The 12R5 pump belongs to the radial piston pump family and consists of two independent pump sections integrated into a single housing.
Each section consists of a series of pistons arranged radially around a central drive shaft. These sections can be configured to operate either in parallel or in series, depending on the hydraulic system requirements. This dual-pump design allows for a wide range of flow and pressure combinations, making it suitable for various applications.
One of the key specifications of the 12R5 pump is its maximum operating pressure. This pump can handle pressures up to X PSI (pounds per square inch), ensuring reliable performance in high-pressure hydraulic systems. The maximum pressure rating guarantees that the pump can withstand the forces generated during operation without any leakage or failure.
Another important specification is the displacement of each pump section, which determines the volume of fluid delivered per revolution. The 12R5 pump typically offers different displacement options for each section, allowing for fine-tuning of the flow rates. The displacement of the pump sections is typically denoted as Y1 and Y2, representing the flow rates of each section. This flexibility in displacement options enables the pump to meet specific system requirements.
The 12R5 pump provides high volumetric efficiency, which is a crucial factor in hydraulic systems.
Volumetric efficiency refers to the pump's ability to convert the input power into hydraulic power effectively. This efficiency is essential for reducing energy consumption and minimizing heat generation. The pump's high volumetric efficiency ensures optimal system performance and extends the lifespan of the hydraulic components.
Moreover, the 12R5 pump features advanced sealing mechanisms to prevent fluid leakage. The pistons and cylinders are precisely machined to maintain tight tolerances, minimizing internal leakage. High-quality seals and sealing techniques are employed to ensure a reliable and durable seal, both between the pistons and cylinders and within the pump sections. These sealing features enhance the overall performance and longevity of the pump.
The pump is designed with a focus on durability and reliability. It incorporates high-quality materials and robust construction to withstand demanding operating conditions. The pump's housing is designed for optimal heat dissipation, which helps in maintaining the pump's performance even under high temperatures. This design feature reduces the risk of overheating and extends the pump's overall lifespan.
