Learn how electric lubrication pumps work

What is a lubrication pump? A pump is a device that transports fluids (liquids or gases) or slurries through mechanical action by converting electricity into hydraulic power. The operation of the pump depends on various energy sources, such as wind power, manual operation, engines or electricity. The size of the pump depends on the size of the equipment applied, and the size of the pump ranges from small to large. There are many different types of pumps, and electric lubrication pumps are one of them. An electric lubrication pump is a mechanical device that is driven by an electric motor and the pressure transformation plate is powered by a distribution motor. Electricity is delivered from the switchboard to the electric pump via a power line connected to the water pipe.
Electric lubrication pumps mainly promote the circulation of lubricant through the channels that need to be lubricated. In addition to its lubrication function, the fluid helps the engine and the systems it uses to cool. Improvements not possible with conventional systems can be achieved with electric lubrication pumps, with automatic lubrication systems providing consistent lubrication more often. Too little or too much lubricant can cause friction and heat, create resistance to bearings and damage bearing seals. In addition, the best time to lubricate bearings is when the equipment is moving. This is an unsafe and almost impossible task for the operator of the device. Automatic lubrication systems provide a safer way to provide more precise lubrication of bearings, bushings and other lubrication points when needed.
So how does the lubrication pump work? As the meshing gear rotates in the pump body, the gear teeth continue to enter and exit and engage. In the suction chamber, the gear teeth gradually exit the meshing state, so that the volume of the suction chamber gradually increases, the pressure decreases, and the liquid enters the suction chamber under the action of liquid level pressure and enters the discharge chamber with the gear teeth. In the discharge chamber, the gear teeth gradually enter the meshing state, the teeth between the gears are gradually occupied by the teeth of a gear, the volume of the discharge chamber decreases, and the liquid pressure in the discharge chamber increases, so the liquid is discharged from the pump outlet outside the pump, and the gear side continues to rotate, forming a continuous oil transfer process. This is how lubrication pumps work.
Electric lubrication pumps are suitable for single- and double-line dry and thin centralized lubrication systems with high lubrication frequency, long piping and dense lubrication points. The lubrication pump of this system is an electric high-pressure piston pump, and the working pressure can be adjusted at will within a certain pressure range, with double overload protection. The oil storage drum has an automatic oil level alarm device, and if the lubrication pump is equipped with an electric control box, it can realize the automatic control of centralized lubrication and realize real-time monitoring of the system.
