The suction cover is dimensioned to be accommodated within a bore well of a fluid cylinder in the pump. An annular seal is seated on the sealing interface proximate to the base flange of the suction cover.

Pressure pump balancing system

A system may include multiple strain gauges and multiple position sensors positioned on multiple pressure pumps. The strain gauges may measure strain in chambers of the pressure pumps. The position sensors may measure positions of rotating members of the pressure pumps. One or more computing devices may be communicatively couplable to the strain gauges and the position sensors to determine an adjustment to a flow rate of fluid through at least one pump using a strain measurement and a position measurement for the at least one pump such that a timing of changes in composition of the fluid delivered to into a first manifold at an input for the pressure pumps matches the timing of the changes in composition of the fluid delivered from a second manifold at an output for the pressure pumps.

FLUID END PLUG WITH BORE CLEARANCE

A closure for a fluid end having a middle sealing section which engages a seal. The sealing section either has a larger outer diameter than adjacent sections or contacts a bore with a smaller inner diameter than adjacent sections. In either case, the clearance formed on either side of the sealing section reduces friction and allows the closure to be rocked back and forth to insert and remove the closure from the fluid end bore.

Hydraulic Pump

A hydraulic pump includes a work port, a high-flow piston, multiple high-pressure pistons, and an unloading valve. The work port couples to a fluid supply line of a hydraulic tool. The high-flow piston supplies fluid along a first flow path to the work port. The high-pressure pistons supply fluid along a second flow path to the work port. The unloading valve is fluidly coupled to the first flow path and the second flow path, and actuatable between an open state and a closed state. The unloading valve is configured to (i) permit fluid to flow from the high-flow piston to the work port in the open state, (ii) inhibit fluid from flowing from the high-flow piston to the work port in the closed state, and (iii) actuate from the open state to the closed state when a pressure of the fluid in the second flow path exceeds a threshold pressure.
