What are the advantages of a gear pump?
The advantages of gear pumps are: • Positive Displacement, resulting in higher efficiencies; • Pulse-free, meaning flows do not have surges and can be easily and accurately measured; • Simplicity of Design, there are no check valves to clog or fail and no pulsation dampeners need to be placed in the line; • Moderate Primability; • Multiple Seal Arrangements or Magnetically Driven; and • Low Cost
