DAYTON 4KHP9 Rotary Gear Pump Head 3/8 Inch 1/2 Hp

Dayton 4KHP9 rotary gear pump head consists of two interlocking gears that rotate to create suction and discharge pressure. It is commonly used in oil & gas, chemical processing, food & beverage and pharmaceutical industries. This gear pump head is useful for transferring viscous or abrasive fluids efficiently. It is a popular choice for uniform fluid transfer in lubrication, fueling and metering processes.

Features:

• Dayton 4KHP9 rotary gear pump head is made of bronze to handle pressures up to 100 psi.
• Its close-coupled motor mounting type simplifies installation and offers space-saving benefits without compromising on stability.
• This rotary gear pump head is reinforced with Buna-N O-rings for effective sealing.
• It comes with a relief valve for pressure regulation and system protection.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Q. What factors affect the performance of a rotary gear pump head?

A. Fluid viscosity, operating temperature, pressure requirements and speed of rotation can influence the performance of any rotary gear pump head.

Q. How can I optimise the performance of Dayton 4KHP9 rotary gear pump head?

A. To optimise its performance, maintain proper fluid viscosity within the recommended range. Also, monitor and control operating temperature & pressure regularly.

Q. What are some common issues that can arise during the operation of a rotary gear pump head?

A. Common issues include leaks around seals, excessive wear on gears & bearings, or cavitation due to improper fluid conditions or operating parameters.

Q. What are some tips for extending the lifespan of Dayton 4KHP9 rotary gear pump head?

A.

• Use the pump within its specified operating parameters for pressure, temperature, and viscosity.
• Ensure proper alignment and installation to prevent excessive wear on components.
• Monitor fluid quality and cleanliness to avoid damage to pump internals.
• Keep the pump and surrounding area clean to prevent contaminants from entering the system.
• Consider installing filters or strainers upstream of the pump to protect against debris.
