Notes:
(1) ANSI class designations are designations given to flanges to indicate the
manufacturing dimensions and maximum allowable non-shock working
pressure considering the material utilized and the operating temperature.
(2) “PN” means “pressure nominal” and the PN system of nominal pressure
class designation is contained in standards prepared by the International
Organization for Standardization (ISO). The numerical part of the
designation approximates the maximum cold working pressure rating in bars
(100 kPa).

Notes:
(1) “PN” means “pressure nominal” and the PN system of nominal pressure
class designation is contained in standards prepared by the International
Organization for Standardization (ISO). The numerical part of the
designation approximates the maximum cold working pressure rating in bars
(100 kPa).
(2) Pressure ratings are for temperatures up to and including 120˚C.

Notes:
(1) The out-of-roundness tolerance shall be the difference between the maximum and minimum inside diameters measured on any radial cross-section at the
end of the fitting. In addition, NPS 18 or larger elbows shall be not more than 3% out-of-round throughout their length.
(2) Where tolerances are given in per cent, the tolerance applies to the nominal diameter expressed in millimetres.
(3) For reducing tees, the run size shall be used to determine the tolerance of the centre-to-end dimension of the outlet.
(4) For reducers, the larger dimension shall be used to determine the length tolerance.
(5) All tolerances, except as noted, are in millimetres.

TABLE 9.1
Location of Test Samples and Frequency of Testing for Bends

Manufacturing procedure Test locations


Cold bends Outer radius, weld seam, tangent
Hot bends, lower than Grade 290 Outer radius, weld seam, tangent
Hot bends, Grade 290 or higher Outer radius, inner radius, weld seam
neutral axis, tangent

Notes:
(1) New sets of tests, as described in Clause 9.1.4, are required for changes in
grade, wall thickness, outside diameter, or heat number.
(2) Where a post-bend heat treatment is done, the bends represented by a set
of tests shall be
(a) heat treated in the same charge as the test samples; or
(b) heat treated in the same manner as the test samples; however, in one or
more furnaces that are surveyed at least annually, controlled within a range
of 30˚C, and equipped with recording sensors that are calibrated at least
quarterly.
(3) Testing of tangents is not required if a post-bend heat treatment is not
performed.
(4) Testing of weld seams is not required for welds made without the addition
of extraneous metal.

*The carbon equivalent shall be determined from the product analysis by


using the following formula:
Mn Si Cu Ni Cr + Mo + V + Nb
C.E. = C + F { 6 + 24 + 15 + 20 + 5
+ 5B }

where F is a compliance factor that is dependent on carbon content and is


given in Table 7.2.

Notes:
(1) The chemical requirements of this Table are not intended to represent the
composition of any heat of steel but to record the maximum permissible
amounts of individual elements.
(2) Niobium is also known as columbium.

BARLOW’S FORMULA

Barlow’s Formula is a safe, easy method for finding the relationship between
internal fluid pressure and stress in the pipe wall. The formula predicts
bursting pressures that have been found to be safely within the actual test
bursting pressures.

It is interesting to note that the formula uses the “outside diameter” of pipe
and is sometimes referred to as the “outside diameter formula.”

P=2XtXS
D
where:
P = internal units pressure, psi
S = unit stress, psi
D = outside diameter of pipe, in.
t = wall thickness, in.

Carbon Steel Tubing Data
Steel tubing is called out by outside diameter and wall thickness. For hydraulic
plumbing a low carbon seamless steel tubing should be used which can be bent and
flared without cracking. Order “hydraulic grade” tubing.
Pressure ratings in this table are based on a tubing with tensile strength of 55,000 PSI,
and were calculated by Barlow’s formula: P = 2t x S ÷ O, in which P = burst strength in
PSI, t = wall thickness, S = tensile strength in PSI, and O = outside diameter. This
formula may be used to calculate tubing sizes not listed. All dimensions in the table are
in inches.
For hydraulic plumbing, a safety factor of at least 6 should be used and ratings for
this factor are shown in the table. For pressure rating at other safety factors, take burst
PSI and divide by desired safety factor.

Stainless Steel Tubing Data
Stainless steel tubing is sometimes employed either to handle corrosive fluids or
higher pressures. If assembled with flare-type fittings, great care must be used not to
crack the tubing while flaring.
Pressure ratings are based on an ultimate strength of 75,000 PSI, typical of Types
302, 303, 304, 309, 310, 316, 321 and 416. Types 202 and 440C have 100,000 PSI while
Types 410 and 430 have only 60,000 PSI ultimate.
In hydraulic systems a safety factor of at least 6 should be used if there is likely to be
any shock in the system. To calculate working pressure at any safety factor, take burst
strength and divide by desired safety factor.
Pressure ratings were calculated by Barlow’s formula: P = 2t x S ÷ O, in which P is
burst pressure in PSI, t is wall thickness, S is ultimate strength of tube material in PSI, O
is tube O.D. All dimensions are in inches.

NOTES:
(1) Dimensions are in inches.

(2) To determine the face-to-face or end-to-end dimensions of valves having both flanges as
tabulated in this table, adjust the face-to-face (not the buttweld end-to-end) dimensions
shown for the valve type (gate, globe, etc), material, class, and size in Tables 1 to 7 by
the amount shown.

(3) For center-to-face or center-to-end dimensions of angle type valves, use one-half the
numerical adjustment shown herein.

(4) These face-to-face dimensions are listed in Tables 1 to 7. (See table of desired class.)

(5) For Class 150 and for Class 300 steel valves having flat faces, either the full thickness of
the flange or the thickness with the 0.06 in. raised face removed may be supplied unless
otherwise specified. For full thickness of flange, the face-to-face dimensions listed for
0.06 in. raised face apply. Users are reminded that removing the 0.06 in. raised faces will
make the face-to-face dimensions nonstandard.

(6) These face-to-face dimensions are those listed for 0.25 in. raised face in Tables 3 to 7.

(7) When used for Class 800 cast iron, applies to large face only.

(8) The X dimensions given in Table 11 added to the appropriate raised face flange face-to-
face dimensions of Tables 1 to 7 establish the end-to-end dimensions of steel valves
having flanges with ring joint facings.

GENERAL NOTE: Dimensions are in inches.

NOTES:
(1) The installed face-to-face dimension is the dimension of the valve face-to-face after
installation in the pipeline. It does not include the thickness of gaskets where separate
gaskets are used. It does include the compressed (installed) thickness of gaskets or seals
that are an integral part of the valve.

(2) These butterfly valves are of the design generally having concentric location of disc and
seat, covered by MSS SP-67, from which these data are extracted.

(3) These valves are dimensionally compatible with flanges conforming to ASME/ANSI B
16. 1 Class 25 or Class 125, ASME/ANSI B 16.5 Class 150, ASME B 16.24 Class 150,
ASME/ANSI B16.42 Class 150, or AWWA C-207.

(4) For these butterfly valves, a tolerance of ±0.06 in. shall be allowed on face-to-face
dimensions of valves of NPS 6 and smaller, and a tolerance of ±0.13 in. on NPS 8 and
larger, except that for single flange and flangeless valves of NPS 30 and a larger, a
tolerance of ±0.25 in. shall be allowed.

(5) For these valves, a tolerance of ±0.13 in. shall be allowed on the face-to-face dimensions
for all sizes and pressure classes.

(6) The data for offset seat valves, columns 7–9, are extracted from MSS SP-68 and API 609
(except 16" - 24" Class 600, which are only in MSS SP-68).

INTERCHANGE BETWEEN UNITS
International Metric - Old Metric - U.S. Customary Units
These charts will interchange values between the SI International Standard, the U.S.
or English system, and the older metric systems. The left column of each chart shows
the basic unit in the SI system.
Equivalent values of all units are shown on the same line. The easiest way to use the
charts is to look down the column of the unit which is to be converted and find the line
on which the figure “1” appears. Then move to the left or right on the same line to the
column of the new unit. The value shown is a multiplier to convert to the new unit.
Conversions can be easily made with a pocket calculator which has an exponent key
or can be made manually.
For manual calculations remember that the + or - sign in front of an exponent tells
whether to move the decimal point to the right (for a + sign) or to the left (for a - sign)
and how far to move it. Examples: 2.540 X 10-5 is .0000254, and 3.048 X 102 = 304.8,
etc. Conversion examples are:
Convert 627 inches into centimetres. In the LENGTH chart, look down the Inch
column to the figure “1”. Then move left on this line to the Centimetre column. Use the
conversion multiplier 2.540: 627 x 2.540 = 1592.58 centimetres = 15.93 metres =
15,925.8 millimetres.
Convert 5000 PSI (pounds/sq. inch) into bars. Use the UNIT PRESSURE chart on
the next page. Look down the Pounds/inch2 column to the figure 1. Then move left on
the same line to the Bar column. The figure .06897 is a multiplier. Multiply 5000 x
.06897 = 344.85 bars.
Most western countries have abandoned the older metric systems in favor of the
new SI metric system. The USA is the only major country which has not officially
adopted the SI system of units.

FLOW CONVERSION CHART
The accompanying chart provides fast answers to many problems
that may confront the pipe fitter. Procedures for using the chart are
as follows:

Note that there are three sets of figures shown in connection with
the extreme left-hand column A. The column marked “1 in.
standard” gives the internal diameter of standard pipe (somewhat
greater than 1 for 1 in. standard pipe). The column marked “2
exact” gives the exact diameter. The column marked “3 extra heavy”
gives the internal diameter of extra heavy pipe.

EXAMPLE: How much water is passing through a pipe having an


I.D. of exactly 1 in. the velocity of the water being 3 F.P.S.? To
apply the chart to the problem locate 1 in. in column A over the
word “exact” and run a straight line from the point through the 3
in column C. From the intersection of this line with column B, run
a straight line horizontally to column G. The intersection of this
line at columns D, E and F gives the following information:

Column D shows the cubic feet/minute flowing through the pipe;


column E shows the volume of flow in gallons/minute; column F
gives the weight of the water in pounds/minute. (For liquids other
than water, multiply the value of column F by the specific gravity
of the liquid for accurate weight conversion). See chart page 31.

If a quantity in columns D, E or F is known then velocity may be


determined by reversing the procedure. Draw a horizontal line
from the known point to column G. From this intersection draw a
line to the exact I.D. of the pipe in column A and extend this line to
cross column C. The intersection with column C gives the velocity
in feet/second.

The chart can be used as a conversion chart to determine the


number of gallons in a certain number of cubic feet of liquid. The
horizontal line already drawn to determine answers in columns C
and D will provide the answer to the conversion in column E.

A little practice will prove this chart to be a real time-saver.

the allowable torque, rather than the next higher grade.
- 1" Rods (Grade 78 & 75) with 7/8" connections have the same torque
rating as conventional 1" rods.
- No derating factor for slimhole couplings.
- Values based on actual torsion test results.

Maximum Recommended Weight
Indicator Pull on a Sucker Rod String

The following calculates the maximum rig weight indicator pull on a stuck
rod string. The calculations are based on 90% of the minimum yield strength,
converted into pounds, for a rod string in “like new” condition. The
maximum load should be reached by a straight, steady pull and not a shock
load.
For a tapered string, calculate the total weight in pounds of all rods above the
bottom section. Add to this weight the values in the table below for the rod
type and size of the bottom section. This is the maximum load that should be
pulled on a rod string, the table values are the maximum pull.

ALIGNMENT OF PIPE
Proper alignment is important if a piping system is to be correctly fabricated.
Poor alignment may result in welding difficulties and a system that does not
function properly.

Welding rings may be employed to assure proper alignment as well as the


correct welding gap. In addition to using welding rings, some simple proce-
dures can be followed to assist the pipe fitter. Below and on the following page
are alignment procedures commonly used by today’s craftsmen.

PIPE-TO-PIPE
1 Level one length of pipe using
spirit level
2 Bring lengths together leaving
only small welding gap
3 Place spirit level over both
pipes as shown and maneuver
unpositioned length until both
are level
4 Tack weld top and bottom
5 Rotate pipe 90°
6 Repeat procedure

45° ELBOW-TO-PIPE
1 Level pipe using spirit level
2 Place fitting to pipe leaving
small welding gap
3 Place 45° spirit level on face of
elbow and maneuver elbow
until bubble is centered
4 Tack weld in place

90° ELBOW-TO-PIPE
1 Level pipe using spirit level
2 Place fitting to pipe leaving
small welding gap
3 Place spirit level on face of
elbow and maneuver elbow
until level
4 Tack weld in place
103
TEE-TO-PIPE
1 Level pipe using spirit level
2 Place tee to pipe leaving small
welding gap
3 Place spirit level on face of tee
and maneuver tee until level
4 Tack weld in place

FLANGE-TO-PIPE
1 Bring flange to pipe end
leaving small welding gap
2 Align top two holes of flange
with spirit level
3 Tack weld in place
4 Center square on face of flange
as shown
5 Tack weld in place
6 Check sides in same way

JIG FOR SMALL


DIAMETER PIPING
The jig is made from channel iron
3' 9" long. Use 1/8" x 1 1/2" for
pipe sizes 1 1/4" thru 3"; 1 1/8" x
3/4" for sizes 1" or smaller.

1 Cut out 90° notches about 9"


from end.
2 Heat bottom of notch with torch
3 Bend channel iron to 90° angle
and weld sides
4 Place elbow in jig and saw half
thru sides of channel iron as
shown. Repeat this step with
several elbows so jig may be
used for different operations.
5 A used hack saw blade placed
in notch as shown will provide
proper welding gap.

WIRE SELECTION GUIDE
Two important considerations in choosing the conductor size for electric wiring are:
(1), the safe current carrying capacity, and (2), the voltage loss due to wire resistance. On
short runs, say up to 20 feet, voltage loss is very low and need not be considered. Wire
size should be selected for its current capacity as shown in Chart 1.
On longer runs, several hundred feet or more, the voltage loss may be too high if wire
size is selected solely on the basis of current capacity. A larger wire size should be used
to keep voltage loss to a selected minimum. Chart 2 may be used for this.

PERMISSIBLE VOLTAGE LOSS ...


There is always a voltage loss on any wiring run. The designer must decide on how
much loss can be tolerated without seriously affecting performance, and must select a
wire size in which this loss will not be exceeded. A rule-of-thumb suggests that electric
motors should not be run on a voltage less than about 10% of their nameplate rating. In
deciding on allowable voltage loss in the wiring, a designer must consider the minimum
available power line voltage which may occur at a certain time of the day. For example,
a 230-volt rated motor should not be run on less than 208 volts (which is 10% less than
nameplate voltage rating). If the lowest power line voltage is 220 volts, then the wiring
should not have more than 12 volts loss.
A rule that works in most cases is to choose a wire size which does not give more
than a 5% loss of input voltage.
CHART 1 - WIRE AMPACITY FOR SHORT WIRING RUNS
“Ampacity” is an abbreviation for ampere capacity. This chart is for short wiring runs
of less than 20 feet. Ampere capacity is taken from the NEC (National Electrical Code)
on wire sizes of No. 14 and larger. It is for insulated copper wire of the kind that is
widely used for house and building wiring. A larger ampere capacity is allowed on wire
with certain types of insulation when used under certain conditions, but the NEC
handbook should be consulted.

CHART 2 - VOLTAGE LOSS ON LONG WIRING RUNS


This chart is for long wiring runs of several hundred feet or more. To use the chart,
several facts must be established: (1), the current draw of the device to be operated must
be determined; (2), the amount of voltage loss that can be tolerated must be decided on;
(3), the length of wire must be estimated or measured, using the sum of outgoing and
return wire lengths.
On 3-phase devices such as electric motors, each of the three wires must carry the
current shown on the motor nameplate. Wire length is the sum of two (not all three)
connecting wires.
Reading across the top of the chart to find the column which matches the amperage
rating of the device. Figures in this column show voltage losses for 1000 feet of wire
outgoing plus return. If for example, your total wire length was 250 feet, voltage losses
would be 1/4th that shown in the chart.

Full load current and suggested wiring and fuse sizes for standard 3-phase squirrel
cage induction motors, 60 Hz., normal torque, Class B insulation, 1.15 service
factor.
Current values shown in this chart are average values compiled from data published by several
motor manufacturers. They could be high or low for a specific motor. For selection of heater coils for
magnetic motor starters the selection should be made on the basis of the current rating on the motor
nameplate rather than from this table.
Wire sizes and fuse sizes are listed for reference only, and may vary with type of insulation, number
of conductors in a cable, etc. For new design, requirements of the NEC (National Electrical Code)
should be followed. In some cases it may be necessary to use delayed action fuses to properly protect
the wiring, and yet to avoid fuse blowing while motor is starting.

WIRE ROPE
Wire rope has largely displaced manila rope in hauling and
hoisting heavy loads. As with manila rope, the care of wire
rope has a direct bearing on its safe use.
Some of the reasons responsible for the use of wire rope in
place of manila are:

1. Greater strength for equal diameter and weight.


2. Equal strength either wet or dry.
3. Constant length regardless of weather conditions.
4. Greater uniformity in strength throughout.
5. Greater number of types for various uses.
6. Lower cost per unit of strength.
7. Greater durability, with equal care in use.

Strength of wire ropes vary, depending on the material from


which the individual strands are made and the method used in
forming the cable, ranging between 30 and 100 tons per
square inch.
Primarily there are 3 classes of wire rope: (1) iron, (2) cast
steel, and (3) plow steel.
Iron wire is soft and of low tensile strength, around 30 to 40
tons per square inch. Commonly used for drum type elevator
cables and to some extend for derrick guys; being replaced by
low-carbon steel wire in these uses.
Cast steel may have a tensile strength up to 90 tons per
square inch and because of its greater strength is generally
used for hoisting purposes. To check quickly whether a piece
of wire is iron or cast steel, bend it. Iron will bend easily and
take a long time to regain its original shape, while cast steel
will be harder to bend and will snap back to its original shape
very quickly.

128
Plow steel wire rope is made from high grade, open hearth
furnace steel and has an average tensile strength of 110 tons
per square inch. This is the best and safest wire rope for
cranes, derricks, dredges and slings or straps for heavy loads.

Lubrication – Wire Rope

All wire rope, whether used indoor or out, should in the


course of regular work be considered as a group of moving
wires constantly rubbing against one another, with friction
resulting. This friction causes incessant wear on the moving
parts of the wire rope or cable and will shorten its life very
rapidly unless lubricants are used to overcome the friction.
Cable or wire rope should be treated at regular intervals
with a lubricant to prevent rusting and to overcome the
friction. Lubricating intervals will depend on the types and
amount of work encountered. Under average conditions, if
worked steadily on equipment, wire rope or cable will require
lubrication once every 3 weeks. Where heavy abrasive dust
exist, more frequent lubrication is in order. Rusty ropes may
break without warning.

Sheaves

The life of wire rope or cable is directly affected by the


condition and size of the sheaves over which it is used.
Sheaves should be at least 16 x the diameter of the rope or
cable that is used over them. In passing over a sheave, the
inside portion of the cable, which is against the sheave, is
shortened and compression is developed in that section of the
cable. The outside portion (away from the sheave) is
lengthened or stretched, causing tension in that section. These
compressive and tensional stresses combine to create bending

129
stresses which increase rapidly as the diameter of the sheaves
decrease. As these bending stresses cause much undue wear
and directly shorten the safe working life of the rope or cable,
the ratio mention between sheaves and rope should be
maintained.
New wire rope may be badly injured and will not work
properly in sheaves that have become worn or in which the
grooves have become irregular in shape. When sheaves are
worn or damaged, it is more economical to renew the sheaves
rather than to allow excessive wear on the cable.
One cause of very severe wear in wire rope or cables is
reverse bending, which will shorten the life of the rope by
approximately 1/2. Reverse bending refers to the bending of a
cable or rope over sheaves, first in one direction then in
another.
Another cause of severe rope wear is twisting of the fall
rope. When the fall rope is twisted and a hoist is made, the
wear produced is equal to more than that resulting from weeks
of normal use. The man in charge of lifting operations should
guard against twisting of the fall rope and should not allow a
lift to be made if the fall rope is twisted.

Handling Cable or Wire Rope

Cable or wire rope cannot and must not be coiled or


uncoiled like manila rope. Cable or wire rope must be taken
off the reel in a straight line, avoiding kinking. The reel may
be mounted on a heavy pipe or roller facilitate unwinding. If
space is limited, the cable as it comes off the reel may be
layed out in a figure 8, after which it can be reeved into the
line for which it is intended.

130
Clamp Fastenings
When it is necessary to make a short bend, as in attaching wire rope or
when it is to be looped, thimbles should always be used. U BOLTS OF ALL
CLAMPS MUST BE ON THE DEAD END OF THE ROPE. In clamping a
strap or an eye, the loose or “dead” end is clamped against the main part of
the rope, with the clamps spaced apart a distance equal to 6 x diameter of the
rope. Clamp fastenings seldom develop more that 4/5 of rope strength at best.
The point of greatest fatigue and/or wear in a rope usually develops at or
near the end where it is clamped around the boom or where attached to the
becket on the block. Clamps should be inspected at least once weekly and
tightened if they show signs of loosening. All clamped or spliced fastenings,
especially those on cranes or derricks, should be shifted and changed at least
once every six months.

132
HYDRAULIC TROUBLESHOOTING
Many of the failures in a hydraulic system show similar symptoms: a gradual or
sudden loss of high pressure, resulting in loss of power or speed in the cylinders. In fact,
the cylinders may stall under light loads or may not move at all. Often the loss of power
is accompanied by an increase in pump noise, especially as the pump tries to build up
pressure.
Any major component - pump, relief valve, directional valve, or cylinder could be at
fault. In a sophisticated system other components could also be at fault, but this would
require the services of an experienced technician.
By following an organized step-by-step testing procedure in the order given here, the
problem can be traced to a general area, then if necessary, each component in that area
can be tested or replaced.

STEP 1 - PUMP SUCTION STRAINER ...


Probably the field trouble encountered most often is cavitation of the hydraulic pump
inlet caused by restriction due to a dirt build-up on the suction strainer. This can happen
on a new as well as on an older system. It produces the symptoms described above:
increased pump noise, loss of high pressure and/or speed.
If the strainer is not located in the pump suction line it will be found immersed below
the oil level in the reservoir, as at Point A. Some operators of hydraulic equipment never
give the equipment any attention or maintenance until it fails. Under these conditions,
sooner or later, the suction strainer will probably become sufficiently restricted to cause
a breakdown of the whole system and damage to the pump.
The suction strainer should be removed for inspection and should be cleaned before
re-installation. Wire mesh strainers can best be cleaned with an air hose, blowing from
inside out. They can also be washed in a solvent which is compatible with the reservoir
fluid. Kerosene may be used for strainers operating in petroleum base hydraulic oil. Do
not use gasoline or other explosive or flammable solvents. The strainer should be
cleaned even though it may not appear to be dirty. Some clogging materials cannot be
seen except by close inspection. If there are holes in the mesh or if there is mechanical
damage, the strainer should be replaced.
When re-installing the strainer, inspect all joints, as at Point B for possible air leaks,
particularly at union joints. There must be no air leaks in the suction line. Check the
reservoir oil level to be sure it covers the top of the strainer by at least 3" at minimum oil
level, which is with all cylinders extended. If it does not cover to this depth there is
danger of a vortex forming which may allow air to enter the system when the pump is
running.
STEP 2 - PUMP AND RELIEF VALVE ...
If cleaning the pump suction strainer does not correct the trouble, isolate the pump
and relief valve from the rest of the circuit by disconnecting at Point E so that only the
pump, relief valve, and pressure gauge remain in the pump circuit. Cap or plug both ends
of the plumbing which was disconnected. The pump is now deadheaded into the relief
valve. Start the pump and watch for pressure build-up on the gauge while tightening the
adjustment on the relief valve. If full pressure can be developed, obviously the pump and
relief valve are operating correctly, and the trouble is to be found further down the line.
If full pressure cannot be developed in this test, continue with Step 3.

133
STEP 3 - PUMP OR RELIEF VALVE? ...
If high pressure cannot be obtained in Step 2 by running the pump against the relief valve,
further testing must be conducted to see whether the fault lies in the pump or in the relief
valve. Proceed as follows:
If possible, disconnect the reservoir return line from the relief valve at Point H. Attach a
short length of hose to relief valve outlet. Hold the open end of this hose over the reservoir
filler opening so the rate of oil flow can be observed. Start the pump and run the relief valve
adjustment up and down while observing the flow through the hose. If the pump is bad, there
will probably be a full stream of oil when the relief adjustment is backed off, but this flow
will diminish or stop as the adjustment is increased. If a flowmeter is available the flow can
be measured and compared with the pump catalog rating.
If a flowmeter is not available the rate of flow on small pumps can be measured by
discharging the hose into a bucket while timing with the sweep hand on a watch. For
example, if a volume of 10 gallons is collected in 15 seconds, the pumping rate is 40 GPM,
etc.
If the gauge pressure does not rise above a low value, say 100 PSI, and if the volume of
flow does not substantially decrease as the relief valve adjustment is tightened, the relief
valve is probably at fault, and should be cleaned or replaced as instructed in Step 5.
If the oil flow substantially decreases as the relief valve adjustment is tightened, and if
only a low or moderate pressure can be developed, this indicates trouble in the pump.
Proceed to Step 4.
STEP 4 - PUMP ...
If a full stream of oil is not obtained in Step 3, or if the stream diminishes as the relief
valve adjustment is tightened, the pump is probably at fault. Assuming that the suction
strainer has already been cleaned and the inlet plumbing has been examined for air leaks, as
in Step 1, the oil is slipping across the pumping elements inside the pump. This can mean a
worn-out pump, or too high an oil temperature. High slippage in the pump will cause the
pump to run considerably hotter than the oil reservoir temperature. In normal operation, with
a good pump, the pump case will probably run about 20˚F above the reservoir temperature. If
greater than this, excess slippage, caused by wear, may be the cause.
Check also for slipping belts, sheared shaft pin or key, broken shaft, broken coupling, or
loosened set screw.

STEP 5 - RELIEF VALVE ...


If the test of Step 3 has indicated the trouble to be in the relief valve, , the quickest remedy
is to replace the valve with another one known to be good. The faulty valve may later be
disassembled for inspection and cleaning. Pilot-operated relief valves have small orifices
which may be blocked with accumulations of dirt. Blow out all passages with an air hose and
run a small wire through orifices. Check also for free movement of the spool. In a relief valve
with the pipe thread connections in the body, the spool may bind if pipe fittings are over-
tightened. If possible, test the spool for bind before unscrewing threaded connections from
the body, or, screw in fittings tightly during inspection of the valve.
STEP 6 - CYLINDER ...
If the pump will deliver full pressure when operating across the relief valve in Step 2, both
pump and relief valve can be considered good, and the trouble is further downstream. The
cylinder should be tested first for worn out or defective packings by the method described on
Page ???.

STEP 7 - DIRECTIONAL CONTROL VALVE ...


If the cylinder has been tested (Step 6) and found to have reasonably tight piston seals, the
4-way valve should be checked next. Although it does not often happen, an excessively worn
valve spool can slip enough oil to prevent build-up of maximum pressure. Symptoms of this
condition are a loss of cylinder speed together with difficulty in building up to full pressure
even with the relief valve adjusted to a high setting. This condition would be more likely to
occur with high pressure pumps of low volume output, and would develop gradually over a
long period of time. Four-way valves may be tested by the method described on the next
page.

OTHER COMPONENTS ...


Check other components such as by-pass flow controls, hydraulic motors, etc. Solenoid 4-
way valves of the pilot operated type with tandem or open center spools may not have
sufficient pilot pressure to shift the spool.

USEFUL DEFINITIONS

ALLOY STEEL: A steel which owes its distinctive properties to


elements other than carbon.

AREA OF A CIRCLE: The measurement of the surface within a


circle. To find the area of a circle, multiply the product of the
radius times the radius by Pi (3.142). Commonly written A =
πr2.

BRAZE WELD OR BRAZING: A process of joining metals using a


nonferrous filler metal or alloy, the melting point of which is
higher than 800°F but lower than that of the metals to be
joined.

BUTT WELD: A circumferential weld in pipe fusing the abutting


pipe walls completely from inside wall to outside wall.

CARBON STEEL: A steel which owes its distinctive properties


chiefly to the various percentages of carbon (as distinguished
from the other elements) which it contains.

CIRCUMFERENCE OF A CIRCLE : The measurement around the


perimeter of a circle. To find the circumference, multiply Pi
(3.142) by the diameter. (Commonly written as πd).

COEFFICIENT OF EXPANSION: A number indicating the degree of

The coefficient of expansion is not constant and varies with


changes in temperature. For linear expansion it is expressed as
the change in length of one unit of length of a substance
having one degree rise in temperature.
CORROSION: The gradual destruction or alteration of a metal or
alloy caused by direct chemical attack or by electrochemical
reaction.

CREEP :The plastic flow of pipe within a system; the


permanent set in metal caused by stresses at high
temperatures. Generally associated with a time rate of
deformation.

137
USEFUL DEFINITIONS
