Enerpac P-842 2 Speed Hand Pump with 4 Way Valve

The Enerpac P-842 high-pressure, lightweight two-speed hydraulic hand pump is for lifting, bolting, or applying pressure with a hydraulic cylinder (sold separately) in intermittent and non-repetitive construction, manufacturing, and maintenance and repair applications. It has a four-way control valve for advancing and retracting a double-acting cylinder. This two-speed hand pump requires fewer handle strokes to move a load than a similarly rated single-speed pump, increasing productivity. An internal pressure relief valve helps protect the pump from overload. The glass-filled nylon reservoir, nylon-covered aluminum base, and fiberglass handle provide corrosion resistance and are lighter than steel hydraulic hand pumps. The handle locks into place for secure transport. The pump has a 3/8" National Pipe Taper (NPT) threads port for connecting to a hose or gauge (sold separately).

H is height, the vertical distance from lowest to highest point; W is width, the horizontal distance from left to right; D is depth, the horizontal distance from back to front.

Hydraulic pumps lift, bolt, or apply pressure to objects by pressurizing and moving hydraulic fluid. A hydraulic pump consists of a base, a reservoir that holds hydraulic fluid, and an operating mechanism, such as a handle or foot pedal, an electric motor, compressed air, or a gasoline engine. When the operating mechanism is activated, pressurized hydraulic fluid from the reservoir is delivered through an attached hose to a hydraulic cylinder. The pressurized hydraulic fluid in the cylinder lifts the cylinder’s piston, which in turn lifts the load. Hydraulic hand pumps are usually made of steel, or aluminum and nylon, and can be single-speed or two-speed. They are used in a wide range of applications, such as construction, manufacturing, and maintenance and repair applications in both industrial and home settings.

Enerpac manufactures industrial hydraulic equipment for lifting, workholding, and other applications, and provides integrated lifting solutions for bridge construction, mining, shipbuilding, and other industries. The company, founded in 1959, is headquartered in Menominee Falls, WI.

ISO 13710:2004, Petroleum, petrochemical and natural gas industries - Reciprocating positive displacement pumps

ISO 13710:2004 specifies requirements for reciprocating positive-displacement pumps and pump units for use in the petroleum, petrochemical and natural gas industries. It is applicable to both direct-acting and power-frame types. ISO 13710:2004 is not applicable to controlled-volume pumps and rotary pumps.

Electrical Submersible Pumps Manual: Design, Operations, and Maintenance (Gulf Equipment Guides)

Ideal for removing large amounts of liquids from wells, Electrical Submersible Pumps (ESP) are perhaps the most versatile and profitable pieces of equipment in a petroleum company's arsenal. However, if not properly maintained and operated, they could quickly become an expensive nightmare. The first book devoted to the design, operation, maintenance, and care, Electrical Submersible Pumps Manual delivers the tools and applicable knowledge needed to optimize ESP performance while maximizing of run life and the optimization of production. 

The prefect companion for new engineers who need to develop and apply their skills more efficiently or experienced engineers who wish further develop their knowledge of best practice techniques, this manual covers basic electrical engineering, hydraulics and systems analysis before addressing pump components such as centrifugal pumps, motors, seals, separators, and cables. In addition, the author includes comprehensive sections on analysis and optimization, monitoring and trouble-shooting, and installation design and installation under special conditions. 

* Apply the best operating practices to optimise production.
* Track and troubleshoot problems such as gas, solids and corrosion.
*Prevent expensive failures such as cable burn and impeller cavitation .
* Design and analyze a system using up-to-date computer programs.
* Establish ESP analysis monitoring methods and strategies.
* Ensure optimum operator-vendor relationship for mutual benefits.

SAMPLE OF CUSTOMER REVIEW –

1) Worth the price - I am a mechanical engineer working in the oil and gas industry. For the last 4 years I have been looking for a book like this.

This is a true practical guide on how to design, troubleshoot and maintain an ESP for the oil and gas industry.

The Reciprocating Pump: Theory, Design, and Use

Taking account of the requirements of designers, manufacturers and users, this work covers most aspects of reciprocating pumps. This expanded edition includes new material on autofrettage of a liquid end. Charts, tables and conversions provide a comprehensive encyclopaedia of reciprocating pumps.

SAMPLE OF CUSTOMER REVIEW –

1) All in one little book - The author of this book is deceased but I have talked to his son in Frisco, TX and the company or it's successor is still a go to source in the oilfield industry for pump issues. There is not much else to learn on the subject in an office. The only thing further is hands on experience with one of the many builders or rebuilders of these very sensitive pumps.
