Improved manufacturing techniques reduce leakage at threaded connections and prevent thread damage.
Divider Block Baseplates and Discharge Check Valve Threads
Redesigned pump assembly improves pump priming, reduces rolling resistance on the camshaft, prevents water intrusion into the lubricator box and minimizes connection leakage.
Force Feed Lubricator PumpPressure gauges
installed on each balance valve eases adjustment and maintenance on KBU:Z:B:V units.
Balance Valves
Redesigned with increased accuracy to avoid nuisance unit shut downs.
Rupture Discs
Improved design offers better performance and quicker priming. Reduction in size and weight minimizes the effects of vibration and keeps components out of the way.
