20090193800 | SERVICE PACK TANDEM PUMP - In certain embodiments, a service pack includes an engine, a tandem pump system coupled to the engine, and a controller. The tandem pump system may include a first pump and a second pump in tandem with one another. The controller may be configured to enable the first pump at a first load condition associated with the engine, the second pump at a second load condition associated with the engine, and both the first and second pumps at a third load condition associated with the engine. The load conditions may correspond to engine loads, hydraulic loads, or other loads associated with the engine. For example, at a low hydraulic pressure, the controller may selectively operate both the first and second pumps, whereas the controller may selectively operate only the first pump or the second pump at high and medium hydraulic pressures, respectively. In this manner, the system can provide suitable flow without overloading the engine. | 08-06-2009 |
