The 40045BEL hydraulic gear pump is a positive-displacement pump known for its simplicity and reliability.
It typically consists of two meshing gears, namely the driving gear (connected to the input shaft) and the driven gear. These gears rotate within a housing or chamber, trapping fluid between their teeth and the chamber walls. As the gears mesh and rotate, they create a vacuum at the inlet, drawing hydraulic fluid into the pump. Subsequently, as the gears continue to rotate, the fluid is pressurized and expelled from the pump's outlet. This design ensures a constant and smooth flow of hydraulic fluid.
Specifications:
Flow Rate: The 40045BEL pump is available in various sizes, with flow rates ranging from a few liters per minute (LPM) to over a hundred LPM, depending on the specific model and application requirements.
Pressure Rating: These pumps are capable of generating hydraulic pressures up to several thousand pounds per square inch (PSI). The exact pressure capacity may vary between different models.
Materials: They are commonly constructed from materials such as cast iron, aluminum, or steel, chosen based on factors like durability, compatibility with the hydraulic fluid, and the application's operating conditions.
Mounting Options: The 40045BEL hydraulic gear pump can be mounted in various orientations, including flange, foot, or bracket mounts, to suit different installation requirements.
Seal Options: Depending on the intended application and compatibility with hydraulic fluids, these pumps may feature various sealing options, including lip seals, O-rings, or other specialized seals.
Shaft Options: The pump's input shaft may come with different configurations to accommodate various connection methods, such as spline, key, or threaded shafts.
Temperature Range: These pumps are designed to operate within a specific temperature range, typically from -20°C to 120°C, to ensure optimal performance and longevity.
Functionality:
The 40045BEL hydraulic gear pump is known for its efficient and consistent performance. Its functionality can be summarized as follows:
Fluid Intake: The pump starts by drawing hydraulic fluid from the reservoir or source through its inlet port.
Pressurization: As the gears rotate, the trapped fluid is compressed and pressurized, generating hydraulic pressure within the system.
Fluid Discharge: The pressurized fluid is then expelled through the pump's outlet port, ready to be directed to the hydraulic system's actuators, motors, or other components.
Flow Control: Flow control can be achieved by adjusting the pump's speed or using additional valves to regulate the flow rate as per the system's requirements.
