Horizontal/Vertical, Foot-mounted, Flange-mounted, or Close-coupled

Seal System

Mechanical Seal, Lip Seal, Packing Gland, or Mag-Drive (sealless)

Efficiency Rating

85% to 95% (high volumetric efficiency for viscous fluids)

Viscosity Range

1 cP to 1,000,000 cP – Optimal performance: 100-100,000 cP

Speed Range

100 RPM to 3,000 RPM (lower speeds for high-viscosity fluids)

Solids Handling Capability

Max. 50μm particles – Special hardened designs available

Certifications & Standards

API 676, ATEX, ISO 9001, FDA, 3A Sanitary (for food-grade applications)

Operating Noise Level

Having Doubts? Our FAQ

Check all our Frequently Asked Question

What fluids are best suited for gear pumps in industrial applications?

Gear pumps handle a wide range of fluids, including lubricating oils, polymers, and resins. Their materials and design adapt to chemical compatibility and viscosity levels. This ensures reliable pumping without damage or performance loss. 

How does the speed range affect the gear pump's performance?

Lower speeds improve pumping of high-viscosity fluids by reducing shear and heat buildup. Higher speeds support applications requiring higher flow rates with lower viscosities. Choosing the correct speed balances efficiency and fluid integrity.

What mounting options are available for gear pumps to fit different setups?

Gear pumps can be mounted horizontally or vertically, foot-mounted, flange-mounted, or close-coupled to motors. This flexibility supports various system layouts and space constraints. It also simplifies integration in existing or new equipment.

How do gear pumps handle solids or particles in the fluid?

Standard gear pumps handle small particles up to 50 microns with care. Hardened designs can handle abrasive particles without significant wear. Selecting the right pump type reduces downtime and maintenance in particle-prone applications.

What power options are available to suit different industrial needs?

Gear pumps operate with motors from 0.1 kW up to 150 kW, compatible with 3-phase, 50/60 Hz systems. Variable frequency drives can optimize speed and energy use in specific processes. This range allows adaptation to diverse operational requirements.
