3. TEST CONDITIONS AND PROCEDURES

3.1 Test conditions
Test Plans for DPG pumps will use EURO test conditions (using the same conditions as DP200
EURO) and will be listed under the heading ‘DPA EURO PUMPS’. They will also include an
overcheck procedure.

There are two test plans for each pump despatch number, one for mechanical governor
operation and the other for electronic governor operation.

e.g. Mechanical: Test Plan number 3230560

Electronic: Test Plan number 3230560EG

If a DPG pump is received in service, first determine whether it is set for mechanical governor
operation or has been converted for use with an electronic governor (EG).

Mechanical governor operation: The governor cover will have a plug in the actuator hole (435
fig. 2).

EG operation: Pumps may be received with the EG device fitted or removed (i.e. actuator hole
unplugged). The overspeed protection screw (440 fig. 2) will be removed and the hole plugged.

3.2 Test procedures

Mechanical governor operation:
Use the applicable non EG version test plan.
Check the pump to the overcheck test plan (return pump to customer if no fault found).
Rectify any fault found.
Reset pump to the main test plan.

EG operation:
Remove the EG device (if fitted)
Fit a plug in the actuator hole
Use the applicable EG version test plan
Check the pump to the overcheck test plan (return pump to customer if no fault found).
Rectify any fault found.
Reset pump to the main test plan.
Remove the plug from the actuator hole and refit the EG device (if originally fitted) as
described in 3.3.

Note: All DPG pumps supplied in service will be set for mechanical governor operation.
If a replacement pump is required for a pump with an EG device, it must first be
reset to the EG test plan, then the overspeed protection screw and locknut
removed and the hole plugged before re-fitting the original EG device (plug part
number 7182-569A, washer part number 7022-180S).

If the EG device was previously removed by the customer (i.e. original pump
received with the actuator hole unplugged) there are two options:

- Return the replacement pump advising the customer to reset the pump in
accordance with the electronic conversion procedure.
SIN 509 – Mar 02 - 8 of 9

- At the request of the customer reset the pump to the EG test plan before
returning the pump.

3.3 Preparing and fitting the actuator

Lubricate the o-ring on the actuator spigot with test oil.
Holding the actuator with the sealing face uppermost, rotate the actuator lever fully clockwise.
Position the actuator with the electrical connector facing towards you and the lever downwards.
Align the actuator fixing holes with those on the cover and gently lower the actuator into position
on the pump. The actuator must be pressed into position against the cover as the O-ring
engages. It should not be rotated out of alignment with the cover bosses during fitting, as this
could cause incorrect engagement with the control linkage.
Fit and tighten the actuator fixing screws.
Refer to the engine/generator set manufacturer’s additional fitting instructions to complete the
conversion.

4. DPG DIAGNOSTICS
The DPG pump has introduced a number of new features that could give rise to problems during
setting/adjustments.
It is probable that the pump’s initial calibration settings will need to be ‘fine tuned’ in order to get
the optimum performance on the engine or generator.

The tables below give guidance on faults which could be attributed to the new features.

a) Test Bench

Fault Possible causes

Low delivery --- 750 rpm Over speed screw set too far in.
