Rexroth external gear pumps are available as standard gear pumps in the 4 series of B, F, N and G and as SILENCE gear pumps in the series of S, T and U, in which the displacements are graded by different gear widths. Further configuration variants are given by different flanges, shafts, valve arrangements and multiple pump combinations.
Product Description
The external gear pump consists essentially of a pair of gears supported in bearing bushings or bearing, dependent on the series, and the case with a front and rear cover. The drive shaft protrudes from the front cover where it is sealed by the shaft seal ring. The bearing forces are absorbed by special bearing bushings with sufficient elasticity to produce surface contact instead of line contact. They also ensure excellent resistance to galling – especially at low speed. The gears have 12 teeth. This keeps both flow pulsation and noise emission to a minimum.
The internal sealing is achieved by forces which are proportional to delivery pressure. This ensures optimum efficiency. The bearings provide the seal at the ends of the gaps between the teeth which carry the pressurized oil. The sealing zone between the gear teeth and the bearings is controlled by the admission of operating pressure to the rear of the bearing bushings.
Special seals form the boundary of the zone. The radial clearance at the tips of the gear teeth is sealed by internal forces pushing them against the case.
