Are all vertical lubricating oil pumps gear pumps?
Thread Content
I would like to ask everyone: are the vertical lubricating oil pumps installed at the aircraft engine fuel stations all gear pumps? Are all vertical oil pumps installed on top of the fuel tank?
Not necessarily; the selection and installation of the pump depend on the designer’s approach and the rational use of space.
{:2_30:} I haven’t come across vertical-mounted screw pumps yet – the kind used in oil stations for that type of unit
By the way, are there any gear pumps that can be installed vertically?
There is no fundamental difference between vertical and horizontal types; the difference lies only in the installation space required. Vertical types occupy less floor space and thus save area
For vertical gear oil pumps, the key factors to consider are the type of oil to be transported, the temperature, whether there are particles present, and the available installation space. We specialize in gear pumps; feel free to contact me if you need any assistance: 13588921611
Gas stations are equipped with both vertical screw pumps and centrifugal pumps, especially those for high flow rates. It mainly depends on the customer's requirements. It’s mainly a space issue. Vertical pumps are installed on top of the fuel tank, as well as beside it.
Hello, sea friend! The vertical lubricating oil pumps installed at the unit’s oil station come in two types: gear pumps and screw pumps. Both are placed above the oil tank, and the vertical design is chosen primarily to minimize the space required. Gear pumps are inexpensive, but they are noisy and have low efficiency. The screw pump is the opposite. I hope this can help you.
