ABSTRACT:
Disclosed are a fail-safe linkage for a reciprocating pump and a method for repairing the pump following failure of the linkage. The pump linkage includes a break rod inserted between the crosshead and piston rod so that an inevitable failure of the linkage occurs predictably in the break rod. In such a manner, pump downtime can be reduced following failure since the break rod can be easily replaced without extensive disassembly of the pump.
