A surge suppressor includes a boost mechanism configured to balance pressures between a working fluid and a process fluid. The boost mechanism includes a boost member that is acted on by a charge pressure of the working fluid. A shaft extends from the boost member to a pressure control member bounding the process fluid and acting on the process fluid. The boost member can have a larger effective area than the pressure control member to provide a pressure multiplication between the charge pressure and the process fluid pressure. In addition, pressure control valves are mounted to an air housing and actuated open by the boost mechanism. Actuating one of the pressure control valves open increases the charge pressure. Actuating the other pressure control valve open decreases the charge pressure.

A pump cassette is disclosed. The pump cassette includes a housing having at least one fluid inlet line and at least one fluid outlet line. The cassette also includes at least one reciprocating pressure displacement membrane pump within the housing. The pressure pump pumps a fluid from the fluid inlet line to the fluid outlet line. A hollow spike is also included on the housing as well as at least one metering pump. The metering pump is fluidly connected to the hollow spike on the housing and to a metering pump fluid line. The metering pump fluid line is fluidly connected to the fluid outlet line.

A fixture has a body that connects to a motor, the body having a bore. The body has a piston in the bore, separating the bore into a pressure chamber and a lubricant chamber in fluid communication with lubricant in the motor. A technician applies pressure to the pressure chamber, which causes the piston to increase pressure of the lubricant in the lubricant chamber and in the motor. The technician monitors a distance of movement of the piston, indicating a presence of residual air in the lubricant. If the movement meets a amount, the technician applies a vacuum to the lubricant chamber and bleeds out residual air from the lubricant in the motor.

A slim-type gas transportation device includes a slim-type gas pump and a slim-type valve structure. The slim-type valve structure includes a first thin plate, a valve frame, a valve plate and a second thin plate. The first thin plate has a hollow portion. The valve plate is disposed within an accommodation space of the valve frame. The valve plate includes a valve opening. The valve opening is not aligned with the hollow portion. The second thin plate includes a gas outlet surface, a pressure relief surface, a gas outlet groove, an outlet aperture, a pressure relief hole and a pressure relief trench. The outlet aperture is hollowed out from the gas outlet groove to the pressure relief surface and corresponding in position to the valve opening. The pressure relief hole is spaced apart from the gas outlet groove. The pressure relief trench is concavely formed from the pressure relief surface.

In order to enable efficient operation and reliable heat dissipation in a transmission, a pumping device (10) for lowering the internal pressure in a transmission (100) is equipped with a suction line (18), which leads from a suction point (20) on a connection side (14) to a discharge point (22) on a discharge side (16), a pump (24) for generating negative pressure at the suction point (20), a pump drive (26) for driving the pump (24), and an oil separator (28) connected upstream or downstream of the pump (24) in the suction line (18) that separates oil contained in the suction flow and returns it via a return line (30) to the connection side (14), and a check valve (34) connected downstream, preferably directly downstream, of the pump (24). A transmission (100) with such a pumping device (10), a use of a pumping device (10) and a method for reducing power losses in a transmission (100) are disclosed.
