Flowplant Century Pump Manual
FOREWORD
This manual is primarily concerned with the Harben Century Type Pump. In addition,
general safety and operating information for the equipment into which the pump is
installed is also included.
The conversion of pressurised water into a high velocity jet and its use as a cleaning
and cutting tool is now familiar to, and used by, many people in a wide range of
industries.
High pressure water can achieve remarkable results without the use of heat or
chemicals and cost savings over conventional maintenance methods can in many
cases show that a water jetting unit will pay for itself in hours rather than years.
Many companies have problems for which high pressure water offers a rapid
solution, yet hesitate to consider this method because of the generally accepted high
cost of such equipment. Backed by many years of design and manufacturing
experience, Harben pumps are setting new standards of performance and reliability.
The capital and operating costs are such that these offer and attractive return on
investment that really makes sense.
Flowplant Group Ltd have a policy of continual research and improvement and we
reserve the right to make such modifications and design changes as are considered
necessary in the light of experience, however, this copy of the manual will not be
amended.
No part of this manual may be reproduced or copied in any manner without written
permission from Flowplant Group Ltd.

HEALTH AND SAFETY AT WORK
There are two main categories of risk. These are:
a) Injury from impact of water

b) Injury from environment.
All persons involved in water jetting should be made aware of the risks.
INJURY FROM IMPACT OF WATER
In the event that a person is injured by the impact of a water jet, the injury caused
may appear insignificant and give little indication of the extent of the injury beneath
the skin and the damage to deeper tissues. Large quantities of water may have
punctured the skin, flesh and organs through a very small hole that may not even
bleed.
Immediate hospital attention is required and medical staff must be informed of the
cause of the injury. To ensure that this is not overlooked, all operators engaged on
jetting should carry an immediately accessible waterproof card which outlines the
possible nature of the injury and bears the following text which has been endorsed
by the Employment Medical Advisory Service (EMAS) of the Health and Safety
Executive:
THIS MAN HAS BEEN INVOLVED WITH HIGH PRESSURE WATER JETTING
AT PRESSURE UP TO 36750 LB/IN2 (250 MPA, 2500 BAR, 2548 KG/CM2)
WITH A JET VELOCITY OF 1536 MILES (2458 KM) PER HOUR.
Please take this into account when making your diagnosis. Unusual infections with
micro-aerophilic organisms occurring at lower temperatures have been reported.
These may have gram negative pathogens such as are found in sewage. Bacterial
swabs and blood cultures may therefore be helpful.
A letter containing this and other relevant information should be sent to the doctor of
each operator.
Where surgical examination is not immediately possible in remote situations, first aid
measures should be confined to dressing the wound and observing the patient
closely until a medical examination has been arranged.
3
If any person, object or article is accidentally struck by the jet, this fact must be
reported to the operator's representative.
INJURY FROM ENVIRONMENT
Work should only be carried out if it is safe to do so. A thorough examination of the
site should be carried out before work is started. Refer to the Warnings and
Cautions.
Special care should be taken where there is a danger of infection. There are many
situations where infection can take place. As a guide to avoiding infection, the
following points should be considered:
a) Full protective clothing must be worn.
b) Always clean scratches or cuts immediately. Disinfect and cover with a strip of
gauze and impermeable plaster. SEEK MEDICAL HELP.
c) Avoid rubbing eyes, nose or mouth with hands during working.
d) All contaminated clothing, vehicles and equipment should be thoroughly

cleaned.
e) Operators should wash thoroughly after work and before eating, drinking or
smoking.

SAFETY CODE OF PRACTICE
Full details of the Safety Code of Practice, when working with equipment containing
a Harben pump, are given in Section 3 of this manual. The basic rules of this code
are as follows:
1. ALWAYS WEAR THE CORRECT PROTECTIVE CLOTHING.
2. ALWAYS ENSURE ALL EQUIPMENT IS IN A FIRST CLASS CONDITION.
3. NEVER WORK FROM A LADDER.
4. NEVER USE THE GUN WITH THE TRIGGER LOCKED ON.
5. NEVER POINT THE GUN AT ANYONE, EVEN IF SWITCHED OFF.
Only a responsible person who has received instruction in the operation of high
pressure water jetting equipment should be allowed to operate the equipment.
5
POTENTIAL HAZARDS AND MISUSE OF HIGH PRESSURE EQUIPMENT
Failure to follow the instructions where

this icon is shown can result in serious
injury or even death
 Never use a jetter that isn’t regularly serviced according to the manufacturer’s
recommendations.
 When a jetter is used to clean drains & sewers that are contaminated with a
hazardous substance it is possible these may be entrained in the resulting
aerosol and inhaled by operators. Consider using respiratory protection.
 Do not spray flammable liquids – there is a risk of

explosion.
 Ensure the correct fuel is used on all occasions or there

is a risk of explosion.
 Never start the jetter when frozen. Operating a jetter whilst frozen could cause
high speed ice bullets to be ejected from the jetter hose on machine start up.
 Never start jetting a drain, sewer or pipe unless the jet nozzle is safely inside
the drain and pointing in the direction that you intend it to travel.
 When drain jetting a drain, sewer or pipe with an inside diameter that is not
small enough to prevent the hose from turning back on itself, a drain jet
extension (a piece of straight rigid tube equivalent to the pipe diameter)
should be fitted between the end of the hose and the nozzle.
 Always use a safety leader hose at the beginning of the main jetting hose to
alert operators when the jet nozzle is nearing the manhole entrance.
 Always consider the use of a tiger tail hose feed guide to protect the jetting
hose from abrasion and prevent premature failure.
 Be aware that high pressure hoses can generate static electricity which may
need to be controlled when working in hazardous areas.
 Never direct a high pressure water jet at electric power

lines or electrical equipment as serious injury or death
from electrocution could occur.
 When jetting drains or sewers if there is a danger to the general public from
hoses laying across public walkways they must be covered in such a way as
to protect against injury from hose failure and tripping hazards.
6
Failure to follow the instructions where this

icon is shown can result in serious injury
or even death
 Before starting work, check and ensure the drain jets have no blocked holes
or nozzles as this may cause the pumping system to over pressurise which
could result in burst disc failure or bursting the jetting hose.
 Never attempt to unblock a fully choked drain or pipe before considering the
consequence of releasing the blockage and having a plan to deal with it. E.g.
flooding, material ejection, drain nozzle ejection.
 Never attempt to clean drains or pipes in one pass because this could lead to
debris build up behind the jet nozzle causing a pressure build up in the
drainage system. Be aware that a pressure build up in the drain or pipe could
cause the jet nozzle to be ejected at speed back towards the operator.
 Never enter the manhole to either place the jet nozzle into or extract it from
the drain entrance unless the required confined space regulations have been
met.
 Never work in a manhole with a radio remote control transmitter that is not
classified for use in such areas.
 Never use the hydraulic hose reel facility as a winch to retract a jetting hose
that has become stuck in the drain or pipe. Damage to the hose could be
caused that will make subsequent hose failure more likely.
 Never allow jetting hoses to become kinked and always remove from service
any jetting hose with an outer cover that has worn through to the reinforcing
braid.
 Never use the high pressure jetting hose for any purpose other than sewer,
drain or pipe cleaning, e.g. winching vehicles or other plant.
 Never use jetting nozzles and/or accessories that have not been calibrated for
the jetting machine pump performance as this could cause rapid over
pressurisation catching operators unaware.
 Never attempt to clean a drain or pipe with a nozzle that has more forward
force than rear force. It could be ejected back toward the operator
causing injury.
 Never attempt to clean a drain or pipe with a chain flail type jet that has
unequal chain lengths as this could lead to severe vibration and high pressure
hose failure.
7

or even death
 When using a venturi jet pump to remove fluid from a flooded manhole never
place your fingers into the pump inlet as they could be trapped by the
vacuum and cause injury.
 When using a venturi jet pump to remove fluid from a flooded manhole always
secure the free end of the pump hose securely and ensure adequate drainage
is in place to deal with high volumes of pumped water.
 Never use a dry shut type foot control valve on a jetter that does not have a
pressure unloader valve as this could result in burst disc failure or bursting the
jetting hose.
 When using a dry shut type system be aware that high pressure can be
retained in the jetting hose even after the machine has been shut down.
Always discharge pressure in a safe manner after machine shut down.
 When working with a gun always consider using a safety shroud to provide
the operator with greater protection in the event of a hose burst.
 Never point the gun at anyone as injury from high pressure water will occur if
the jet stream comes into contact with body parts.
 Never work on a slippery surface because the reaction force of the jetting gun
could cause you to become unstable and lose your footing.
 Never work from a ladder as the reaction force of the jetting gun could cause
the ladder to fall backwards from the working area causing possible injury.
 Never work from scaffolding unless it is designed, erected and managed by

competent persons and it is adequately secured to prevent it being pushed
over by jetting gun reaction forces.
 When using the jetting gun to clean hard surfaces be aware that splash back
could contain hard debris travelling at speed.
 When using the jetting gun to clean contaminated surfaces be aware that
splash back could contain dangerous contaminants.
 Never use the jetting gun to clean a surface that could be damage or
penetrated by the water pressure unless that is the desired effect.
8

or even death
 Always ensure that an adequate area is cordoned off around the working
zone so that flying debris and contamination cannot injure passers-by.
 Be aware that the use of water jetting guns fitted with oscillating or rotating
heads tend to produce higher hand arm vibration levels than simple fixed
head jets.
 When using a jetting gun or nozzle to clean at floor level wear suitable
protective foot wear.
 Never use a high pressure jetting gun to clean down PPE

whilst you or others are still wearing it as serious injury and
death could result.
 Never use a high pressure jetting gun to wash or cool down

livestock as serious injury and death could result.
 Drainage systems may carry bacteria and micro-organisms which can cause
severe illness or death. Avoid exposing eyes, nose, mouth, ears, hands, cuts
or abrasions to waste water or faecal matter during drain cleaning operations.
After working around drainage systems help protect yourself by always
washing hands.
9
PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT (PPE)
All persons using high pressure water jetting equipment should use all necessary
PPE suitable for the task being carried out. This includes, but is not limited to:
 Ear protection
 Eye protection: a helmet with chin guard and visor is recommended
 Hand protection
 Waterproof clothing
 Safety boots with toe protection
Please note: A site specific Risk Assessment / Job Hazard Analysis must be
completed to analyse which PPE must be worn.

1.1 INTRODUCTION
The Harben Century Type high pressure pump (Fig 1.1) is a radial piston diaphragm pump
which can be used for a number of industrial applications, including the following:
(a) High pressure cutting of board, plastic and other materials

(b) Water hydraulic systems
(c) Abrasive blasting and de-scaling
(d) Drain/sewer cleaning
(e) Tube de-scaling
(f) Desalination by reverse osmosis
(g) Pumping demineralised water
(h) Floor and surface cleaning
(i) Underwater cleaning
(j) Surface preparation
In addition to its reliability and long service intervals, the advantages of using this type of
pump include:
(a) Variable pressure and flow options without piston change

(b) Pumps can run dry without damage as there are no piston seals
(c) Filtration up to 150 microns
(d) No modification is required to pump sea water
(e) Pump has multi-cylinders therefore no pulsation
The pump is designed to be directly-coupled and flange-mounted, and can be supplied in

either bare-shaft form, or skid mounted, trolley mounted, trailer mounted or truck mounted
configurations. In addition, the pump can be mounted on an underwater ROV. Diesel
drive, electrical drive and hydraulic drive options are available .

1.2 PUMP DESCRIPTION
1.2.1 Functional
The following description of the Harben Century Type Pump applies equally to the 4 and 8
cylinder variants. Performance details of each type of pump are given later in this section.
The Century pump works on the radial piston design principle which uses one-way valves
in conjunction with tubular diaphragms, fitted with an internal support or mandrel. The
pumped fluid, which passes through this diaphragm, is enclosed by a cylindrical pressure
chamber or barrel, in the ends of which are fitted inlet and delivery valves.
The pump crankcase, which contains the only mechanical moving parts, is filled with
mineral hydraulic oil. This oil provides for the lubrication of all moving parts within the
crankcase, and as a means of pressure to compress the diaphragm.
As the pump shaft rotates, the piston advances and its ports pass the end of the cylinder,
sealing the chamber. Further advance of the piston causes the trapped oil to compress
the diaphragm around the mandrel, expelling the water in the diaphragm through the
delivery valve and into the delivery manifold.
When the piston retreats, the diaphragm reverts to its tubular form and draws water
through the inlet valve. Any oil slippage past the piston during the delivery stroke is made
up through the piston ports as they open to the crankcase oil.
All mechanical parts, with the exception of the inlet and delivery valves, run in the oil-
flooded crankcase and are therefore unaffected by contamination by the pump fluid, or by
running dry.
1.2.2 Filtration
Standard filtration for the pump is normally 50 microns. This filter is usually fitted to the
inlet of the supply tank or reservoir. This arrangement ensures that if the filter is neglected
to the point of blockage, the tank will empty and the pump will run dry, thus enabling the
dry-running qualities of the pump to be used as a filter maintenance indicator. Inlet
conditions required are flooded suction; pressure feeding is not necessary.
1.2.3 Fluid Flow
Arrangements are made on the pump for the incoming fluid to cool the crankcase oil.
The use of standard diaphragm/barrel assemblies provides a choice of flows, depending
upon the number of barrels fitted to a crankcase. The cylindrical form of these barrels is
well suited to containing high pressures. Three piston diameters are available to suit a
range of pressure up to 700 bar (10 000 psi).

2.1 INTRODUCTION
It may be the case that the pump has not been purchased as part of a trailer or skid.
The information given in this section is intended to enable customers to install the
pump package in a frame of their design. It will enable engineers to carry out
preliminary design work before submitting the design for Flowplant Group approval.
Refer to Section 1 for technical data and a description of the pump. Section 1, Fig 1.1
should be referred to for further technical details and installation data.

2.2 PUMP MOUNTING
2.2.1 General Details

The Century Series pumps are designed for direct drive and flange mounting. The normal
operating speed is 1000 rpm, nominal. Maximum operating speed is 1200 rpm. The pump
must rotate anticlockwise, looking at the front of the pump ('arrow' cast into crankcase).
The maximum inlet water pressure for the pump is 0.5 bar (5.0 metre head), whilst the
maximum oil pressure for the pump is 4.0 metre head to centre line of pump.
The pump can be inclined between horizontal and 45 degrees (delivery end uppermost).
If further inclination is required, between 45 degrees and vertical, Flowplant Group Ltd
should be contacted at the address given in Section 1.
The weight of a pump with oil in the crankcase, drive coupling fitted and bell housing,
depends on the number of cylinders fitted, as follows:
4 cyl - 160 kg
8 cyl - 205 kg
The engineer should ensure that all couplings are fitted with a 3 mm clearance. Where a
bell housing (pump mounting and coupling shaft and cover) cannot be fitted due to a
difference in spigot or bolt locations, an adaptor ring may be fitted. Refer to Para 9 for
further details of coupling arrangements.
It is recommended that a detailed layout be drawn and the following points considered:
(a) Selection of bell housing most suitable for adaptor ring. Additional machining to
the bell housing may be required.
(b) Sufficient coupling engagement on the shaft whilst maintaining the recommended
clearance.
(c) Clearance between shafts; careful design can eliminate the shortening of
motor/engine shaft.
2.2.2 Pump Fitting
When the pump is to be fitted in position, the following points should be noted:
(a) When the pump is first married up to the prime mover, access is required to check
coupling clearance. When Flender B200 couplings are used, sight/gauge holes
are drilled in the bell housing for this purpose.
(b) It depends on the particular installation whether the pump head is removed to a
workshop for maintenance, e.g. diaphragm or valve replacement or whether work is
carried out in-situ.
(c) Where a pump 'strip-down' is required, the pump should be removed to the
workshop. The use of an assembly stand (part no 100-279) is recommended.
25
2.2.3 Coupling Arrangements
Arrangements are made on the pump for the incoming fluid to cool the crankcase oil.
The use of standard diaphragm/barrel assemblies provides a choice of flows, depending
upon the number of barrels fitted to a crankcase. The cylindrical form of these barrels is
well suited to containing high pressures. Three piston diameters are available to suit a
range of pressure up to 700 bar (10 000 psi).
For details of the prime mover/gearbox/pump coupling arrangements for diesel-driven and
electrically-driven pumps, refer to Fig 2.2 and Tables 2.1 to 2.5.

2.3 INLET WATER
2.3.1 General
It is recommended that inlet water is filtered to 50 microns. Filtration to 150 microns is
also possible. Refer to Flowplant Group for advice. Flowplant offer types of filter suitable
for most applications.
Turbulent water will cause the pump to run unevenly and cause excessive wear due to
cavitation. For this reason, water must first pass through a break water or header tank
controlled by a ball valve or float device. Water leaving the tank should have lamina flow
characteristics and be air free.
Notes:
1) If water is filtered before the tank, then the tank must be sealed and vented to avoid
contamination.
2) A pressure/flow check at the inlet to the pump is recommended. The maximum
inlet water pressure for the pump is 0.5 bar (5.0 metre head) and the minimum
recommended 0.05 bar (0.5 metre head).
3) Maximum recommended inlet water velocity 0.5 metres / second.
4) Recommended vortex stopper in tank outlet / pump inlet.
5) Flowplant recommend return line to be on opposite side of tank to tank outlet /
pump inlet.
6) Flowplant recommend that tank should be of sufficient size so that at full flow,
cannot be drained in under 4 minutes.
A pH value of 5 to 9 is recommended. Although liquids outside this range may

occasionally be pumped, it is advisable to contact Flowplant Group, at the address given
in Section 1, for their advice.
Hose and pipe bores between the break water tank and pump should be a minimum of 50
mm (2 in) and up to a length of 1 metre. If a longer length of hose/pipe is required, refer to
Flowplant.
Other points to be considered concerning inlet water are:
(a) Avoid long hose or pipe runs.
(b) Avoid hose or pipe runs that cause air pockets.
(c) Refer to circuit layout for mounting angle of pump.
(d) If water inlet temperature is over 30°C, consult Flowplant.

3.1 INTRODUCTION
This section gives general information on safety, protective clothing to be used by operators,
and general starting and stopping procedures when the pump is incorporated in a machine. It
should be remembered that the operating procedures given are to be used as a guide only,
and the equipment handbook operating procedures should be used where applicable.
3.2 SAFETY CODE OF PRACTICE
BASIC RULES
1. ALWAYS WEAR THE CORRECT PROTECTIVE CLOTHING.

2. ALWAYS ENSURE ALL EQUIPMENT IS IN A FIRST CLASS CONDITION.
3. NEVER WORK FROM A LADDER.
4. NEVER USE THE GUN WITH THE TRIGGER LOCKED ON.
NEVER POINT THE GUN AT ANYONE, EVEN IF SWITCHED OFF.
This Code of Practice is intended to provide guidance on the safe operation of high pressure
water jetting equipment.
The term 'high pressure water jetting' covers all water jetting, including the use of additives
and abrasives, where there is an energy input to increase the pressure of water.
This code applies to high pressure water jetting as defined above where there is a
foreseeable risk of injury.
31
3.2.1 General
Only a responsible person who has received instruction in the operation of high pressure
water jetting equipment should be allowed to operate the equipment.
Barriers should be erected around the cleaning bay or where the work is being done 'in-
situ', round the section of plant concerned. Access within 10 metres by persons other
than the jetting team, is strictly prohibited.
A warning notice 'NO UNAUTHORISED ENTRY High Pressure Water Jetting in Progress'
should be displayed on each side of the bay, or on the plant, where the work is to be
done.
Each member of the team should be provided with suitable waterproof clothing,
wellington boots with internal steel toe caps, safety helmet with visor and ear defenders,
and gloves. Refer to Para 14 for details of protective clothing available.
Never attempt to change jets or accessories whilst the pump is operating, even if the flow
control selector valve is in the recycle (dump) position.
3.2.2 Safety Gun
Never point the safety gun at anyone, even if it is switched off.
When using the 'dead-mans handle' safety gun, the required jet should befitted to the
high pressure barrel (low pressure barrel is fitted with a diffuser) and tightened
correctly before starting the unit. All other hose connections, etc must be checked
before attempting to start the unit.
Water jetting guns should be properly maintained and care should be taken not to
damage the delicate components of the trigger mechanism.
32
3.2.3 Drain/Sewer
In addition to the protective clothing listed in Para 5(4), the other equipment should be used
when entering confined spaces, such as safety harness and rescue line, atmospheric
testing equipment, escape breathing apparatus and hand lamps (intrinsically safe
where appropriate).
To prevent snaking or reverse travel of a flexible hose inside the tube being cleaned, a
section of steel pipe, slightly longer than the diameter of the tube to be cleaned, should be
connected between the flexible hose and the nozzle (drain jet extension).
During drain cleaning operations it is advisable to use a coloured leader hose to act as a
warning to the operator that the hose recovery is almost complete.
In addition to Where drain or pipe jetting operations are to be carried out remote from the
high pressure pump unit, i.e. where communication between the person controlling the pump
and the equipment operator is not possible, it is essential that a remote control kit or foot
control valve is used at the work point.
3.2.4 Hoses
Care should be taken to ensure that all hoses are maintained in good condition and are of
the correct specification for the pressure being used.
Never loop the hose into an excessively tight radius, particularly adjacent to couplings.
When fitting re-usable couplings, always ensure that the current type of couplings are being
used in relation to the hose specification.
3.2.5 Underwater Recoil-less Safety Gun
The Harben Underwater Recoil-less Safety Gun is designed for use under-water only.
Extreme care should be taken to avoid rear-facing balance jets when testing the equipment
above water.
If working in shallow water, where there is a possibility of the diver surfacing inadvertently
during water blasting, care should be taken to ensure that the recoil balance jet protection
tube is sufficiently long to prevent the diver directing it at himself.
33
3.2.6 Tube Cleaning
Where tube cleaning is to be done by means of a lance, the charge hand who operates the
remote control valve should first insert the lance into the tube, leaving the other end of the
lance supported by one man. Once the tube has been inserted, the other men required to
support the control lance should take up their places, and only then should the charge hand
operate the valve.
Note: When the person operating the remote control valve is unable to speak directly to the
man, or men, controlling the lance, a clearly understood system of signals and instructions
must be agreed upon.
A barrier should be placed at the far end of the tube being cleaned for protection against
flying debris.
A shield fitted to the lance to protect the operator from debris ejected by backward pointing
jets should be used for certain operations.
3.2.7 Hoverclean
The angle of the jet holders determine the rotational speed of the spray bar; this is set and
locked in position at the works, and on no account must this angle be altered.
3.2.8 Abrasive Injection Equipment
Because water/abrasive jetting can give rise to dangerous splash back, ensure all protective
clothing, detailed in 3.2.1, is used. Some abrasives are known to produce residues which
may be serious to health and should not be used for blasting, such as sand containing free
silica.
3.2.9 Accidents
In the event of a person being injured by the impact of a water jet, the injury
caused may appear insignificant and give little indication of the extent of the injury beneath
the skin and the damage to deeper tissues. Large quantities of water may have punctured
the skin, flesh and organs through a very small hole that may not even bleed/
Operators should carry a card which explains to medical staff the possible nature of the
injury, both relating to the high pressure water and any unusual infections that may be found
in sewage, such as leptospirosis, better known as Weil's Disease.

(anti-freeze procedures, (3.3.6, 3.3.8).
v. If the unit is to be stored for more than 7 days without running, an inhibitor should be
run through the system. Do not drain prior to storage; always leave full of fresh water
or inhibitor.
36
vi. Refer to the manufacturer's handbook for information concerning engine/ electric
motor protection/storage.
3.3.4 To Oil Bleed the Pump
As delivered from the factory, the pump would have already been oil bled (except pump
heads supplied separately). If necessary, oil bleed the pump as follows:
Note: Refer to the lubrication chart given in Section 4, Table 4.2 for details of pump oil types
and capacities.
i. Fill the pump to the top of the crankcase with the correct oil (or ensure oil is in the
expansion bottle, if fitted).
ii. Set the selector valve to the recycle (dump) position and start the engine/motor. Run
at 750 rpm tick-over to prime, or inch electric motor (on/off).
Note: If the unit is fitted with a shut-down protection device, hold in the override button
for 10 seconds (this allows the engine oil pressure to build up).
iii. With reference to Fig 3.1, put a finger on top of an oil bleed screw on a lower barrel
and open the screw slowly using a suitable spanner. When air-free oil flows, tighten
the bleed screw firmly.
Note: Top up oil in the pump crankcase after each barrel has been bled.

at 750 rpm tick-over to prime, or inch electric motor (on/off).
Note: If the unit is fitted with a shut-down protection device, hold in the override button
for 10 seconds (allows engine oil pressure to build up).
ii. The pump is self-priming. If, however, any difficulty is experienced, stop engine,
loosen the upper bleed nipples and allow water to flow from each nipple (ensure that
the header tank remains full). Tighten nipples and repeat the procedure detailed in i.
To identify the bleed nipples, refer to Fig 3.1.
iii. When the operator has taken up a working position, move the selector lever to the
High Pressure position and increase engine speed to reach working pressure.
Note: If the delivery line vibrates this indicates that air is still in the system. Stop the
unit and repeat the procedure detailed in i .

4.3.10 Pump Running In
Prior to running in the pump after overhaul or major component replacement, the pump
should be filled with oil to the correct level. Refer to Lubrication Chart (Table 4.2) for details
of recommended oil types and pump oil capacities.
The pump should also be bled of air in accordance with the procedures given in Sections
3.3.4, 3.3.5.
Note: Check the direction of pump rotation when first switched on.
Run the pump at maximum pressure for the following periods, whilst checking for leaks,
monitoring the flow and checking the results against pump performance data:
a. Off load - 30 minutes
b. 1 /2 max. pressure - 60 minutes
c. Max. pressure - 60 minutes.
The following points should be taken into account when determining maximum pressure to
be used when running in the pump:
Piston Size Maximum Pressure

22.5 mm 700 bar (10000 psi)
25.0 mm 550 bar (8000 psi)
27.5 mm 420 bar (6000 psi)
a. If the pump is being used on a system that has a lower working pressure than
the maximum for the pump, then running in of the pump should be at the lower
pressure.
b. Check the pump Identification Plate for the maximum working pressure of the
pump before commencing the running in test. Some models of pumps have
working pressures lower than stated, in which case running in should be carried
out at the lower pressure.
