1.1 Safety Precautions

Follow all safety precautions when you operate a QPA1000 pump.
Failure to do so could result in equipment damage, serious bodily harm
or even death.
1. Wear Personal Protective Equipment (PPE). Review the PPE manual

for specification son hard hat, goggles, gloves, steel-toed shoes, etc.
2. Flush the pump to remove any additives or other harmful chemicals

that could cause bodily harm if in contact with skin or clothing.
3. Carefully bleed pressure from the fluid end. Isolate the pump from
pressure and vent the pump to the atmosphere.
4. Turn off the prime mover (engine or electric motor).
SERVAgroup, LLC A08012970E__C_en 1
Service Manual
Volume 1 of 1
Never place your hands in the fluid end, the area between the fluid end
and the power or the input flange when the prime mover is on. Serious
injury could result.
5. Disengage the prime mover from the pump (put the transmission in
neutral) or lock the electric motor to prevent accidental start-up.
6. File smooth (or replace) any parts that have sharp or jagged edges.
7. Use a remote-operated choke to build pressure in the QPA1000

pump.
Never use a fully closed valve to bu8ild pressure in a positive

displacement pump. Sudden overpressure could result, causing serious
damage and/or bodily harm.
8. Use care when lifting or moving pump parts. Many of the parts are
heavy enough to cause injury if improperly handled. Lift pump parts
with assistance from additional personnel, or a hoist or other lifting
device.
9. If you turn the pump input shaft with a tool such as a pry bar or pipe
wrench, remove the tool from the shaft immediately after use.
Do not start the pump if there is a tool attached to the driveshaft.

Serious damage and/or injury could result.
10. Before starting the pump, make sure all discharge valves are open
and all protective guards are in place.
11. Never weld on a pressure-containing part such as a fluid end,

discharge flange, etc. without prior approval of appropriate personnel
and SERVAgroup Engineering.
Always avoid flames when using flammable liquids to wash the pump
parts.
1.2 QPA1000 Pump Description

The QPA1000 is a reciprocating, positive displacement, horizontal single-acting,
quintuplex plunger pump rated at 1000 Brake Horsepower input maximum. It is
designed for severe duty well service applications such as acidizing, cementing,
fracturing, well killing, gravel packing, etc.
2 SERVAgroup, LLC A08012970E__C_en
Service Manual
Volume 1 of 1
The QPA1000 Pump consists of a power end, speed reducer assembly and a
fluid end assembly. The speed reducer can install on either the right hand or left
hand side of the pump in any one of 16 different input shaft locations to
accommodate a number of different pumping unit drive train configurations.
Two different fluid cylinders are available to accommodate several plunger sizes
for a variety of pressures and volumes.
Optional packing assemblies, valve assemblies, discharge flanges, suction

manifolds, etc. are available for a variety of usage configurations, for pumping
various specific fluids and for service in a wide range of climates.
The weight of the pump will vary slightly, depending on plunger size and other
options but will not vary more than +/- 5% of the advertised weight.
You can use the QPA1000 pump to pump liquid medium into a well. The
QPA1000 pump is not rated for sour gas service such as hydrogen sulfide (H2S)
because it can make the iron brittle. This reduces the fluid suction and the ability
to sustain pressure.
QPA1000 pumps work well where ambient temperatures range from -30° C to
45° C. If the ambient temperature exceeds these limits, please contact the
SERVAgroup Engineering department.

1.3 Replacement Parts

SERVAgroup stocks an inventory of genuine “original equipment” replacement
parts for each of its pumps. In order to expedite a parts order and avoid any
delays, please provide the following information when you place an order.
1. The part number and description of each item ordered. (Refer to

drawings and parts lists in this document.)
2. The quantity of each part, kit or assembly ordered.
3. The model number and serial number of the pump (see identification
tags on the fluid and power ends.)
4. Your purchase order number.
5. Specify the method of shipment and complete shipping address,

complete billing address and telephone number for the destination of
the shipment.
1.4 Shipping and Storage

All pumps are shipped dry and must be flushed with diesel (or light) oil and filled
with the proper lubricant before operating (see section 2.0 Installation Details).
When shipping a pump by ocean cargo, crate the pump in a watertight container
and stow below deck to prevent salt water contamination.
New pumps are not prepared for long periods of storage and should be used as
soon as possible. To prepare a pump for storage after use, perform these steps.
1. Clean the fluid end and flush it with a good rust preventive and then
plug all fluid end discharge and suction openings.
2. Drain the oil from the power end and thoroughly clean and flush with
a good rust preventive that will not clog oil passages.
3. Remove the crankcase breather and plug all openings.
4. Coat the pinion extensions and pony rods with a heavy rust
preventive.
5. Store pump inside in a warm, dry location.
Service Manual
Volume 1 of 1
Pumps that are idle for any appreciable period of time (two weeks or more) must have
the plungers and valves removed, coated with a light lubricant and reinstalled prior to
operating. The elastomeric plunger packing and valve inserts will stick to the matching
metal parts and suffer damage upon start-up if not disassembled and lubricated first.
SERVAgroup recommends use of a forklift and crane to move the pump. The pictures
that follow illustrate both methods.

2.0 INSTALLATION DETAILS

2.1 Pump Installation Highlights
Install your QPA1000 well service pump properly to obtain long life and trouble
free service. Pay particular attention to the following.
2.1.1 Power Source
To avoid overpowering the pump, the prime mover (usually a 2100

RPM diesel engine) should be rated at no more than 725 BHP
intermittent service.
2.1.2 Drivetrain
The drivetrain that connects the pump to the engine should include a
transmission (5 speed or more) and a mechanical driveline with
universal joints and a slip joint to fully utilize the wide range of pressure
and flow capabilities.
The mechanical driveline should have a “Diesel Engine Use” torque

rating of approximately 1250 to 1700 ft. lbs. (6500 to 8900 ft. lbs. Short
Duration) and no less than 1” slip capacity.
Do not exceed the manufacturer’s recommendations for maximum

installed angle, maximum RPM, etc.
 A power shift transmission with integral torque converter and

automatic lock-up clutch provides the most trouble-free shifting
under pressure. If you must use a transmission with a manual
clutch, exercise extreme caution when clutching and shifting to
avoid introducing severe shock loads to the pump’s input shaft.
 If you use a transmission with a high gear or overdrive ratio greater

than 1.0:1, you must block out the overdrive gear range to avoid
running the pump too fast.
 If you use a transmission with a torque convertor and/or a low gear

ratio of 5.0:1 or lower, exercise extreme caution to avoid over-
pressuring the pump when operating in low gear or converter
mode.
Service Manual
Volume 1 of 1
2.1.3 Power End Mounting
Securely bolt all four (4) power end mounting hold locations to a skid or
vehicle. (Refer to pump installation drawings for mounting hold
locations.)
2.1.4 Power End Lubrication
QPA1000 pumps are shipped dry, do not include an integral oil pump,
and are designed for a pressure lubricated dry sump system. For
proper lubrication there must be an auxiliary oil reservoir and engine
driven oil pump used with the QPA1000. Additional information about
the power end lube system and oils is in section 3.0 Power End Lube
System Requirements.
2.1.5 Plunger Lubrication
The QPA1000 well service plunger pump requires a force fed oil
plunger lube system. The unit is internally and externally plumbed so
that the correct oil source provided by the customer will supply oil to all
appropriate surfaces.
2.1.6 Super-charging System
The QPA1000 requires a centrifugal slurry pump super-charging

system.

2.3 Start-up and Break-in Procedure

Each pump must undergo a brief but thorough start-up and break-in procedure to
verify the field worthiness of the pumping system and allow a gradual “breaking
in” of various mating parts in the pump itself. SERVAgroup recommends
adhering to the following guidelines to insure maximum service from the plunger
pump and minimize potential start-up problems.
2.3.1 Inspection Procedure

(prior to starting the engine, verify the following)
1. All masking tape, rust preventive and other material used for shipping
is absent from moving parts such as plungers, pinion shaft, etc.
2. The bolts attaching the plunger pump to the skid or truck frame are
secure.
3. The connection from the driveline to the plunger pump’s input shaft is
secure and adequate slip is present in the driveline’s slip joint.
4. The power end lube oil reservoir has the proper type of gear oil
added after flushing and draining.
5. The plunger lube oil reservoir has the proper type of rock drill oil
added after flushing and draining.
6. Piping connections on the super-charge piping system are tight after

completely flushing the system.
7. The power end lube system start-up adjustments and plunger lube
system start-up adjustments are complete.
8. The suction pulsation dampener is properly pre-charged.
9. There is an adequate supply of cool clean water for testing

connected to the primary suction piping.
10. The connection from the plunger pump’s discharge piping to the
water reservoir is secure. All connections are tight and all valves are
open.
Start the super-charge pump and flush all air from the system. Follow the engine
manufacturer’s recommendations for engine start-up and warm-up.
Service Manual
Volume 1 of 1
2.3.2 Warm-up Procedure (prior to rotating the plunger pump)
1. Operate the engine at idle and the transmission in neutral and check:
 the power end lube pump vacuum reading and
 the power end lube oil pressure and temperature.
If the lube pump vacuum reading is less than 10” Hg, gradually increase
the engine RPM to determine whether full engine RPM can be reached
without exceeding 10” Hg at the power end lube pump suction inlet.
2. Continue running the engine with the lube pump vacuum reading at
or below 10” Hg as necessary to warm and thin the power end lube
oil.
3. Do not rotate the plunger pump until you achieve full engine RPM
without exceeding 1V Hg at the lube pump suction inlet or until the
power end lube oil temperature reaches at least 60° F.
2.3.3 Plunger Pump Valve Seating Procedure
To protect the fluid cylinder from washing before sustained pumping,

pressure up and fully seat the tapered valve seats to create a positive
fluid seal.
1. Adjust the test choke for high pressure/low pump RPM.
Set the over pressure shutdown to prevent over pressuring during this
operation.
Shift the transmission to 1st gear and slowly increase the throttle setting
to achieve 85% of the pump’s maximum rated rod load for 2 - 3 minutes
or, until you hear a series of popping noises. The popping noises
indicate that the seats have properly set in the taper. The desired
pressure for each plunger size is in the following table.
Plunger Diameter (In.) 85% Rated Pressure

3 12,030 PSI
3½ 8,840 PSI
4 6,675 PSI
4½ 5,345 PSI
Service Manual

2. During this portion of the start-up procedure, closely observe the

plunger pump for any unusual noise, vibration, fluid leaks and oil
leaks. Record all pertinent information such as elapsed time, ambient
temperature, power end lube oil temperature, power end lube oil
pressure, super-charge pressure, etc. for future reference.
3. Return the engine to idle and the transmission to neutral and

physically inspect the plunger pump before proceeding.
2.3.4 Break-In Procedure
1. Adjust the test choke, engine, and transmission to obtain

approximately 35% rated rod load, 35% rated pump RPM, and 42%
rated horsepower. These settings should be approximately as
follows:

3.0 POWER END LUBE SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS

Providing a well-designed trouble-free power end lube system is one of the most
important factors in obtaining maximum service and long life from the QPA1000 well
service plunger pump. Due to the nature of well servicing operations, the highest pump
pressures and highest load conditions occur at very slow pump speeds. This
characteristic of well service pump operation necessitates an engine driven lube pump
to deliver maximum lube oil volume at high engine speeds regardless of slow pump
speeds.
The powered well service unit must have power end lube system components that are
compatible with the specific engine, transmission, etc. installed on the unit. A properly
designed power end lube system has the specifications listed in the sections which
follow..
QPA1000 PUMP
Service Manual
Volume 1 of 1
3.1 Oil Reservoir

 50 gallon minimum capacity
 2” minimum suction outlet, located as deep as possible
 3” minimum return fitting for back drain
 1” minimum return fitting for relief valve
 Dipstick or sight glass to indicate oil level in the reservoir
 Serviceable magnet located near the 3” return port (highly

recommended)
 40 micron 25CRM minimum breather filler cap with a built-in

strainer to prevent debris from entering the reservoir
 Located as close to the plunger pump as possible, preferably

directly underneath and below the lowest drain port in the plunger
pump
3.2 Lube Pump

 Pump is a gear type pump rated at 30 GPM minimum at its installed
maximum RPM.
 Inlet and outlet ports are as large as possible (11/2” inlet and 3/4”
outlet preferred). If the gear pump suction inlet port is less than
1 1/2”, use a swage connection on the suction port to maintain
a 2” suction line as close as possible to the gear pump.
 Liquid filled vacuum gauge (0 to 30” Hg) is installed as close to the
gear pump suction port as possible in order to monitor the suction
flow conditions, especially during cold startup in cold climates.
 The gear pump may be coupled directly to an accessory drive

location on the engine or to the transmission with a pump-mount
power take-off (PTO). The transmission PTO mount usually offers
the advantage of a lower mounting and improved suction
conditions.
In either case, the lube pump mounting must be a direct coupled

positive drive arrangement that operates at engine speed whenever the
plunger pump’s prime mover is running.
Service Manual
Volume 1 of 1
3.3 Lube System Pressure Lines and Oil Filter

 Pressure lines are 1” inner diameter minimum in order to maintain a
flow velocity of 10 to 12 ft. per second maximum.
 Pressure lines are wire reinforced with a minimum working

pressure of 800 PSI.
 Oil filter is rated at 50 GPM/200 PSI minimum, has a built-in 15 to

25 PSI relief valve and, 25 to 33 micron elements.
 Liquid filled 0 to 200 PSI oil pressure gauge is located at the 1/2”
NPT lube inlet on the plunger pump. (An auxiliary oil pressure
gauge is also highly recommended for those units having remote
control consoles.)
 When you connect the oil inlet, you must connect the three inlets to
the lube oil pipe. (See the drawings on the next page.)
Service Manual
Volume 1 of 1
Figure 1 ‐ Oil Inlet Connection
Figure 2 ‐ Lube Assembly, Power End
Service Manual
Volume 1 of 1
3.4 Lube System Suction Lines and Oil Filter

 Must be 2” inner diameter minimum throughout so the suction
velocity never exceeds 2 to 3 ft. per second.
 Must include a suction strainer with 2” minimum port size, 40 to 100

mesh (400-150 micron) wire cloth, 3002 inches minimum element
area, 3 to 5 PSI (6 to 10 Hg) built-in bypass and rated at 50 GPM
minimum flow rate.
An in-line canister type strainer makes cleaning easier during routine

maintenance.
 If the lube pump is located above the fluid level in the reservoir, you
can use a 1 1/2” minimum swing type check valve in the suction line.
 The suction line should be as short as possible, free from excessive

bends and wire reinforced to prevent collapsing.
If the suction line is longer than 10 feet, compensate for the resulting
suction losses by increasing the line size beyond the minimum 2” inner
diameter.
3.5 Lube System Relief Valve and Relief Return Line

 The system relief valve should be a 3/4” 20 to 25 GPM 60 PSI
minimum and 200 PSI maximum, adjustable non-chattering type
relief valve.
 The relief valve must be located at the plunger pump’s 1/2” NPT
lube port opposite the lube inlet to insure oil flow throughout the
plunger pump before reaching the relief valve.
 The relief return line should be 3/4” inner diameter minimum, wire
reinforced, rated at 800 PSI minimum operating pressure and
should return directly to the reservoir.
3.6 Lube Drain Lines (from Plunger Pump to Reservoir)

The QPA1000 pump is equipped with a 2” NPT drain port in the speed reducer
(gearbox) housing and a 3” NPT drain port in the bottom of the power end
housing.
Service Manual
Volume 1 of 1
 The drain lines should never be smaller than the drain port in the
power end speed reducer and should be as short as possible.
 Keep the drain lines free of excessive bends and kinks so they can
flow continuously downhill to the reservoir. If necessary, you can
connect the 2” drain line from the speed reducer into a common 3”
drain line with a ‘t-joint’ and return it to the reservoir. You should
always use the lowest 2” NPT drain port in the speed reducer for
the drain line in order to prevent the speed reducer from
accumulating excess oil.
 Install a 0° to 250° F oil temperature gauge in the primary drain line

such that its sensor is submerged in the return oil from the plunger
pump.
The temperature gauge should be located in a place easily accessible

for viewing. An auxiliary oil temperature gauge is highly recommended
for units with a remote control console.
3.7 Optional Lube System Equipment

 In extremely hot ambient conditions, an oil cooler may be required
to prevent excessive oil temperatures and inadequate oil viscosity.
When used, the oil cooler should be of the “air to oil” or “forced air” type
and should be located down-stream from the oil filter. The cooler should
be rated at 50 GPM/250PSI minimum, and should have 3/4” minimum
inlet and outlet connections. If the well service unit will be subjected to
periods of cold weather, the oil cooler must be plumbed in a manner
that will allow the oil to bypass the cooler when cold ambient conditions
occur.
 In extremely cold ambient conditions, the use of either an electric
sump heater or a “tube and shell” heat exchanger may be required
to prevent extremely poor lube suction conditions, lube pump
damage and plunger pump damage due to the lube oil becoming
too cold and viscous to flow properly.
When used, the electric sump heater should be installed near the
suction outlet in the oil reservoir and should be capable of heating the
oil to approximately 80° to 100° F over 8 to 12 hours. The sump heater
must be thermostat controlled to prevent overheating the oil.
Service Manual
Volume 1 of 1
When using a “tube and shell” type heat exchanger for lube oil heating
with engine jacket water, the heat exchanger should be rated at 50
GPM/250PSI minimum with 3/4” minimum inlet and outlet oil passage
connections. The heat exchanger must be plumbed in a manner that
will allow it to be easily bypassed in the event the power end lube oil
temperature starts to exceed 180° F.
Upon request, SERVAgroup can provide lube system components that

meet or exceed the specifications noted herein. Please contact the
SERVAgroup Engineering Department for any further information
pertaining to your specific pump lubrication requirements.
3.8 Recommended Power End Lube Oils

The proper grade of gear oil for adequate power end lubrication in various
climates is very important to obtain long life and trouble-free service. In all cases,
select gear oil that contains an “extreme pressure” (EP) additive, that meets or
exceeds U.S. Mil. Spec. Mil-L-2105B, and has a Timken Test rating no lower
than 45 lbs. Both automotive and industrial gear oils are acceptable lube oils for
various climates and ambient conditions, provided they meet these
specifications.
3.8.1 General Service Lube Oils
These oils are generally classified as ISO 320 (SAE 90) automotive
grade, recommended where ambient temperatures range from 20° F to
90° F. These oils have a pour point of approximately 0° F and a
viscosity rating of 85 SUS or more at 210° F. The plunger pump’s oil
temperature must not exceed 180° F when using one of these oils.
3.8.2 Extreme Cold Weather Lube Oils
Classification for these oils is generally ISO 150 (SAE 80) automotive
grade or AGMA #3EP industrial grade, recommended where ambient
temperatures range from -25° F to 70° F. These oils have a pour point
of approximately -25° F and a viscosity rating of 55 SUS at 210° F. The
plunger pump's oil temperature must not exceed 145° F when using
one of these oils.
Service Manual
Volume 1 of 1
3.8.3 Extreme Hot Weather Lube Oils
Classification for these oils is generally ISO 460 (SAE 140) automotive
grade or AGMA #7 EP industrial grade, recommended where ambient
temperatures range from 35° F to 110° F. These oils have a pour point
of approximately 20°F and a viscosity rating of 140 SUS at 210° F. The
plunger pump's oil temperature must not exceed 200° F when using
one of these oils.
3.8.4 Power End Lube System Operation Specifications
Power end lube system reading will vary considerably due to the
extreme viscosity changes in the gear oil as it warms and thins from a
cold startup until it reaches full operating temperature. For example,
ISO 320 (SAE 90) wt. gear oil is very viscous at room temperature,
about 200 mPa-s at 90° F, and creates high system pressures.
When the temperature rises it becomes much less viscous, about

35mPa-s at 160° F, and creates lower system pressure. This makes it
difficult to establish a firm set of system readings that would be highly
accurate for every system.
Any sudden vacuum, pressure or temperature deviation from normal,

especially any unusual noise, vibration or smoke indicates the need to
cease pumping operation and investigate the problem before power end
damage occurs.
Service Manual
Volume 1 of 1
Normally, if the pump is working at full horsepower and full torque the system
readings cannot exceed the temperatures and pressure measurements listed in
the following table.

FAILURE TO FOLLOW LUBRICATION REQUIREMENTS VOIDS THE WARRANTY
Service Manual
Volume 1 of 1
4.0 PLUNGER LUBE SYSTEM PUMP REQUIREMENTS

The QPA1000 pump design calls for packing lubrication with oil rather than grease. You
can expect exceptionally long packing life if proper lubrication is supplied to the plunger
packing lube port above each stuffing box. Achieve ample plunger and packing
lubrication with an inexpensive relatively trouble-free low-pressure air operated
“lubricant pump” type system.
Mechanically driven plunger lubricators are not recommended due to the well service
pump’s extreme variations in pump speeds. A properly designed packing lube system
meets the following specifications.
4.1 Oil Reservoir

 approximately 5-gallon capacity
 equipped with a sight glass or dipstick
 equipped with a breather/filler cap that has a built-in strainer to

prevent trash from entering the reservoir
4.2 In-Line Relief Valve

It is critical that an in-line relief valve be included in the circuit when plunger wiper
rings are used with the packing. Otherwise, excessive lube pressure will damage
the wiper.
 cracking pressure of 32 PSI
 equipped with a pressure gauge between the relief valve and

lubricant pump
 return line connected from the relief valve to the oil reservoir so that
vented oil will return to the oil reservoir
4.3 Flow Control Needle Valves

 1
/4" needle valve which can be locked at any given setting after
adjustment
 installed in each lubricant flow line that leads to the individual

packing lube ports in the plunger pump fluid cylinder
Service Manual
Volume 1 of 1
4.4 High Pressure Check Valves

 rated at or above the well service plunger pump's maximum
pressure rating
 installed in the packing lube port so that the direction of flow is into
the fluid cylinder
4.5 Recommended Plunger Lube Oils
Select the proper grade of plunger lube oil for adequate lubrication in various
climates to obtain long life and trouble-free service. In all cases, “rock drill” oil
should contain an "extreme pressure" (EP) additive, have a film strength of
300,000 PSI or more and a relatively low coefficient of static friction.
Choosing the right plunger lubricant is critical for good packing and plunger life
for all styles of packing. Failure to provide adequate or appropriate lube will
cause the packing to fail and damage the mating components.
SERVAgroup recommends using rock bit or way oil that meets the following
specifications:
Plunger Lube Oil Specifications
ISO Grade 32 68
CPS No. 232500 232511
AGMA Grade --- 2
API Gravity 21.4 25.6
Viscosity, Kinematics
cSt at 40° C 30.4 64.6
cSt at 100° C 4.9 7.3

SUS at 100° C 158 338
SUS at 210° C 42.7 50.8
Viscosity Index 74 61
Flash Point 170° C (338° F) 200° C (389° F)
Lubricants that fail to meet these specifications, and especially “used crankcase
oils” are unacceptable.
Start-up is a critical time for plunger packing. Lubrication should flow freely to the
plunger prior to stroking the pump. Although conditions vary, twenty (20) drops
per minute lube oil rate is the generally recommended rate.
Stroking dry plungers can cause the header ring and packing to tear and
fail.

It is difficult to assess wear and tear on a pump based solely on the hours operated due
to the variations in duty cycle and types of service. You may need to replace roller
bearings, rod bearings and gearing after approximately 3000 hours of use. These
components generally exhibit signs of extensive wear by spalling (or flaking), which
causes pitting or scoring on the working surfaces. A small amount of spalling is tolerable
on gear faces but any spalling on a bearing surface indicates replacement is needed as
soon as possible.
Although replacement of these major components is relatively expensive, failure of a

main bearing can quite often lead to serious crankshaft and/or power frame damage.
Close observation of the lube oil filters during routine maintenance generally reveals the
condition of roller bearings, gears and journal bearings. SERVAgroup recommends
pulling the inspection covers and observing the condition of the bearings and gears
every 500 hours.

discharge valve seats and suction valve seats.
6. Thoroughly clean and lightly hand polish the tapered valve seat bore
in the fluid with a 220 to 240-grit emery cloth prior to installing new
valve seats.
7. Always install a new O-ring seal when reinstalling a valve seat. Do

not use any type of grease, sealant, etc. The valve seat must be
dry. Install the valve seat by hand; install the valve in the valve seat
and use a heavy steel bar to hammer the valve seat into the taper.
8. Never use one manufacturer’s valve with another manufacturer’s

valve seat. Likewise, never use one manufacturer’s valve insert with
another manufacturer’s valve.
9. When you reinstall the suction valve stop, make sure it is

perpendicular to the plunger and securely seated in the groove in the
cylinder.

15. Use an aluminum bar and 10 lb. hammer to bump the plunger into
the packing while holding it as straight as possible with the packing
bore center line. Continue bumping the plunger through the packing
until the threaded bore approaches the crosshead stud. For solid
studded plungers, continue until the stud nears the crosshead
threads.
16. Carefully align the plunger and crosshead and gently bump the
plunger up against the crosshead.
17. Tighten the plunger to the crosshead with the plunger wrench to
achieve torque (250 – 350 ft. lbs.).
18. Use the packing nut wrench to tighten each packing nut as tight as
possible.
The packing nut will need retightening only once after reassembling and
running the pump under pressure for a few revolutions. After that, the
packing is completely self-adjusting.

7.6 Power End Repair Procedures

Due to the complexity of the task and the need for special tools and training,
SERVAgroup does not recommend complete disassembly of the QPA1000
power end or speed reducer in the field. If extensive power end repairs are
required, return the pump to a SERVAgroup facility where expert service can be
obtained on an expedited or emergency basis if needed.
When field repairs are required, they should be performed in a clean, well
equipped shop by a trained well service technician who follows these
procedures.
7.6.1 Remove and Disassemble the Speed Reducer
You can remove the QPA1000 speed reducer assembly from the power
end without disassembling the speed reducer, with a 1 1/16” wrench.
Use the wrench for the eight (8) 7/8” hex nuts that secure the speed
reducer to the power end.
SERVAgroup recommends removing the speed reducer intact if

possible. If speed reducer internal repairs are required, follow these
steps to inspect or replace the bull gear, pinion shaft or roller bearings.
1. Remove the unit's mechanical driveline from the pump's input shaft.
2. Disconnect the lubrication hoses from the speed reducer and remove
the speed reducer as a complete assembly from the power end. Lay
the speed reducer down on its mounting flange face with the input
shaft facing up.
3. Use a 11/2” wrench to remove the 1” cap screw that secures the
splined companion flange to the input shaft. Remove the companion
flange and inspect it for wear.
4. Use a 3/4” wrench to remove the eight (8) 1/2” cap screws that hold
the pinion seal retainer to the speed reducer housing.
5. Remove the pinion seal retainer and shims from the speed reducer.
6. Remove the oil seal from the retainer and scrape all old silicone
sealer from the retainer.
7. Use a punch and hammer to drive the five (5) 3/4” dowel pins from the
outer flange of the speed reducer housing.
Service Manual
Volume 1 of 1
8. Use a 3/4” wrench to remove the twenty-four (24) 1/2” cap screws,
nuts and washers that secure the speed reducer cover plate to the
housing.
9. Remove the eight (8) 1/2” cap screws that secure the bearing cover to
the speed reducer. Remove the bearing cover and shims and lift the
cover plate away.
10. Scrape all old silicone sealer from the speed reducer cover and from
the flange on the housing. Use a brass punch and hammer to drive
both bearing cups (outer races) from the cover plate and inspect
them for wear or damage.
11. Remove the bull gear from the pump and inspect the gear teeth and
both tapered roller bearing cones for wear and damage.
12. Remove the pinion shaft from the speed reducer and inspect both
tapered roller bearing cones for wear and damage.
If you need to remove the bearing cones from the shaft, carefully heat
them with an acetylene torch until they easily slip off. Avoid
overheating the shaft itself. Inspect the shaft for wear and damage to
the gear teeth, seal surface, and bearing journals.
13. Reassemble the speed reducer in the reverse order of the

disassembly.
14. Install new tapered roller bearing cones on the pinion shaft or bull
gear by pressing them on or by heating the cone assembly with one
of these methods.
• a temperature controlled heating plate
• a hot oil bath unit
• a hot air cabinet or induction heating unit
These methods can safely heat the bearings for installation but the
temperature must not exceed 250° F (121° C).
Service Manual
Volume 1 of 1
15. Install new tapered roller bearing cups in the housing by tapping
them into the housing with a soft metal bar or by pressing them into
the housing.
16. After reinstalling the bull gear and pinion shaft, you must establish
the proper bearing “pre-load” (0.000” to 0.003”) before you operate
the pump.
 Obtain end play readings with a dial indicator and remove the
appropriate thickness of bearing adjustment shims.
 Do not apply silicone liquid gasket material to the bearing retainers

until the bearing pre-load has been properly set.
 Avoid overheating and damaging the pinion oil seal when

reinstalling the pump driveline hub on the input shaft.
7.6.2 Remove the Crankshaft, Connecting Rods, and Crossheads
1. Remove the speed reducer assembly (see7.6.1 Fluid End Repair

Procedures Remove and Disassemble the Speed Reducer).
2. Remove the plunger and seal retainers (see 7.2 Change Plungers

Service Manual
Volume 1 of 1
When you reinstall the crosshead slides, avoid torquing the 5/8” cap
screws to more than 35 ft.-lbs. torque. Excessive torque can distort the
surface of the slide and cause crosshead misalignment.
Check the clearance between the top of the crosshead and top
crosshead slide with the feeler gauge from the side opening of the
power frame (not from the rear of the power frame). Clearance between
the top crosshead slide and the crosshead should be between 0.008-
0.012”. If this clearance is not present, remove the bottom slide and
insert appropriate shims between the slide and the power frame at both
the front and rear slide mounts.
When reinstalling the crankshaft, carefully shim the left hand fixed type
inner main bearing so that it has only 0.003" to 0.015” lateral
movement. Carefully shim the main bearing housing and speed reducer
also in order to maintain 0.015” to 0.100” lateral running clearance on
the two outer main bearings.
Torque all cap screws, nuts, etc. properly upon reassembly (see 8.0
Torque Table included in this manual).
