FM52 - Gear Pump Demonstration Unit

Two gear wheels operate inside a casing. One is driven while the other rotates in mesh with it. The liquid is carried around in the space between consecutive teeth and then ejected as the teeth mesh. The pump has no valves. It is a positive displacement pump and will deliver against high pressures. The output is a more even flow than that of a reciprocating pump. It is particularly suitable for high-viscosity fluids.
