Technology

How do Precision Gear Pumps work?

The design utilizes high AGMA standard external spur gears enclosed within a close tolerance housing assembly. This provides you the precise volume of fluid dispensed per shaft revolution. The housing is constructed from a precision ground and lapped three-plate assembly. This assembly is aligned with dowels to allow close control of operating clearances. This construction method in combination with several proprietary internal features is what ensures precise, pulseless and reliable flow under varying process conditions. When Zenith pumps are coupled with a pre-packaged, integrated, closed-loop speed control and a compact motor driver assembly (AC or DC), Zenith is able to provide the most precise and flexible metering gear pump system on the market.

Demanding applications require a precise volume of fluid dispensed – reliably, accurately and consistently. The Zenith precision metering gear pump is the industry standard for true precision metering for challenging applications in a wide variety of industrial processes.

Applications
Zenith Pumps

Zenith pumps and systems are used in a range of applications in a variety of markets. Generally, Zenith pumps meter chemical solutions; yet the requirements of each generic metering function can be industry specific. Zenith pumps applications are classified as dosing, filling, injection, coating, extruding, spraying or spinning.

Zenith pumps feature a wide operating flow, pressure and temperature range capable of handling abrasive, corrosive, hot, cold, viscous, toxic and shear sensitive fluids.

  • Minimum – Maximum Flow Rate = 0.16 – 27,000 cc/rev
  • Maximum Viscosity = 1,000,000 cps
  • Maximum Pressure = 4000 psi
  • Maximum Temperature = 900F
