid generating a spark.
1. If a ball valve is installed down line from the pump, close it.
2. Back out the electrical connector disconnect bolt.
3. Swing electrical connector aside.
4. To relieve pressure, back out the Functional Element screw or remove the 2 – ½-13 Hex Screws on the
Packer-To-Manifold flange interface and rock the Packer/Extractable section of the pump to allow excess
pressure to flow into the tank.
5. Do
one
of the following:
a. If the submersible turbine pump is equipped with a mechanical LLD, remove the mechanical unit and any
related tubing and fittings, and install ¼” NPT pipe plugs into the respective “Line Test” and Tank Test”
ports on the packer. Be certain to apply an adequate amount of fresh, UL “Classified for Petroleum”, non-
setting thread sealant on the ¼” NPT pipe plugs and then torque each plug at 14-24 ft-lbs (19.4-29 Nm).
b. If the submersible turbine pump is
not
equipped with a mechanical LLD, remove the 2-inch mechanical
LLD port plug.
6. Ensure that the sealing surface for the SwiftCheck valve’s external o-ring is smooth and free from corrosion,
pitting, and any material build-up [Figure
3].
