Factors Affecting SST Switch 3D
Gun Life
The maintenance table should be used as a guideline
for the frequency of maintenance tasks. Additional
factors that could affect SST Switch 3D Gun life include
the following:
•
Material Fluid - Abrasive or fiber filled fluids are
much harder on seals, shafts, and seats than
non-abrasive fluids such as oil.
•
Pressure drop across the valve seat - As the
internal valves open or close, the fluid is accelerated
to a high velocity at the rod shutoff valve/seat
contact area. The rate of wear at the rod shutoff
valve/seat contact area will be much greater at 3000
psi than at 1000 psi. Changing the tip size to reduce
fluid velocity can have a substantial affect on wear.
•
Number of cycles - This has a much greater affect
on SST Switch 3D gun wear than number of
gallons. If you can do the same job with fewer on/off
cycles, the SST Switch 3D Gun will last longer.
•
Speed of actuation - Opening and closing the
internal valves quickly will increase rod shutoff valve
and seat life.
Recycling and Disposal
