The drive shaft is configured to drive the piston arrangement, and the drive shaft includes a first eccentric. The piston arrangement has a first primary stage piston connected to a first sliding block guide slidably seated on the first eccentric. The first sliding block guide has a main axis, a minor axis, and an inner surface. A first sliding bush is arranged between the first eccentric and the first sliding block guide. The outer surface of the first sliding bush corresponds to the inner surface of the first sliding block guide. Translational movement of the first sliding bush relative to the first sliding block guide is allowed along the main axis and restricted along the minor axis.

A skid for supporting a reciprocating pump assembly, the reciprocating pump assembly including a power end frame assembly having a pair of end plate segments and a plurality of middle plate segments disposed between the end plate segments. The end plate segments each have at least a pair of feet and the middle plate segments each having at least one foot. The skid includes a base and a plurality of pads extending from the base. At least a portion of the plurality of pads correspond to the end plate segment feet and at least another portion of the plurality of pads correspond to the at least one foot of each middle plate segment.

Disclosed is a status monitoring and fault diagnosis system for a plunger pump, including a monitoring and fault diagnosis device. The monitoring and fault diagnosis device monitors and diagnoses a hydraulic end assembly of a plunger pump. The monitoring and fault diagnosis device further monitors and diagnoses a power end assembly and/or a reduction gearbox assembly. Beneficial effects: The diagnosis system monitors and diagnoses not only a hydraulic end assembly, but also a power end assembly and/or a reduction gearbox assembly, that is, an equipment fault can be accurately predetermined in time for an entire plunger pump, so that high-pressure, large-displacement, and continuous operation requirements on fracturing sites at present are better satisfied, and on-demand maintenance is adopted instead of regular examination and maintenance, thereby saving labor, time, and materials to achieve economic efficiency.

A position detection device determines the position of the diaphragm or the drive piston of an electric-motor-driven diaphragm pump, in particular, by detecting the upper and lower reversal point (Po, Pu) in the movement curve of the diaphragm of the diaphragm pump. A diaphragm is actuated by a drive connecting rod to close a conveying chamber with valves provided on an inlet and outlet side. The volume can be changed between a minimum and maximum volume. A rotational movement of an electric motor, with a rotor, is converted into the actuation movement of the drive connecting rod via the effect of the eccentrics. The position detection device detects the load curve of the diaphragm pump during the movement of the diaphragm. An evaluation device determines at least the position of the upper and lower reversal point of the diaphragm from the load curve.

A closing engine including a framework, fluid drivers, and a flow control device. The framework has an inlet that receives a fluid and an outlet that dispenses the fluid. The fluid drivers are supported by the framework and pump fluid toward the outlet. The flow control device is coupled to the framework and is in fluid communication with the inlet, the outlet, and the fluid drivers. The fluid drivers are cooperatively driven by a motive force from fluid flow through the inlet to dispense fluid via the outlet, and to drive the flow control device to distribute diluent to the diluent drivers in a coordinated manner.

The disclosure relates to a position detection device for determining the position of the diaphragm or the drive piston of an electric-motor-driven diaphragm pump, in particular detecting the upper and lower reversal point (Po, Pu) in the movement curve of the diaphragm of a diaphragm pump operated in an electric-motor-driven manner via eccentric means, wherein a diaphragm actuated by a drive connecting rod closes a conveying chamber with valve means provided on an inlet and outlet side such that the volume can be changed between a minimum and maximum volume, whereby a reciprocating movement of an electric motor having a rotor attached to a shaft is converted into an actuation movement of the drive connecting rod via the effect of the eccentric means, wherein the position detection device has detecting means for detecting the average value position of the rotor shaft, as well as an evaluation device in order to determine at least the position of the upper reversal point of the diaphragm from the average value position.
