When it comes to moving high-viscosity fluids that would choke a standard centrifugal pump, Gear Pumps are the industry standard for reliability and performance. As a type of positive displacement pump, they operate by using rotating gears to enclose a fixed volume of fluid and mechanically move it through the system. This design ensures a consistent, non-pulsating flow that is directly proportional to the rotation speed, making them exceptional for applications requiring precise metering and dosing.
Ideal for High-Viscosity Fluids The true strength of a gear pump lies in its ability to handle thick, heavy liquids. While other pumps lose efficiency as viscosity increases, gear pumps thrive. They are the preferred choice for transferring:
Petrochemicals: Lube oils, diesel, fuel oil, and pitch. Chemicals: Resins, polymers, and adhesives. Food & Beverage: Syrups, chocolate, molasses, and edible oils.
Robust and Versatile Design Whether you require an External Gear Pump for high-pressure durability or an Internal Gear Pump for shear-sensitive fluids, PumpWorks offers a solution tailored to your needs. Our range includes cast iron and stainless steel options to match the chemical compatibility of your process.
Expert Support and Service Integrating the right gear pump requires careful consideration of fluid properties and temperature. Our team specialises in Design and Selection, ensuring you get the correct clearances and motor sizing for your specific application. Furthermore, because gear pumps operate with tight tolerances, regular care is essential.
