2015/09/28 Pump Control (Output Flow) - Adjust (RENR3201-04)

SMCS - 3222 i00992307

Adjust the pump output flow if the flow test results differ greatly from the specifications.

Adjust the flow of the upper pump.

1. Loosen locknut (23).

2. Turning setscrew (24) clockwise will increase the output flow of the pump. Turning setscrew (24)
counterclockwise will decrease the output flow of the pump. A 1/4 turn of setscrew (24) will change
the output flow of the pump at the following pressures.

a. The pressure range of the first regulator spring is 17800 kPa (2600 psi) to 25500 kPa
(3700 psi). Output flow of the pump will change approximately 23 L/min (6.1 US gpm) if the
output flow is adjusted in this pressure range.

b. The pressure range of the second regulator spring is 25500 kPa (3700 psi) to 34300 kPa
(4950 psi). Output flow of the pump will change approximately 10 L/min (2.6 US gpm) if the
output flow is adjusted in this pressure range.

3. Tighten locknut (23) to a torque of 12 ± 3 N·m (9 ± 2 lb ft).

 4. Adjust the lower pump. Use locknut (25) and setscrew (26) instead of locknut (23) and setscrew
(24) to adjust the lower pump. Repeat Steps 1 through 3.

Adjustment of the Maximum Output Flow of the Pump

Adjust the maximum output flow of the upper pump.

1. Loosen locknut (27).

2. In order to adjust maximum output flow, turn setscrew (28). Turning setscrew (28) clockwise will
decrease the maximum output flow of the pump. Turning setscrew (28) counterclockwise will
increase the maximum output flow of the pump. When setscrew (28) is turned by 90 degrees, the
flow changes approximately 2 L/min (0.5 US gpm).

3. Tighten locknut (27) to a torque of 55 ± 10 N·m (41 ± 7 lb ft).

4. Adjust the maximum output flow of the lower pump. Use locknut (29) and setscrew (30) instead of
locknut (27) and setscrew (28). Repeat Steps 1 through 3.
