Gear pump is the ideal machine for the transferring of liquids in industrial operations. They operate with a pair of gears - a driver and an idler Gear - where the fluid is drawn into the suction created by the vacuum.
Since they are able to operate with a variety of fluid viscosities, gear pumps offer a number of applications. They are also popular for their high efficiency and modest cost in comparison to other pump designs.
There are a number of things you will want to consider when selecting a gear pump for your application. among other things, will be flow rate and pressure characteristics needed by your pump application, viscosity and temperature of the fluid being pumped, the materials of construction and any other special considerations or limitations of your application. Considering these factors carefully will help you to choose the right gear pump and guarantee best performance.
The pump temperature and pressure during use should be also checked and fixed promptly. Also, the pump must be kept clean and free of debris to avoid clogs that can damage the internal mechanisms.
In the end, the right gear pump for the job will be a function of the needs and constraints of the particular application. If you require a pump that is capable of pumping a very wide range of fluids of varying viscosities and temperatures, then a gear pump might be the right pump for your application.
