What is the operating temperature and pressure range of a melt gear pump?
The operating temperature and pressure range of a melt gear pump are as follows:
I. Operating Temperature
Melt gear pumps have a wide operating temperature range, capable of adapting from low to high temperatures. Generally speaking, their upper operating temperature limit can reach 350°C. This characteristic allows melt gear pumps to be applied in polymer processing under various extreme temperature environments, such as the handling of low-temperature frozen materials or high-temperature molten plastics.
II. Operating Pressure
Melt gear pumps also exhibit relatively high operating pressures. Their outlet pressure typically ranges from 0 to 40 MPa, with specific parameters varying based on different models. Additionally, melt gear pumps can withstand certain pressure differences, ensuring stable operation in high-pressure environments.
It should be noted that the actual operating temperature and pressure of a melt gear pump may be influenced by various factors, including material properties, pump structural design, and operating environment. Therefore, when selecting a melt gear pump, it is essential to determine the appropriate operating temperature and pressure range based on actual usage requirements and material properties. Meanwhile, during use, attention should also be paid to the maintenance and care of the melt gear pump to ensure its long-term stable operation.
In summary, the operating temperature range of a melt gear pump is usually from low temperatures to 350°C, and the operating pressure range is typically between 0 and 40 MPa. Specific parameters may vary depending on the model and material properties.
