Lubrication

High Pressure lubrication concepts and components used in natural gas compressors.

Failed Pump to Point

This video shows common breaks and issues that pump to point assemblies can have.

Clean Pump to Point

This video show basic operation and minor maintenance actions for a pump to point assembly

Bypass Tested Bad B

This video demonstrates the symptoms that occur with one type of piston bypass. The port that leaks the bypassed lube will indicate witch piston is bad.

Bypass Tested Bad C

This video demonstrates the results of a bypass test when a failure occurs in a piston. The port that leaks the bypassed lube will indicate witch piston is bad.

Bypass Tested Good

This video demonstrates how a bypass test of a divider block tests as good.

High Pressure Pump Operation

This video illustrates the operation of a high pressure lubricator pump which is commonly installed on  air or gas compressors worldwide. 

Pump Bypass Closeup

This video is a close up visual illustration of a pump that is bypassing oil into the lube box reservoir.

Pump Leak

This video illustrates a potential problem area with high pressure pumps where lubrication bypasses the pump due to wear or malfunction of the piston and cylinder.

Pump With SightGlass

This video demonstrates the lubrication path and compression stroke of a pump equipped with a sight glass.

XdBlock2D

This short video demonstrates the way a divider block operates. Piston movement is dependant on the position of the other pistons. The piston position opens or closes lubrication paths.
