GEAR-TYPE HYDRAULIC PUMPS
|
|
Modern machines used in construction, logging, mining and material handling
rely to an increasing extent on hydraulic systems. The increased
productivity of these machines requires that hydraulic pumps have large
capacities and high pressure ratings to handle the heavier loads, faster cycles
and higher travel speeds.

|
High pressures impose greater stress on all components in the hydraulic
system. At the same time, increased reliability as required for
operational safety. Careful maintenance is essential to reduce failure
rate, extend service life and insure safe machine operation.

Gear-type hydraulic pumps will normally give good performance over a long
period of time when operating in a properly maintained system. Clean oil
of the correct grade, regular filter changes and frequent inspections of all
hydraulic system components are essential to hydraulic pump performance.
