Flow Rate: The pump's flow rate typically ranges from 1 to 50 gallons per minute (GPM), depending on its size and configuration.
This versatility makes it suitable for a wide range of applications.
Pressure Rating: These pumps can handle pressures ranging from 1000 to 5000 pounds per square inch (psi). The specific pressure capacity may vary depending on the model.
Materials: Most 5K1 47021NIS hydraulic gear pumps are constructed from high-quality materials such as cast iron or aluminum for improved durability and corrosion resistance.
Mounting Options: These pumps can be mounted in various configurations, including flange, foot, or direct drive, allowing flexibility in installation.
Seal Options: Depending on the application, various seal options are available, such as lip seals or mechanical seals, ensuring leak-free operation.
Construction:
The 5K1 47021NIS hydraulic gear pump typically consists of the following key components:
Gear Set: It comprises two intermeshing gears – the driving gear (connected to the input shaft) and the driven gear.
These gears create chambers that trap hydraulic fluid and force it through the pump.
Housings: The gears are enclosed in a sturdy housing, often made of cast iron or aluminum. The housing maintains precise gear alignment and contains the hydraulic fluid.
Inlet and Outlet Ports: These are openings in the pump housing that allow hydraulic fluid to enter and exit the pump.
Shaft: The input shaft connects to the driving gear and transmits mechanical power to the gear set.
Industrial Machinery: These pumps are used in manufacturing equipment, injection molding machines, and conveyor systems.
Agriculture: They are employed in tractors, combines, and other agricultural machinery for functions like lifting and steering.
Construction: Hydraulic gear pumps power heavy equipment like excavators, loaders, and bulldozers, enabling precise control of various functions.
Material Handling: Forklifts and conveyor systems use hydraulic gear pumps for lifting, tilting, and material transport.
Automotive: In power steering systems and hydraulic brakes, these pumps provide the necessary hydraulic pressure.
Marine: Hydraulic gear pumps are found in boat steering systems and winches for sailboats and yachts.
