Failure phenomenon |
Cause of issue |
Method of exclusion |
Mud pump does not deliver water |
1. Air enters the mud pump |
Exhaust treatment |
2. No water source enters the mud pump |
The water tank is filled with water, the water valve is opened, and the water inlet is unblocked; |
3. The mud pump does not rotate |
Check whether the mud pump drive motor is working normally, whether the hydraulic pipeline is under pressure, and whether the solenoid valve is working; |
4. The mud pump pressure is too low (water pressure) |
The mud pump cylinder sleeve wears out and needs to be replaced; the water source has many impurities, and the inlet and outlet valve seats of the pump head should be disassembled and cleaned; |
5. The mud pump check valve seat is worn or the steel ball is out of round |
Replace related accessories |
The mud pump can’t reach the displacement or can’t discharge the medium at all |
1. The filter comes out of the water |
Make the filter immerse into the liquid surface, the depth is not less than 0.3~0.5m |
2. The filter is blocked |
Take out the filter for cleaning |
3. The suction pipe is blocked |
Disassemble and clean the suction pipe |
4. The suction pipe is not tightly sealed to inhale air |
Check the connections and hoses and try to eliminate them |
5. The inlet and outlet valves are stuck and do not work |
Replace the parts due to the valve or valve seat being worn and stuck; due to the clogging of sediment, the bottom of the pump head and the cylinder liner can be opened for cleaning; |
6. Piston or cylinder liner wear |
Open the cylinder head, tighten the copper screw sleeve pressing the piston or replace the piston or cylinder liner; |
7. The suction channel is not filled with water or air pockets are formed |
Fill with water and exhaust air (a water filling funnel can be installed for filling and exhausting) |
8. The water absorption height exceeds the allowable height |
Adjust the water absorption height to within 2.5m (for thick mud, drop to within 1m) |
9. The suction pipe is too long or the diameter is too small |
Reduce the length to less than 5m; increase the pipe diameter to the specified size |
10. Insufficient oil supply or insufficient pressure of the oil pump, reducing the speed and torque of the motor; |
Check and exclude |
Difficulty in operation of mud pump |
1. The filter comes out of the water |
Loosen the adjusting screw sleeve to reduce the interference of the sealing ring |
2. The filter is blocked |
Check the gap and adjust |
3. The suction pipe is blocked |
Check and eliminate |
4. The suction pipe is not tightly sealed to inhale air |
Check and tighten |
There is a strange sound during operation |
5. The inlet and outlet valves are stuck and do not work |
Adjust the bearing gap or replace with a new bearing |
6. Piston or cylinder liner wear |
Check and tighten |
7. The suction channel is not filled with water or air pockets are formed |
Check and replace damaged parts |
8. The water absorption height exceeds the allowable height |
Check and adjust the adjustment bolts on the shaft end cover |
Excessive pressure pulsation |
1. The through hole on the head of the pressure gauge is blocked |
Cleaning the through hole on the head of the pressure gauge |
2. The piston of a cylinder is severely worn |
Check and replace new parts |
3. The valve seat or valve seat hole of a cylinder is severely worn |
Check and replace new parts or repair valve seat holes |
4. The valve seat of a certain cylinder is stuck by impurities and cannot work |
Check and clear |
5. The clearance between the valve seat and the valve seat hole is too large |
Eliminate the gap |
6. The discharge medium contains a lot of gas |
Check the cause and eliminate |
7. The pressure gauge is damaged |
Replace the new pressure gauge |
Local fever or excessive temperature rise |
1. There is too much lubricating oil in the crankcase, which greatly exceeds the specified liquid level |
Check and drain the oil to the specified height |
2. The connecting rod bearing bush is assembled too tightly, and the clearance of the three tapered bearings is too small |
Check and adjust to a reasonable gap |
3. The piston seal assembly is too tight |
Adjust the tightness of the seal |
Shift gears out of gear |
1. After the gear is engaged, the top adjusting bolt is not tight, and the positioning steel ball on the shift lever is pressed |
Check and tighten the top adjustment bolt until it stops |
2. The set screws on the shift fork and the shift guide rod are not tightly pressed |
Check and tighten the set screws, add iron wire to prevent loosening |
The safety valve and the unloading valve are leaking, and the safety valve is malfunctioning |
1. The pre-pressure of the compression spring in the safety valve is insufficient |
Adjust the spring pressure; |
2. The end surface of the valve seat is not flat and the inner hole is not round |
Inspect and repair; |
3. There is debris in the contact between the valve and the valve seat |
Check and clean; |
4. Compression spring is crushed |
Re-adjust the looseness to ensure the spring margin |
