Overview

This manual describes the D3 Pump Service, part number #04161797, for Bayer SeedGrowth™ Equipment, specifically designed for use with a PSD Tank. The D3 Pump is a critical component in the seed treatment process, ensuring accurate and safe application of chemical products to seeds.

Function Description:

The D3 Pump is an integral part of the seed treatment system, responsible for precisely metering and delivering chemical products. It operates by drawing chemical from a supply tank (PSD Tank) and pumping it through a manifold to the seed treatment application point. The pump's design incorporates a diaphragm mechanism, which is crucial for handling various chemical viscosities and ensuring consistent flow rates. The system includes inlet and outlet valve assemblies that control the direction and flow of the chemical. Proper functioning of the diaphragm, valves, and associated O-rings is essential for the pump's performance and the accuracy of chemical application. The pump is mounted on a shelf and connected to the PSD Tank via hoses and couplers, with a main supply ball valve controlling the chemical flow from the tank.

Usage Features:

The D3 Pump is designed for use with Bayer SeedGrowth™ Equipment, specifically the PSD Tank. It requires careful installation and operation to ensure optimal performance. Users must adhere to safety guidelines, including disconnecting from the power source before maintenance and using appropriate Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) when handling chemicals. The pump's operation involves controlling chemical flow via a main supply ball valve and ensuring proper connections of hoses and couplers. Regular calibration is emphasized to maintain accuracy in chemical application and seed coverage, as variables like humidity, temperature, seed size, and chemical viscosity can affect performance. The system is designed to be user-serviceable for common wear parts, with clear instructions provided for disassembly and reassembly.

Maintenance Features:

The manual provides detailed step-by-step instructions for servicing the D3 Pump, focusing on inspection and replacement of wear components. Key maintenance procedures include:

  • Disconnection: Always disconnect from the power source and close the main supply ball valve before any service.
  • Removal of Pump Assembly: The pump and base assembly are removed from the pump shelf for easier access.
  • Manifold Inspection: Removal of the manifold to inspect O-rings for wear or damage.
  • Valve Assembly Service:
    • Removal and inspection of Spring Retainers, Valve Springs, Valves, and Valve Seats.
    • Replacement of worn or damaged components.
    • Installation of new O-rings on Valve Seats, ensuring proper lubrication with lubricating gel or petroleum jelly.
    • Cleaning of Valve Ports on the Valve Plate.
  • Diaphragm and Plunger Inspection:
    • Removal and inspection of the Diaphragm, Screw, O-ring, and Follower.
    • Replacement of ruptured, torn, or severely worn diaphragms.
    • Inspection of the Plunger on the Plunger Shaft for wear.
  • Reassembly: Detailed steps for reassembling the diaphragm, plunger, manifold, and valve components, including proper tightening of bolts and application of thread locker where specified.
  • Connection: Reconnecting hoses, couplers, and U-clips, and opening the main supply ball valve.
  • Required Tools: 7/16" wrench (2), Drip/Spill pan, Slot Screwdriver.
  • Safety: Emphasis on using a drip/spill pan during repairs and following all chemical safety precautions, including reading product labels and Safety Data Sheets (SDS).
