19. Experts in Chem-Feed and Water Treatment Replenishment Check Prevents hydraulic oil from returning back to the drive case

20. Experts in Chem-Feed and Water Treatment Replenishment Valve Small amounts of hydraulic oil that is lost due to normal air bleed needs to be replenished. The valve is depressed by the diaphragm and admits hydraulic oil on the suction stroke.

21. Experts in Chem-Feed and Water Treatment Air Bleed Poppet/Relief Valve Allows air to be purged from the hydraulic oil. It checks in both suction and discharge stroke.

27. Experts in Chem-Feed and Water Treatment What Can Go Wrong ??

28. Experts in Chem-Feed and Water Treatment This is usually caused when manually over priming the hydraulics after a diaphragm replacement. All of the air is displaced with hydraulic fluid “ballooning” the diaphragm towards the liquid end and you re-insert the internal relief poppet without loosening the internal relief adjusting screw. Diaphragm Rupture Manually over priming the hydraulics

29. Experts in Chem-Feed and Water Treatment If diaphragms keep rupturing towards the liquid end after continuous normal running. Check the replenishment valve for sticking open. Problem Area

30. Experts in Chem-Feed and Water Treatment Hydraulic Shock When there is a pulsation dampener at the discharge and the pressure is increased above the operating pressure causing the internal relief to lift, All of the hydraulic fluid behind the diaphragm is safely dumped back to the drive case. The stored energy from the pulse dampener causes a hydraulic shock until the valve balls seat firmly. This causes the diaphragm to collapse against the contour plate until the pump is out of relief. With the pump running in relief can cause the diaphragm to dimple and or rupture depending on the amount of time and pressure. it’s recommended to replace the diaphragm if running in relief for 24 Hrs.

31. Experts in Chem-Feed and Water Treatment Over heating or lack of lubrication This can be caused from A. diaphragm rupture and product leaking into the drive case displacing the oil. B. Improper maintenance and oil level to low C. Chemical attack
