FTP ~ helical gear, fluid transfer pump

This FTP helical gear pump is the ideal solution for low-pressure lubrication applications where low-viscosity fluids are required, such as fire-resistant fluids. Displacement from 7 cc/rev to 87 cc/rev with volumetric efficiency levels of 90 to 95%, compared with screw pumps at approximately 66%, and double contact gear pumps at around 87%. This helical gear pump performs at these levels even at low rotational speeds of 200 rpm therefore requiring less expensive connected running gear. Typical applications include large lubrication systems, lubrication of the guides of machine tools, and the lubrication and cooling of tools themselves. Fire-resistant fluids are used whenever there is a possibility that a hydraulic fluid (also used for lubrication) may encounter a source of ignition, such as the surface of very hot equipment. Fire-resistant hydraulic fluids are specially formulated so they are more difficult to ignite and do not propagate a flame from an ignition source.
