Proportioning Pumps  

 

When the proportioning pumps are functioning properly, it is not unusual for a trace 
amount of resin or isocyanate chemical to seep past the pump packing onto the pump 
shaft.  Maintain proper packing adjustment to minimize seepage.  Routinely inspect the 
shaft and wipe away any residue when the proportioner is turned off.  Disassemble and 
clean both proportioning pumps annually.  Inspect the pistons and cylinders for mars or 
scratches, which may cause leakage or damage to packings.  As a preventive 
maintenance precaution, Gusmer recommends replacement of the piston and cylinder 
packings during the annual cleaning.  

(Refer to the Proportioning Pump Assembly section 

of the Parts I.D. for reference.)

Pump Bases 

 

Disassemble and clean both pump bases annually as follows: 

(Refer to the Pump Base Assembly section of the Parts I.D. for reference.) 

 

1.  Perform the Daily Shut-down procedure and bleed all chemical pressures to zero. 

 

2.  Remove the valve cover using an adjustable wrench. 

 

Inspect the valve cover o-ring and replace as required.  Liberally coat the o-ring with 
Lubriplate grease before installing the valve cover back into the pump base.  Also, 
check the chamfer around the cavity to ensure that there are no sharp edges, which 
could damage the o-ring and prevent proper seal. 

 

3.  Remove the valve ball and inspect it for nicks and scratches.  Replace as required.
