Cementing Pump Overview In Oil & Gas Field
All current cementing pumps are of the reciprocating type, mostly with three plungers (triplex) and springloaded suction and discharge valves Figure 1. The transformation of the rotating motion of the input shaft into the reciprocating motion of the plungers is generally accomplished either by a system of a crankshaft and connecting rods or by a swashplate and connecting rods system. These pumps include an internal fixed-ratio speed reducer.
