PUMP DESIGN

The GD 3000 pump uses three major
assemblies: power end, fluid end, and gear
reduction unit. The pump is designed with a
modular concept. Each assembly is a
module that can be assembled, handled,
installed, fixed, or transported separately
from the rest of the pump (See FIGURE 2-
1, page 9). The following is a brief
description of the essential design features
for each modular assembly.
