This is some of the equipment I repair on my 2nd job, which is at my company which I'm not attached to in my regular job due to the activation. I know it confuses me too

Various sealant pumps for an automotive plant. Weld bond, hemflange, etc. They go into 55 gal drums on the dual post rams. The pumps generate pressures on average of 55:1 ratios. (over 5000 psi)

They are just a mess to tear down and work on.

Jerry...do you wear a white jump suite and white gloves when you work?

I can identify a bunch of pressure regulators and valves in the pictures. Is the dark stuff heavy grease?

I had a boss that gave me a dual post ram job on my raise once

let me see what i can identify looks like a lot of brass fittings mated with stainless, boy are you asking for trouble there, I see a ball valve, or 2, some high pressure lines, no swagelock, stainless interesting

brass fittings are on the air side. some that look like brass on the fluid side of the pump are HP carbon steel. OK to mix with SST. Pumps are operated by air motors. Air controls control ram actuation up and down. some ball valves are used on the fluid side but most are on the air controls.

There is a Swagelok or two for the outlet tube fittings. Everything that should be HP is HP

They give us uniforms to trash Ox, all material is sealant of one type or another.

7mm, you know your plumbing, eh. Sorry to hear about that raise.
