Flow Rate: This pump provides a specific flow rate, typically measured in gallons per minute (GPM) or liters per minute (LPM).
This flow rate indicates the volume of hydraulic fluid it can deliver.
Pressure Rating: The pump has a maximum pressure rating, usually measured in pounds per square inch (PSI) or bars, indicating the level of hydraulic pressure it can generate.
Materials: Typically, the pump is constructed from durable materials such as cast iron, aluminum, or steel, ensuring longevity and resistance to wear.
Mounting Options: The pump may offer various mounting options, including flange, foot, or bracket mounts, to accommodate different installation requirements.
Shaft Configuration: The pump's shaft can come in various configurations, such as keyed, splined, or tapered, to match the coupling method of the hydraulic motor.
Functionality:
The primary function of the 26006RZC hydraulic gear pump is to convert mechanical energy from a prime mover, such as an electric motor or an internal combustion engine, into hydraulic energy. Here's how it operates:
Gear Mechanism: This pump operates on the principle of a gear mechanism, typically consisting of two gears – a driving gear and a driven gear. As the driving gear rotates, it creates a low-pressure area on the inlet side, drawing hydraulic fluid into the pump.
Fluid Displacement: As the gears continue to rotate, they mesh together, forming a seal that traps a specific volume of hydraulic fluid between the gear teeth. This trapped fluid is then conveyed to the outlet side of the pump.
Pressure Generation: The meshing of the gears pressurizes the hydraulic fluid, increasing its pressure as it moves toward the outlet port. This pressurized fluid is subsequently directed to various hydraulic components, such as cylinders and motors, to perform work.
Flow Control: The flow rate is determined by the pump's rotational speed. Faster rotation results in higher flow rates, while slower rotation reduces the flow.
This allows precise control over the hydraulic system's flow and pressure.
