Gear pump of the Turkish company ATLAS KIP 2 inch with a maximum capacity of 14 m3 per hour, 5.5 kW, 475 rpm. The pump casing material is GG25 cast iron.
Internal gear pumps are a kind of gear pumps, where two pinions differ in diameter, the small (driven) one is placed inside the large (main) pinion. The latter is also called a rotor. The advantage of such design is compactness. Gear pumps are used for pumping liquid and dense substances in various industries. The pumps are ideal for highly viscous liquids because they operate at low speeds.
Depending on the pump materials this type of pump can pump the following liquids: diesel fuel, starch, soaps, melted pork fat, acetone, gelatin, creams, sodium silica, syrups, gasoline, fats, creosote, oil products, alcohols, bitumen, isocyanate, varnishes, oil, grape must, viscose, kerosene, fuel oils, peck, trichloroethylene, wax, acids, mineral oils, plasticizers, chemicals, glycerin, glue, lubricating oils, plastics, chocolate, glucose, paints, coolants, polyols, alkalis, tar, printing inks, molasses, brines, esters, detergents, enamel paints, methanol, solvents, ethylene glycol.
