Conditions
Above 0 0# 107 L/hr

Below 0 -10# 107 L/hr


Fuel
1. Select fuel according to the weather temperature.
2. Fuel supply temperature should not over 37.
3. Recommend to use a fuel heater in cold weather.
Extended Life Coolant (ELC)
Coolant -9.5-50 1:1 mixing of water and glycol is 70 L
recommended.
1. Total capacity of the cooling system includes: Engine cylinder body, radiator,
coolant hose and piping.
2. For replacement of coolant: refer to the above.
3. Refill steps of coolant: To initially fill until the engine runs at high idle speed for
1 minute to expel air from the cavity of the cylinder. Stop the engine. Then refill
to the level indication.
4. After refill, check the level indicator.
5. Before adding water, allow the engine to cool down completely to avoid damage
to the engine parts.
6. If the engine is stored below 0, the engine cooling system should be treated
with antifreeze or, the cooling water in the cooling system should be drained
completely.
7. For operation in a cold area, check the specific gravity of the cooling water
frequently to ensure the antifreeze content can meet the operating
requirements.
8. If water adding speed is over 20L/min, air plugging will be easily occurred.
9. Do not start the engine without installation of a thermostat. The thermostat is
mainly used to maintain normal temperature of the cooling water.
10. For the Air-to-Air intercooling CAT engines, the glycol content in the cooling
water should not be less than 30% so as to avoid cavitation of the water pump.
11. Pure water is not allowed to use in the cooling system (not containing coolant
aiding agent or antirust agent). At normal operating temperature, pure water
has corrosivity. Besides, the boiling point and solidifying point of pure water
cannot meet the operating requirements.
12. Usually the cooling water consists of 3 parts: water, additive and glycol.
13. Distilled water or deionized water is preferred.
14. Do not use hard water, salt water and sea water in the cooling system.
Oil -40-40 SAE 0W-40 40L (approximate)
1. Total capacity of the lube oil is approximately close to the capacity of the
standard sump.
2. Oil should be changed every 250 hours. The oil filter should be also changed at
the same time.
3. Refill steps of oil: To initially fill until the engine runs at high idle speed for 1
minute to expel air from the cavity of the cylinder. Stop the engine. Then refill to
the level indication.

1-4 http://www.sjs.ServaCorp.com
PCS-521B Twin Engine and Twin Pump Cementing Skid
Operation and Maintenance Manual
B01-00-217_A

The engine mainly consists of fuel system, lubrication system, air inlet system, cooling system,
electronic system and exhaust system.

1.2.1 FUEL SYSTEM

The fuel system includes the DDEC, the fuel injector, the fuel inlet line (combined with cylinder
head), the fuel pump, the cooling plate for non-automatic engine ECU, the fuel filter and
necessary fuel connecting lines.

1.2.2 LUBRICATION SYSTEM

The lubrication system includes the lube oil pump, the lube oil cooler, two full-flow lube oil filters,
the bypass valve of the connector of lube oil pump to lube oil filter, and the lube oil pressure
regulator for the vertical oil passage of the cylinder body.

1.2.3 AIR INLET SYSTEM

External air is suctioned into the engine thru the air cleaner to the turbine supercharger for
pressurization and then to the Air-to-Air cooler (heat exchanger) for cooling down and then to the
air inlet line and the cylinder for mixing with the fuel atomized by the fuel injector.
To better protect the engine from the damage by dust and pollution generated from other air, the
dry type air cleaner should be repaired when the max. allowed air flow restriction or repair year
limit is reached, whichever happened first.
Sufficient high quality air should be timely supplied to the burning chamber.

1.2.4 COOLING SYSTEM

The cooling system of the C13 engine adopts a radiating fin type fan for cooling. This system uses
the centrifugal water pump to circulate the cooling fluid inside the engine. Two full-plunger type
thermostats control the flowing direction of the cooling fluid. They are located inside the housing
connected the RH side of the cylinder.

1.2.5 ELECTRONIC SYSTEM

The system includes the starting motor, starting switch, the battery-powered DC generator,
battery and necessary wires.

1.2.6 AIR EXHAUST SYSTEM

The hot waste air from the air exhaust manifold to the outlet is used to drive the turbine
supercharger. The burnt waste air is exhausted from the engine freely.

1.4 ENGINE OPERATING PROCEDURE

1.4.1 INSPECTION BEFORE STARTING ENGINE

Inspect the engine for no oil, water leaks, coolant leaks, loose bots and trash buildup.

Check the engine crankcase oil level. See Fig.1.1. When the engine is stopped, use the oil
scale ENGINE STOPPED on the oil level gauge to check; when the engine runs at low idle
speed, use the LOW IDLE on the oil level gauge to check. The engine oil level should be kept
between the ADD mark and the FULL mark on the oil level gauge.

2 3 4

Fig. 1.1 Oil level gauge: ENGIN STOPPED check level (1), LOW
IDLE check level (2), ADD mark (3), FULL mark (4).

Notice: The engine oil level check can be done only when the engine is stopped.

Attention: If the engine oil level is found higher than the FULL mark on the oil level gauge, the
crankshaft has been immerged below the oil level. This will cause the engine power derate and air
mixing in the oil, i.e. oil bubbles which affecting the oil lubricating capability and cooling capability
to the piston. In addition, oil injection from the breather on the crankcase and large consumption
of engine oil will be caused.

Check the coolant level of the engine.

After the engine is stopped and cooled down, check the coolant level.

1-8 http://www.sjs.ServaCorp.com
PCS-521B Twin Engine and Twin Pump Cementing Skid
Operation and Maintenance Manual
B01-00-217_A

Slowly remove the coolant filler cover to release pressure. (Note: Hot coolant can cause
serious scald. Wait until the engine is cooled down and then open the filler cover.)
Maintain the coolant level in the sight glass.

Adjustment of the engine belt.


Check the engine drive belt every 3 months. If it is found worn or damaged, replace the belt.
To check the tension of the belt, you can apply an 110N acting force to the belt in the center
position between two pulleys. Normally the belt will have an offset of 5~15mm.

Fill lube oil to the drive bearing of the fan.

Check the fuel supply. Drain out the remaining water in the oil/water separator. Open the fuel
supply valve of the fuel tank. The fuel tank should maintained full with diesel oil to avoid
condensation of moisture.
Before starting engine, ensure that no man is standing in the hazardous zone of the engine.

1.4.2 STARTING THE ENGINE BY AIR STARTING (NEGLECT THE STEP 1 AND 2 IF
ELECTRICAL STARTING.)

CHECK THE AIR SOURCE PRESSURE. FOR NORMAL


RUNNING, THE AIR MOTOR REQUIRES MIN. AIR
PRESSURE OF 690KPA (100PSI) AND MAX. AIR
PRESSURE OF 1550KPA (225PSI). USUALLY THE
AIR PRESSURE SHOULD BE MAINTAINED AT
758~965KPA (110~140PSI). THE AIR FLOW
RATE IS 114L/MIN.

1: Starter button
2: Oil pot
3: Time-delay valve
Fig.1.2 control air valve 1 and
The engine startup at no load requires the air oil/water seperator2

pressure of 100PSI and startup under load requires a higher air pressure.
Press the starter button 1. the compressed air enters the green pilot line from the inlet port
to push out the the pinion of the motor to mess the flywheel gear ring.
After pushing out the pinion, the compressed air open the passage to enter the blue air line
and then enter the time-delay valve to push down the valve core. The compressed air at the
inlet port enter the motor thru the time-delay valve to drive and turn the vanes and the
pinion to start the engine.
The electrical starting system is designed to use small current to control big current. After the
pinion is pushed out, the motor begins to turn. This is the same principle in the air starting
system.
After releasing the starter button, the pilot air pressure is zero and the pinion retracts back
by spring and the motor stops running.

See Fig. 1.3.Check the oil/water separator level. The oil level should be maintained at half
position. The remaining water should be drained out. If the fuel system is found with the
condensed water, the fuel primary filter element should be immediately replaced to avoid
rough performance of the engine and damage to the electronic injection system.

Check the emergency shutdown device is positioned at the opening position or not.

Check the fuel inlet and return valves are opened or not. If the engine is stopped for long time,
the fuel system should have air exhausted, i.e. manual pumping oil.

1-10 http://www.sjs.ServaCorp.com
PCS-521B Twin Engine and Twin Pump Cementing Skid
Operation and Maintenance Manual
B01-00-217_A

Check the fan belt is normal or not. a) Check the engine drive belt every 3 months. If it is
found worn or damaged, replace the belt. b) To check the tension of the belt, you can apply
an 110N acting force to the belt in the center position between two pulleys. Normally the belt
will have an offset of 5~15mm.

If the engine is placed in a closed compartment, the air blower or windows should be opened.

Next, press the starter button to start the engine. While the engine is started, release the starting
button. The starting motor should not run continuously for over 15 seconds. Each starting time
interval should be less than 10 seconds. Do not engage the starting motor when the engine
flywheel is turning. If the engine fails to start within 30 seconds, release the starter button and
wait for two minutes to allow the starting motor to cool before attempting to start the engine
again.

1.4.3 ENGINE WARM-UP

15 seconds after starting the engine, the lube oil pressure begins to show indication. Do not
increase the engine speed and increase the engine load before the oil pressure is normal. If
within 15 seconds, the lube oil pressure has no indication, stop the engine to check for
reasons.

Usually from 0 to 60C, the warm-up time is about 3 minutes. More time may be necessary
when the temperature is below 0C.

To warm-up the engine, move the throttle and shifter lever individually to run the engine at
low idle for three to five minutes until the jacket water temperature starts to rise.

Check all of the gauges during the warm-up period. The required time for engine prewarming
is as follows:
a. When the atmospheric temperature is above 0, 5 minutes is required.
b. When the atmospheric temperature is below 0, 15 minutes is required.
c. When the atmospheric temperature is below -18, more time is required.

Perform another walk-around inspection. Check the engine for fluid leaks and air leaks. Check
the engine crankcase oil level. (Refer to check before starting the engine item2 for detailed
information.

Increase the rpm to the half rated rpm. Check for fluid leaks and air leaks.

1.4.4 ENGINE UNDER LOAD

All of the gauges should be ensured normal when the engine rpm is at the half rated. If the
driven equipment is driven but no load applied, gauge reading for any device should be
ensured normal.

Increase the rpm to the rated rpm. Check the engine for fluid leaks and air leaks. The engine

1-11 http://www.sjs.ServaCorp.com

Operation and Maintenance Manual
B01-00-217_A

may be operated at full rated rpm and at full load when the engine oil temperature reaches
60.

Loading. Run the engine at low gear firstly. Check the gauges and the equipment for proper
operation. When the oil pressure reaches the normal pressure and the temperature begins to
move, the engine can be then run at full load.

1.4.5 ENGINE STOPPING

For normal engine stopping, remove the load firstly, i.e. the clutch is engaged at NEUTRAL.
Reduce the engine speed (rpm) to low idle.

Increase the engine speed (rpm) to no more than one-half of the rated rpm. Perform this
procedure for three to five minutes in order to cool the engine. Reduce the engine speed (rpm)
to low idle.

Press the shutdown button to stop the engine.

Note:
Please immediately stop the engine when the working load is found to cause
heat to the engine and acceleration of wear to the engine parts. Prohibition of
warm shutdown can prolong the service life of the cylinder sleeve.
The emergency shutdown control is only used for emergent situation. It is
prohibited to the emergency shutdown for common parking control.

Note:
According to the requirements in the engine operation manual, the
coolant is anticorrosive. Otherwisely the engine cooling system and
related parts will be seriously damaged.
Overtime use of the starting motor and fuel system precharging
pump will cause damage to the starting motor, fuel pump and
injector.
If the engine is started under a closed status of air inlet, the
supercharger will be seriously damaged. Please confirm the air inlet
emergency cut-off valve is opened before starting the engine.
If the engine fails to start within 15 seconds, release the starter
switch and wait for 15 seconds to allow the starter to cool before
attempting to start the engine again. If the engine fails to start after

4 times, overhaul the engine to confirm causes.
When possible, avoid useless idle. The common concept that engine
run at idle will not cause damage to the engine is wrong. Idling will
cause sulfuric acid to decompose the lube oil and erode the bearing,
piston ring, valve stem and engine surface. When the transmission is
shifted to NEUTRAL and the engine runs at idle for long time, the
engine coolant temperature will drop below the normal working
range. In the cold engine, the incomplete burned fuel will cause
dilution of the crankcase lube oil, glue film or gummy precipitation to
the air valve, piston and piston ring to produce rapid sediment as oil
sludge in the engine. When required for long-time idling, the engine
rpm should be maintained at 850 rpm in spring/summer time and at
1200 rpm in fall and winter time.
Under normal working conditions, stop the engine as follows: Reduce
the engine speed to low idle and set all gear shifts to no load. Note:
Stopping of the engine equipped with turbine supercharger without
allowing the engine to cool completely after high speed running will
cause damage to the turbine supercharger for the reason that it is
continuously rotating without lube oil supply to the bearing.
Warning:
When work is performed around an engine that is operating, do not
wear loose clothing or jewelry that can snag on controls or on other
parts of the engine. Also your long hair should be tightened or
covered to avoid seizing by moving parts of the engine.
Wear a hard hat, protective glasses protective devices for ears and
other protective equipment as required when operating the engine or
working around the engine.
Wear protective gloves and working clothes to avoid direct skin
contact to the used engine oil containing contaminant,
Conduct an immediate cleaning of the spilled fluid to avoid injury by
falling down from foot slip.
Do not stand around the engine drive belt and engine rotating parts.
Do not smoke or light near the operating engine.
Diesel engine exhaust and some of its unknown constituents are to
cause cancer, birth defects and other reproductive harm. Start and
operate engine in an area with good ventilation. If operating an
engine in a closed environment, the exhaust should be towards the
outside. It is prohibited to modify or lessen the air exhaust system or
emission control system.

2.3 CARE AND MAINTENANCE

Periodic inspections

Careful attention to the fluid level and connections for the electronic and hydraulic circuits is very
important.

For easier inspection, the transmission should be kept clean. Make regular periodic inspections and
check:

For loose bolts.


For leaking fluid around fittings, lines, and transmission openings.

The condition of the electrical harnesses.
The engine cooling system for presence of transmission fluid and check the transmission fluid
for presence of coolant, which would indicate a faulty oil cooler.
Check the breather to make sure it is clean and free for dirt or debris.

Report any abnormal condition to service management.

Prevent major problems

Help Allison 4th Generation Controls oversee the operation of the transmission. Minor problems can
be kept from becoming major problems if an Allison Transmission distributer or dealer is noticed
when one of these conditions occurs:

Shifting feels odd.


Transmission leaks fluid.
Unusual transmission-related sounds (changes in sound caused by normal engine thermostatic
fan cycling, while climbing a long grade with a heavy load, have been mistaken for
transmission-related sounds).
CHECK TRANS lights comes on frequently.

2.4 TRANSMISSION FLUID

Recommended automatic transmission fluid and viscosity grade

Hydraulic fluids used in the transmission are important influences on transmission


performance, reliability and durability. TranSyndTM DEXRON III fluids are recommended.
TranSyndTM is a full synthetic transmission fluid developed by Allison Transmission and Castrol
Ltd. This fluid meets Allison specifications for Severe Duty and Extended Drain Intervals.
TranSyndTM is fully qualified to the Allison TES 295 specifications and is available through
Allison distributors and dealerships.
To be sure a fluid is qualified for use in Allison transmissions check for the DEXRON III
license numbers on the container or consult the lubricant manufacturer. Consult your Allison
Transmission dealer or distributor before using other fluid types.

CAUTION: Disregarding minimum fluid temperature limits can result


in transmission malfunction or reduced transmission life.

When choosing the optimum viscosity grade of fluid, duty cycle, preheat capabilities, and/or
geographical location must be taken into consideration. The Transmission Fluid Operating
Temperature Requirements table lists the minimum fluid temperatures at which the
transmission may be safely operated without reheating. Preheat with auxiliary heating
equipment or by running the equipment with the transmission in neutral for a minimum of 20
minutes before attempting range operation.

SAE 30W 0 32
SAE 40W 10 50
* SAE W designation indicates winter weight based on cold temperature properties.

Keeping fluid clean

CAUTION: Containers or fillers that have been used for antifreeze solution or
engine coolant must NEVER be used for transmission fluid. Antifreeze and
coolant solutions contain ethylene glycol which, if put into the transmission,
can cause the clutch plates and some seals to fail.

It is absolutely necessary that transmission fluid be clean. The fluid must be handled in
clean containers to prevent foreign material from entering the transmission.

NOTE: Change fluid/filters at or before recommended mileage, moths, or


hours have elapsed, whichever comes first. In some cases, operating hours
may represent a more reliable measure of oil life; therefore, fluid change
intervals should not be based on mileage alone.

CAUTION: Transmission fluid and filters must be changed whenever there is


evidence of dirt or a high temperature condition. A high temperature
condition is indicated when the transmission fluid is discolored, has a strong
odor, or has exceeded oil analysis limits.

Recommended Fluid/Filter Change For 4700 Transmission

NOTE: Severe and General Vocations Local conditions, severity of operation, or duty cycle
may require more or less frequent fluid change intervals that differ from the published
recommended fluid change intervals of Allison Transmission. Transmission protection and fluid
change intervals can be optimized by using fluid analysis. Filter must be changed at or before
recommended intervals. Change fluid/filter after recommended mileage, months, or hours
have elapsed, whichever comes first.

Refill Transmission. The amount of refill fluid is less than the amount used for the initial fill.
Fluid remains in the external circuits and transmission cavities after draining the transmission.
After refill, check the fluid level.

2.5 FLUID LEVEL CHECK

1) Recognizing the fluid level dipstick

The fluid level dipstick is an important device used to measure the fluid volume in the transmission.
Of course, Allison has provided other means to measure the fluid volume. Therefore, it is
necessary to understand the fluid level dipstick.

Fig. 6-1 indicates the fluid level scale on the dipstick. This dipstick has the HOT band and the
COLD band. In each band there are upper and lower level limits. Therefore, the fluid filling
procedure of the automatic transmission is quite different from that of the manual transmission.
The auto transmission requires re-measurement under the hot condition after fluid filling and
checking under the cold condition in order to make the fluid volume to meet both requirements of

7
the fluid volume under hot and cold conditions.

2) Evaluation of the initial fill

For initial fill of fluid to the 4700 series transmission itself and external circuits, please
see the following table.

Type c/w retarder, deep sump

Transmission 27 L

Oil line 0.7 L/m

Cooler 2.5 L

Accumulator 0.9 L

Please note that all data in the table are only for reference, for a) the transmission will have a
certain amount of fluid remained inside after test at factory; b) length of each oil line is different.

3) Cold check

WARNING: Fluid level check requires the engine startup. Therefore you
have to complete all of the following procedures:
Put the transmission in N (Neutral).
Be sure the engine is at low idle.

8
PCS-521B Twin Engine and Twin Pump Cementing Skid
Operation and Maintenance Manual
B01-00-217_A

1. Fix the equipment base..


2. Start the engine for about one minute. First shift to D (Drive) and then to N (Neutral) to
allow the fluid completely fill the hydraulic system.
3. Shift to N (Neutral) and run the engine at idle (500 800 rpm/minute). Remove the
dipstick and wipe it clean.
4. Insert the dipstick into the fill tube, pushing down until it stops. Remove the dipstick and
observe the fluid level. Repeat this step to verify the level.
5. Add or drain fluid as necessary to bring the level within the middle band of the COLD
FULL and the COLD ADD. See Fig. 6-1.

4) Hot check

1. Shift the transmission to D (drive) and keep running after normal operating temperature
is reached:
Sump temperature is 7193 (160200).
The torque converter outlet temperature is 82104 (180220).
If the transmission is not equipped with a temperature gauge, hot check can be
performed after the engine water temperature gauge reading is stable and the
transmission runs under load for minimum of 1 hour.
2. Park the vehicle on a level surface and shift to N (Neutral) to allow the engine to idle (500
800 rpm/minute).
3. With the engine running, remove the dipstick and wipe it clean.
4. Insert the dipstick into the fill tube, pushing down until it stops. Remove the dipstick and
observe the fluid level. Repeat this step to verify the level.
5. Add or drain fluid as necessary to bring the level within the middle band of the HOT
FULL and the HOT ADD. See Fig. 6-1.

CAUTION: Clean container and oiler must be used to prevent foreign


materials from entering the transmission. When to add, the dipstick
should be put in a clean place.

NEVER use the container or oiler that has contained antifreeze or engine
coolant to add. The antifreeze and coolant have ethylene and glycol. If
entered the transmission, clutched plates will be damaged.

9
5) Importance of proper fluid level
It is important that the proper fluid level be maintained at all times because the
transmission fluid cool, lubricates and transmits hydraulic power. If the fluid level is too
low, the converter and clutches do not receive an adequate supply of fluid. If fluid level is
too high, the fluid can aerate. Aerated fluid can cause the transmission to shift erratically
or overheat.

Fluid level check using pushbutton or handle shift selector to obtain the level, the
transmission should be equipped with oil level sensor.

NOTE: Use AllisionDOCTM diagnostic tools to check the fault code of


the oil level sensor.

NOTE: Allison 4th Generation Controls displays fluid level diagnostic


information two characters at a time. Pay attention to the information
displayed order especially for OLand LO. For example:

OL59: It is a fault code; it indicates that the engine speed is too


high so that the correct level cannot be received rather than the
transmission fluid level lower than 5.9 quart.

OL LO 05: I t is the low level fault code, it indicates that the


transmission fluid level is lower than 5 quart, fluid level fault code
indicated low or high level will not be displayed in the form of fraction.

Correct Fluid Level o L is displayed (o L represents Fluid (Oil) Level Check Mode),
followed by o K. The o K display indicates the fluid is within the correct fluid level zone.
The sensor display and the transmission dipstick may not agree exactly because the oil level
sensor compensates for fluid temperature.
Low Fluid Level o L is displayed (o L represents Fluid (Oil) Level Check Mode),
followed by L oL o represents Low Oil Leveland the number of quarts the
transmission fluid is low.
o L L o 0 2 Where 2 indicates that 2 additional quarts of fluid will bring the fluid level
within the middle of the o K zone.
High Fluid Level o L is displayed (o L represents Fluid (Oil) Level Check Mode),
followed by H I (H I represents High Oil Level) and the number of quarts the
transmission is overfilled.
Example: o L H I 0 1
Where 1 indicates 1 quart of fluid above the full transmission level.
Invalid for Display o L is displayed (o L represents Fluid (Oil) Level Check Mode),
followed by and a numerical display. The numerical display is a fault code and indicates
conditions are not proper to receive the fluid level information, or there is a system
malfunction. The fault codes that may be encountered are shown in the Fluid Level Fault
Codes table.

Lever shift selector

The lever shift selector includes the following:

HOLD OVERRIDE button


MODE button
Digital display
DISPLAY MODE/DIAGNOSTIC button

HOLD OVERRIDE Button. The level shift selector has three locked positions to prevent
accidentally selecting R (Reverse), N (Neutral, or D (Drive, including 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th). Select N
(Neutral, or D (Drive) by pressing the HOLD OVERRIDE button and moving the level to the
13
desired position. Once D (Drive) is selected, lower forward range positions may be selected
without pressing the HOLD OVERRIDE button.

DISPLAY MODE/DIAGNOSTIC button. Press once the DISPLAY MODE/DIAGNOSTIC button


once to obtain transmission fluid level information and a second time to obtain diagnostic code
information. After entering the diagnostic display mode, the digital display will show D1 to
indicate the first alarm code. Press the MODE button to check the next diagnostic code, Repeat
this step to check the second, third, fourth and fifth codes. If the mode indicator (light) is
illuminated, the fault diagnostic code displayed is active.

Pushbutton shift selector

The pushbutton shift selector has the following:

R (Reverse) Press this button to select Reverse.(locked)


N (Neutral) Press this button to select Neutral.
D (Drive) Press this button to select Drive. The highest forward range available will appear
in the digital display window. The transmission will start out in the lowest available forward
range and advance automatically to the highest range.
(Up) Arrow Press the Up Arrow when in DRIVE to request the next higher range.
Continuously pressing the Up Arrow will request the highest range available.
(Down) Arrow Press the Down Arrow when in the DRIVE to request the next lower
range. Continuously pressing the Down Arrow will request the lowest range available.
MODE Button and Display Mode/Diagnostic Button This is the same function as
described previously in the Lever Shift Selector paragraph, MODE Button paragraph.

Check Trans Light

In normal operation conditions, each time the engine is started, the CHECK TRANS light will
illuminate, then turn off after a few seconds. This momentary lighting is to show that the status
light circuits are working properly.

At the same time, the digital display will show NN with the first N to indicate the current selected
shift and the second N to indicate the current actual shift.

If the CHECK TRANS light does not illuminate during ignition, or if the light remains on after
ignition, the system should be checked immediately.

After ignition, If the double digit display shows blank for 10 seconds and then show , this
means the shift selector cannot communicate with the TCM or has an internal problem.

Continued illumination of the CHECK TRANS light during operation indicates that the TCM has
signaled a diagnostic code. Illumination of the CHECK TRANS light is accompanied by a flashing
display from the shift selector. The shift selector display will show the actual range attained and
the transmission will not respond to shift selector request.

When the CHECK TRANS light comes on and the ignition switch id turned off, the transmission will
remain in N (Neutral) until the condition causing the CHECK TRANS light is corrected.

Generally, while the CHECK TRANS light is on, up shifts and downshifts will be restricted and
direction changes will not occur. Lever and pushbutton shift selectors do not respond to any
operator shift request while the CHECK TRANS light is illuminated.

Introduction to Maintenance

Necessary daily maintenance on the TPH400 can enhance the pump service life. Some simple
repair and maintenance can be done by the user at the site or at the base. However, overhaul on
the TPH400 pump must be done at the related SJS department.

Preventive maintenance means maintenance should be performed before the job, in the job and
after the job on some concerned problems. Some maintenance after the job allows the user to
perform a certain repair on the pump such as replacement of parts for the fluid end. This repair
can provide related data for overhaul the pump. Daily maintenance is a continuous process.

Preventive Maintenance Procedure

The related forms of the procedure are attached for the operator to fill up. The main contents of
the maintenance requirements are as follows:

Before the job

1) Loosen and open the oil filling cover to check the power end lube oil is sufficient or not. There
is an oil level gauge with scale. If the oil is not sufficient, refill is required. Attention: same type
of oil should be used. Do not mix with different brands of lube oil.

Check the lube oil type is suitable or not. The power end lube oil pour point must be 12.2 below
the working environmental temperature to ensure its flow performance. At the same time, its
individual characteristics should be considered. Lube oil that partially meeting this requirement
should not be appropriately used under a temperature. For selection of lube oil, please refer to
the Table 7 in the Section 5 of this manual.

From the pointer zones on the filter, you can check the blockage degree of the filter. The yellow
zone indicates cleaning is required. When for cleaning, you should firstly remove the filter from
the lube line. Loosen the clamping spring at the pointer. Slightly remove off the pointer case. Do
not damage the O ring and the pointer. Loosen 4 bolts at the top. Remove the filter body (usually
with oil inside). Pour out the remaining oil. Remove the filter strainer. Use cleanser to fully clean
and air blow dry the strainer. Vice verse, the filter can be installed back according to these steps.

Check the packing lube system. Check the lube oil tank level height, open the separate switch,
adjust the air pressure between 0.27~0.4MPa, loosen the packing adapter to see whether oil is
injected out or not. To gain the packing lube oil flow, you should adjust the flow rate regulator
valve. The flow should be regarded suitable when the lube oil flows between the linear status and
the dripping status.

Check the lube oil temperature of the triplex plunger pumps power end and fluid end. The triplex
plunger pump can not properly work before the lube oil temperature is over 40 . The pump
should first run at low speed with no load and then run at high speed with load while the
temperature is increased. Low temperature will thicken the lube oil to flow and make it difficult to
form oil film or to produce poor lubrication. Service life of the bearing and worm can be decreased
and the equipment can be damaged when the lubrication problem is serious.

In the job

2) Observe the lube oil pressure gauge all the time. According to the design requirements of the
lube oil pump, the oil pressure should not be less than 20PSI when the worm speed is 190rpm. To
guarantee service life of the plunger pump, the recommended min. displacement of the lube oil
at working should be 135L/minute at pressure of 80~100PSI.

Adjustment of working pressure of the discharge flange. Max. pressure should be 20000PSI
(137.9MPa) for 3.375 TPH400 pump; and max. pressure should be 14000PSI (77.2MPa) for 4

3-3 http://www.sjs.ServaCorp.com
PCS-521B Twin Engine and Twin Pump Cementing Skid
Operation and Maintenance Manual
B01-00-217_A

TPH400 pumpAnd max. pressure should be 11200PSI (77.2MPa) for 4.5

TPH400 pump. Warning: When this working pressure is excelled, the triplex plunger pump would
be overpressurized. This will cause damage to the equipment and personal injury or death.

Check the packing for oil leakage every 10 minutes. Observe the packing for apparent abnormal
conditions such as smoking, etc. If the packing is found leakage, you should use the packing
spanner (P40-09-009) to tighten the packing. If still leaked, new replacement of packing is
required.

After the job

3) Close the packing lubrication system. Open the suction and discharge valves to drain the
remaining water or other medium in the pump head and blow dry using dry air. If the pump is
used for acidizing, the pump head should be fully cleaned with clean water and blown dry. Check
oil volume of the power end. Check oil volume of the packing lube oil. Refill if necessary. Check
the power end lube oil. If found milky bubbles, that means water is mixed in the lube oil. New
replacement of lube oil is required. Please record every replacement of lube oil for reference of
the next job. Check the blockage indication of the filter. Fill up the Daily Record of Work.

Daily routing maintenance

Every accumulative 10hrs or every 5 times of operations: Check valve parts of the fluid end.
Every accumulative 100hrs or every 3 months: Remove the side cover plate of the worm gear box
to check the worm gear surface conditions. If found distinctive wear or crack, the triplex plunger
pump should be dismantled to replace the gear and worm. If found darkening on the worm gear,
this indicates the worm gear has depressed area by centralized compression stress. We strongly
recommend replacing with new worm gear and worm.

Note: When crack is found on the worm surfaces or 50% pitting found
on the tooth surface, the pump cannot be further used. Continuous
operation of the pump will cause serious damage to the equipment and
personal injury.

Every accumulative 200hrs or every 6 months: Replace the power end lube oil. Open the power
end and the teat exchanger and use diesel to clean them.

Note: If synthetic lube oil such as Mobil SHC-634 is used, the cleaning
time of the power end can be extended to 2 years or 1000hrs.

4) The filter should be cleaned after each change of the power end lube oil or every 6 months,
even though there is no indication in the yellow zone. Better establish maintenance schedules for
cleaning of the filter in the time of spring and fall to avoid abnormity to the device caused by
tremendous changes of the environmental temperature.

Transportation and storage

When delivered from the factory, the plunger pump should not have any oil inside during
transportation. Therefore, the plunger pump must be refilled with lube oil before starting the
operation.
When delivered from the factory, the plunger pump should be painted according to the
customers requirements. If no special requirements, the pump is usually painted with prime
coating.

Operation and Maintenance Manual
B01-00-217_A

The plunger pump is usually applied with anti-rust oil on the metal surfaces. For sea freight,

measures should be taken to prevent soaking and corrosion from sea water.

Packaging for new pump is not for long-time storage. The pump should be put into operation as
soon as possible. If not, the fluid end of the pump should be fully cleaned and applied with
anti-rust oil. The discharge flange outlet and the suction inlet should be blocked. The oil in the
power end should be drained out and fully cleaned with anti-rust oil. The power end lube line
should be flushed to prevent blockage from rusting. Remove the breather valve (oil filling port) on
the power end. Tighten plugs onto the oil filling port and lube oil inlet to guarantee full sealing of
the power end. The metal surfaces exposed to air such as the input flanges, etc. should be applied
with strong anti-rust oil. The pump should be stored in a warm and dry environment.

After storage of 2 weeks or more, when the pump is restored to operation, it must be applied lube
oil or the dry rubber seals will more easily get damage on the surfaces.

Common Troubles and Causes

Packing

Problems occurred when replacing with new packing:

Cause 1: The packing size is not correct.


Solution: Check the plunger size and select a correct size of SJS packing.

Cause 2: Each ring is not matched.


Solution: Reinstall them according to installation methods mentioned in the drawing
requirements.

Cause 3: The packing is too long.


Solution: Contact SJS Engineering Dept. to check the packing size in the drawing.

Cause 4: The packing is frozen.


Solution: Remove and reinstall it by heating the pump head.

Cause 5: The plunger has eccentric wear and damaged the packing.
Solution: Remove and replace the packing according to the drawing.

The packing got hot rapidly after starting the operation.

Cause 1: The fluid end is not installed with full packing or the plunger is not aligned with
the packing. Some deformation causes the eccentric wear of the metal ring by
the plunger.
Solution: Remove and replace the packing. Confirm the pump head is fully filled with fluid.
Confirm the valve is working normally. Slowly start the plunger pump and make
it self adjusted to the normal working.

Cause 2: Internal bore size of the packing metal ring is out of tolerance and causes friction
and heat of the plunger.
Solution: Measure sizes of the packing seat ring and the guide ring, and replace the
packing.

Note: The TPH400 plunger pump adopts SPS packings. Do not mix with
other brands of packings.

PCS-521B Twin Engine and Twin Pump Cementing Skid
Operation and Maintenance Manual
B01-00-217_A
The packing got hot rapidly after the pressure is reached.

Cause 1: The packing is not well lubricated.


Solution: Check the packing lube oil tank is sufficient or not. Check outlet of each high
pressure check valve has oil or not. Both big plunger and small plunger require
more lube oil.

Cause 2: Damaged discharge valve or poor seal will cause the packing under high
pressure for long time and make lube oil difficult to fully reach to the plunger
surface. Both of them can happen at operation of the pump.
Solution: Replace the valve.

Cause 3: The packing is too loose to cause the fluid end high pressure fluid to enter the
packing.
Solution: Check the packing is assembled according to the drawing or not. Reinstall it.

Cause 4: The plunger surface is very rough.


Solution: Remove the plunger and check the surface groove. Less than 4 or 5RMS will
cause heat due to no oil film. More than 16RMS will cause too much friction of the
packing to generate heat. If found apparent scratches, the plunger should be
replaced.

Cause 5: Air pocket is produced in the pump head for not fully filled with fluid.
Solution: Confirm the pump runs in the normal pressurized system. Meanwhile, working
medium with high viscosity or pumping fluid at high speed will also cause
temperature increase.

The packing got hot after 1 to 2 hours.

Cause: The pumped fluid enters the packing and frictions with the packing.
Solution: Replace with a high performance packing to increase the booster valve pressure
of the packing lubrication system.

The packings life is too short.

Cause 1: The packing lube rate is not sufficient.


Solution: Remove the damaged packing. Test the packing lube oil for free flow. Rate of 20
drippings per minute or more is recommended.

Cause 2: The packing lubrication system has no oil.


Solution: Check the packing lube oil tank is sufficient or not.

Cause 3: Pump cavitation caused low pressure or insufficient fluid in the suction manifold
when the pumping fluid source is changed.
Solution: Pumping plan should be well arranged. When such change is required, the
change time should be quick.

Cause 4: Scratches on the plunger surface caused by wrong fused metal material or
insufficient thickness of the fused metal material corresponding to the job fluid.
Solution: Contact SJS Engineering Dept. to select an appropriate fused metal material
with right thickness.

Cause 5: The plunger surface has pitting to increase friction and heat.
Solution: Replace the plunger.

Cause 6: The packing lube oil is polluted.

Solution: Replace the packing lube oil.

Plunger

Cause 1: The guide ring gap is too big to cause eccentric wear to the packing by the
plunger and also cause damage to the fused metal material on the plunger
surface.
Solution: Remove the guide ring and reject it immediately. Replace with a new guide ring
with correct size.

Cause 2: The guide ring material is not correct.


Solution: Replace with a new guide ring with proper hardness.

Cause 3: The plunger is not calibrated for size.


Solution: Check the burrs on the connecting rods crossheads and the connecting rods
bolts, and the matched perpendicularity of the plunger itself to its end faces.

Cause 4: The plunger has deformation or conical surface.


Solution: Remove the plunger. Check the circularity and conicity. Roll the plunger on a flat
table. If it is deformed, the plunger will jump up. If it has a conical surface, the
plunger will roll a circle along the cone point.

Cause 5: The plunger deforms by weight and clamps the packing due to the fact that the
plunger pump is stored for a very long time.
Solution: Replace the plunger and packing components.

Valve and valve seat

Cause 1: Chemical corrosion, especially acid.


Solution: Make clear of the composition of the pumped fluid. Different materials of valve
rubbers should be suitable for different oil well operations.

Cause 2: The pumped fluid contains high arene and aniline solvent to cause the valve
rubber to swell.
Solution: Replace with a high performance packing or contact SJS Engineering Dept.

Cause 3: The conical surface of the valve seat is damaged by the facts that the valve seat
is not completely removed for burrs and residues at its installation; the conical
surface is damaged; the sealing is not guaranteed and pressure cannot be
increased.
Solution: Before installation of the valve seat, the benchman should remove all burrs and
clean the surface. Otherwisely damage will occur to the conical surface in a large
scale. If damaged, please contact SJS Engineering Dept. to confirm whether it
can be repaired or not.

Cause 4: The valve movement is in connection with the spring. Improper installation of
the valve and spring will affect the guiding angle of the valve.
Solution: Use the proper valve and valve seat. Properly install the spring according to the
SJS spring requirements.

Cause 5: Improper spring and installation method will cause no reset of the valve.
Solution: Select a proper spring according to the drawing or contact SJS Engineering Dept.
for technical support.

Cause 6: The valve seat is not cleaned or applied with lube oil before installation. The
valve seat jumps out in the operation.
Solution: After cleaning the conical surface of the valve seat, the valve seat must be
installed under a dry condition. Use a 10 pound hammer to hit the valve seat into

the valve body.

Cause 7: Temperature of the pumped fluid is too high to damage the valve rubber.
Solution: The standard valve rubber is polyurethane with temperature resistance of 180F.
If this temperature is excelled over, please contact SJS Engineering Dept.

Section 8
Hydraulic System
8.1 WORKING PRINCIPLE

Fig. 8-1 illustrates the working principle of the hydraulic system.


Table 8-1 is a main parts list of the hydraulic system.

The hydraulic system consists of hyd. oil tank, 4 variable plunger pumps, 4 gear oil pumps, 4
constant displacement motors, vane motors, oil cooler, cylinders, control valves and other hyd.
accessories.

The hydraulic system consists of two independent systems, closed and open. The closed hydraulic
system is designed to drive 4 centrifugal pumps. The open hydraulic system is designed to drive
the agitator in the mixing tub, the agitator in the displacement tank, the injector cylinder and dry
cement cylinder.

8.2 OPERATIONS

In the closed hydraulic system, the speeds of the drive motors (Part 13, Part 14) of 4 centrifugal
pumps can be continuously adjusted from zero to maximum by using the combination valve
installed in the control box. The combination valve (Part 6) is an overflow valve set to adjust and
limit the maximum speeds of four centrifugal pumps. This valve is set before shipment. The max.
speed of the clear water centrifugal pump is set as 2900RPM. The speed of circulating centrifugal
pump is 2100RPM. The speed of the charging centrifugal pump is set as 1900RPM. The continuous
working pressure of the closed hydraulic system can reach up to 21MPa (3000psi), and max. oil
pressure up to reach up to 35MPa (5000psi). The working pressure is indicated by the pressure
gauge on the control console.

In the open hydraulic system, the speeds of the motors (Part 4, Part 20) of the agitators of the
mixing tank and the displacement tank are controlled between 0~300RPM by the choke valve c
(Part 8) /w overflow valve on the control console. The set values for the overflow valves in the
agitating systems of the metering tank and mixing tub are set separately as 21MPa and 11.5MPa.

Actions of the dry cement oil cylinder and the clear water cylinder are manually controlled by the
manual direction-changing valve (Part 9) c/w overflow valve or automatically controlled by the
computer system via the solenoid valve (Part 10). The overflow pressure of the manual valve is
set as 5MPa. The working oil pressure is displayed by the pressure gauge on the instrument
console.

When the oil return filter is dirty, the flow rate will drop or fluctuate. The filter indicator should be
observed at ordinary times and changed every three months according to experience or working.

Table 9-1 Main Parts List of the Air System

The air system consists of air reservoir tank, pressure relief valve, oil/water separator, and all
control valves. The air system pressure is 0.60.8MPa to provide power for engine startup &
shutdown, operations of butterfly valves and lubrication of centrifugal pumps and plunger pump
packings.

The air source for engine startup should meet the requirements of pressure of 0.7MPa and min.
flow rate of 14.3L/s.

The compressed air from the externally-connected air source first enters the air reservoir tank.
The function of the air reservoir tank is to resolve the contradiction between supply and demand

aroused from extensive use of air in a short time and separate water and oil from the gas by
natural cooling at the same time. On its outlet, a safety valve with set pressure of 0.8MPa is
installed. The oil/water separator and oil fogger component on the side of the control box
separates the foreign objects, oil and water from the compressed air, atomizes the lube oil and
injects into the air flow, follows the compressed air to enter the locations requiring lubrication
leads to achieve the lubrication purposes. The compressed air, after treatment, is led to each
control valve to operate the related actuators.

8. Drain Valve (on the bottom of oil tank): Used to drain the foreign objects deposited in the
tank.
9. Check Valve: PN# is X04-00-652. Used to prevent the slurry from entering the lube pipeline
after leaking from the packing sealing.

10.2 Packing Lube System Operations

The air pressure required by the lubrication system is 0.3-0.4MPa. Therefore, before starting the
plunger pumps and centrifugal pumps, the air source switch (Part 3) must be firstly open.
Regulate and confirm the air pressure from the regulating valve (Part 2) to the air reservoir tank
(Part 1). When for initial use, the lube oil volume should be regulated. Steps are: Remove the oil
pipe to the plunger pump and centrifugal packings. Separately open the ball valve switch (Part 5)
and regulating needle valve (Part 6) on each pipeline. Observe lube oil flow rate for stable and
steady flow. Well connect the oil pipe line. For later works, you only need to open and close the
ball valve without repetition of the above-mentioned steps. After completion of job, you should
timely close ball valves on each line to avoid waste of lube oil. Before each cementing job, you
should check the lube oil volume. The lube oil volume should no less than 1/2 of the dipstick
marking.

Caution: When opening the packing lube oil tank to add oil, please first close the
pressure release ball valve on the air line to release pressure from the packing lube oil
tank. When the pressure gauge reading is 0, slowly open the lube oil tank. When
under pressure, the lube oil tank should not be opened.

10.3 Pump Power End Lube System

The pump power end lubrication system needs no operations. It will automatically cool down
through fan and radiator when temperature is up to a certain degree.

Automatic Mixing System
12.1 MIXING SYSTEM

The mixing system is a high energy recirculating type. It mainly consists of high energy mixer,
cement valve, diffuser tub, mixing tank, agitator impeller, recirculating pump, booster pump and
water pump. The required high energy for mixing comes from water centrifugal pump and
recirculating centrifugal pump. Dry bulk cement goes to the cement valve with a rate controlled
by hand or controlled by computer. Water current injected by the high energy mixer at high
speed not only form a negative pressure to suction the dry cement, but also moisture the dry
bulk cement to the maximum extent. The recirculating pump is used to secondary or more
circulation for the slurry between the mixing tube and the injector. The diffuser tub is used to
remove gas in the initial mixed slurry and dust from the mixing tank. The 20bbl mixing tank
allows a certain holding time to fully and uniformly mix the slurry. The deep tank design can
ensure better pumping head to maximally reduce vortex and cavitation effects. The
hydraulically-driven agitator impellers can effectively increase high mixing energy to make the
slurry density more uniform.

2) Agitator: Help to further mixing of the old and new slurry. Increase mixing energy.
3) High energy mixer (Injector for short): the device for initial mixing of slurry. The high
pressure clean water produced by the clean water centrifugal pump forms injected water
current in the injector. The negative pressure energy produced thereof suction and fully mix

the dry bulk cement in the cement line. The slurry returned from the recirculating centrifugal
pump refills the mixer to complete secondary or more circulation. Adjustment of the clean
water rate for the mixer is controlled by the manual valve through the clean water cylinder.
4) Adjusting cylinder for clear water: Actuator for adjustment of the clear water rate. Manual
valve controlled.
5) Metering valve for dry bulk cement.
6) Main control valve for the recirculating pipeline: This valve is used to cut off the recirculating
slurry loop to the injector. This valve is a normally-open valve. When the booster pump cannot
work normally, close this valve. The recirculating pump is regarded as the booster pump. This
valve can be also used to clean the equipment or clean the slurry on the densitometer.
7) Diffuser tub: To remove the air in the dry bulk cement and maximally reduce the air content
in the slurry and remove the dust in the mixing tank under normal operating conditions.
8) Manual valve for adjustment of clear water: To adjust the clear water rate to the injector. Also
the controller for the clear water adjusting cylinder. Normally, max. clear water rate is 1.9
m3/min (500gal/min).
Note: Under normal conditions, adjustment of this valve cannot completely cut off the clean
water.
9) Manual valve for dry bulk cement: To adjust opening of the dry bulk cement and control dry
bulk cement volume under manual mode.
10) Speed regulating valve for mixing agitator: To regulate speed of the mixing agitator, normally
in the range of 0-300RPM.
11) Speed regulating valve for agitator in displacement tank: To regulate speed of the agitator in
the range of 0-300RPM.
12) Main control valve for clear water (not shown in the photo): 3 butterfly valve, normally-open
valve, PN# B10-07-010, used to completely cut off the clear water.

Fig.12-3 Dry Bulk Cement Valve Component

1) Metering valve for dry bulk cement (cement valve for short): The device to adjust delivery
volume of dry bulk cement. This valve can reliably meter the delivery volume of dry bulk
cement even when the delivery volume is relatively low. Dry bulk cement can avoid caking to
block the delivery line. The cement valve is of approximate linearity. When the delivery
pressure is at 0.17-0.21Mpa (25-30psi), the valve is positioned at 2-5 to guarantee the
system can work normally under general conditions. Usually, air pressure is related to the
cement line size, delivery distance and type of cement. If the dry bulk cement delivery system
pressure drops such as the air compressor for the dry bulk cement cannot meet the system
requirements, the cement valve should be further opened. When the cement valve is opened
to 80%, that means the dry bulk cement tank is almost empty or the delivery line is blocked
or the air compressor pressure is insufficient. At this time, slurry rate should be decreased.
The cement valve should not be wet or flushed with clean water during the mixing process.
2) Double acting cylinder: PN# X00-00-483, the actuator for adjustment of opening of the
cement valve. Either manually controlled by the manual valve or automatically controlled by
the computer system thru solenoid valve.

4) Main control valve for dry bulk cement: PN# F32-29-887, 5 butterfly valve. Acts as switch of
the dry bulk cement delivery line. When to start job, slowly open this valve to reduce pressure
impact at the initial. Wait for stable flow of the dry bulk cement. Open this valve completely to
use the proportional cement valve to control the delivery volume of the dry bulk cement.
5) Breather valve: PN# X02-00-158. When the vacuum degree in the cement valve is relatively
high, this valve will be automatically opened to intake air to prevent water dripping in the
mixer from entering the cement valve to cause condensation.
6) Dial: To indicate current opening of the cement valve. The range is 0-10.
7) Encoder: Transducer to measure opening position of the cement valve. To transmit collected
signals to the computer control system.
8) Needle valve: 1/4"needle valve, to control operation flexibility of the cement valve cylinder. If
action of the cement valve cylinder is too sensitive, this valve can be suitably closed to reduce
the hydraulic oil rate to this valve.

1) Drain valve: Used to drain residual fluid in the pump after completion of job. If still have fluid,
it will possibly damage the pump. Especially in winter the residual fluid will be frozen to
damage the pump housing. Therefore at this period, this valve should be kept open.
2) RA56 recirculating pump: An oilfiled special-purpose centrifugal pump with features of simple
construction, light weight, and economic and practical use.
3) Packing lubrication line and check valve: Before operations, the lube oil switch must be opened
before operations and close after completion of operations to avoid pollution and waste caused
by leakage of the packing.
4) Bearing lubrication: At both ends of the bearing cartridge, grease fittings are installed. The
bearing should be regularly greased according to the job time and job temperature. Usually,
every three months, the bearing catridge should be filled with grease by using a grease gun.

Note: Under general conditions, the recirculating centrifugal pump and the booster centrifugal
pump are used as special pumps. When one of these two pumps has a problem, the other one can
be used as substitution or one pump can be used to complete tasks of two pumps.

12.5 SJS-ACM SYSTEM

This section only briefly introduces the ACM-IV.1 automatic density control mixing system. For
details, please refer to the Operation Manual of ACM-IV.1.

The ACM-IV.1 automatic density control mixing system is the most advanced computerized
automatic density control system. The system can perform real-time adjustment according to the
changes slurry set density, dry bulk cement supply capability, water supply conditions and slurry
displacement to ensure the slurrys stable density.

Max. mixing capacity: 2.3 m3/min (2--14.4bpm)


Slurry density: 1.3-2.5g /cm3(10.8-21PPG)
Slurry density tolerance: 0.02g/cm3(0.17PPG)
Densitometer: 3 Micro Motion Non Radioactive Densitometer

12.5.1 Working principle of the automatic mixing system

Fig.12-6 Schematic and Flow Chart of the ACM-IV.1 System

PCS-521B Twin Engine and Twin Pump Cementing Skid
Operation and Maintenance Manual
B01-00-217_A
Fig.11-5 is the schematic and flow chart of the automatic mixing system. The dry bulk cement
enters the high energy mixer thru the cement tank with volume controlled by eccentric type
cement valve. Clear water enters the mixer thru the injector pump with volume metered by the
metering gauge. The clear water cylinder is either manually or automatically controlled.

12.5.2 Automatic density control

The control system responds to three possible changes during the job: water rate, density, and
cement bulk delivery. The water flow meter measures the water rate and provides feedback to the
controller. Then the controller uses this data to set control gain values and the cement metering
valve nominal operating position. The result is that for whatever reasons the water rate changes,
the cement metering valve will be repositioned appropriately without waiting for the density
change. The controller takes density readings every second and PID algorithm uses the data
along with water rate to adjust the opening of the cement metering valve. PID coefficients vary
with throughput rate and tub volume. Usually operators like to change the set density so that they
can thicken the slurry at the tail end of the mixing. In this case, the controller calculates the new
valve position based on the current calibration, the new density and water rate. The new valve
position is not based primarily on an error signal but a known go-to position. Once it reaches
that position and still there is some error, then the PID control takes over. This error is normally
minimal. Position corrections of the cement metering valve can also be required due to irregular
and/or declining bulk cement delivery from the bulk supply. The ACM continually calculates the
actual calibration value of the valve, which is the amount of cement being delivered by the valve
at its current position. With the updated calibration and the known amount of cement required for
preset density (calculated by the ACM microprocessor) and slurry rate, the cement valve again is
driven to a go-to position.

12.5.3 Automatic tub level control

The tub level system was designed to make the operators job easier. The operator presets the
desired tub level system before starting the job (normally, once the level has been set, it should
not need to be changed). The job should be started with the tub level system in manual operation.
Once the job has started and the tub level has reached close to the set point (desired level), then
the operator turns on the automatic tub level with the separate switch. The automatic tub level
can be switch back and forth between manual and automatic during the job. Normally it should be
left auto. When all the cement has been mixed, the tub level should be turned man so that the
remaining slurry in the tub can be pumped away without the system trying to add more water to
maintain the tub level.

12.5.4 Control function simulation

The controller can be placed in a simulation mode, which is useful for operator training and
system functional verification. This mode allows the operator to control the complete system as
if he were doing a cement job but without cement. This quality training is available for each
cementer without added expense. It will help insure that operators are qualified and confident in
operating the system for an actual job. In the training mode, the operator would circulate water
through the mixer without mixing cement. The operator can adjust the cement metering valve
manually or have the ACM system control it automatically. The controller reads the valve position
and calculates an assumed bulk flow based on a microprocessor stored curve.

The controller calculates the theoretical real-time density that would have been mixed in the tub
if cement had been used. This simulation takes into account the mix water flow (job throughput
rate), tub volume, water density, and dry bulk cement absolute density. The systems functional
verification works the same as when the controller is in the training mode. All lines, cables, flow
meter, hydraulic system, feedback system and controller are tested during the simulation.

The microprocessor is capable of recording a group of job data every 1 second and storing for
300hrs. All these data can be downloaded thru the computer network interface.
