Pump Type: The 5B1 40150FEN is a hydraulic gear pump, which means it operates using a set of interlocking gears to move hydraulic fluid.
Gear pumps are known for their simplicity, reliability, and cost-effectiveness.
Flow Rate: This pump is capable of delivering a maximum flow rate of 5 gallons per minute (GPM). Flow rate is a crucial specification as it determines how much fluid the pump can transfer within a given time frame, and it is often tailored to the specific hydraulic system requirements.
Pressure Rating: The 5B1 40150FEN is designed to work under a maximum pressure of 1500 pounds per square inch (PSI). Pressure rating is a vital specification, as it dictates the pump's ability to handle the high pressures commonly encountered in hydraulic systems.
Mounting: This pump is commonly mounted to a power source, such as an electric motor or an internal combustion engine, through standard SAE mounting flanges. The mounting type and size are essential considerations when integrating the pump into a hydraulic system.
Port Size: The pump features SAE-12 inlet and SAE-10 outlet ports. These port sizes ensure compatibility with standard hydraulic hoses and fittings, facilitating easy installation and connection to other hydraulic components.
Material Construction: The 5B1 40150FEN Hydraulic Gear Pump is typically constructed from high-quality materials such as cast iron or aluminum alloy, depending on the manufacturer's specifications. These materials are chosen for their durability and resistance to wear and tear.
Seals and Gaskets: To prevent hydraulic fluid leakage and ensure long-term reliability, the pump is equipped with high-quality seals and gaskets made from materials compatible with various hydraulic fluids, including hydraulic oils and synthetic fluids.
Direction of Rotation: This pump is designed to rotate in a clockwise direction when viewed from the shaft end. The direction of rotation is a critical consideration when coupling the pump with a power source, ensuring it operates correctly within the hydraulic system.
Temperature Range: The 5B1 40150FEN is engineered to function efficiently within a specified temperature range, typically between -20°C (-4°F) and 80°C (176°F). This temperature tolerance is important for maintaining consistent performance in various operating environments.
Shaft Configuration: The pump is equipped with a standard straight shaft with key. The shaft's configuration is essential for connecting the pump to the power source, such as a motor or an engine, using a coupling or belt drive.
Noise Level: This pump is designed with noise-reduction features, ensuring that it operates quietly and minimizes noise pollution in industrial settings. The specific noise level may vary depending on operating conditions and fluid viscosity.
