🛠️ General Structural Parameters
- Housing: EN-GJL300 (GG300) high-strength cast iron, two-piece construction
- Gear Set: Carburized & hardened steel gears; Nitrided ductile iron pressure plates
- Bearings: Multi-component sliding bearings with external support, high radial load capacity
- Shaft Seal: Double radial oil seal; FKM fluororubber seal optional for high temperature / bio-oil applications
- Mounting Flange: SAE flange / European 4-bolt flange optional
- Ports: SAE standard flange ports, side / end port options available
- Rotation: Standard clockwise (CW), counter-clockwise (CCW) optional
- Integrated Valve Options: Built-in relief valve, anti-cavitation valve, load-sensing priority valve, solenoid bypass valve
- Combination Types: Multi-stage pumps available, e.g. KP20+KP30, KP30+KP35 with common inlet
💡 Selection Notes
- Continuous Pressure: Long-term operating pressure, the reference basis for system selection; Peak Pressure: Allowable for short-duration shock loads, not for continuous operation
- As displacement increases, allowable continuous pressure and maximum speed decrease accordingly
- KP35 is compact version. Shorter installation length than KP30 at the same displacement, ideal for machinery with limited mounting space
- KP40 Plus reinforced version with upgraded materials and higher shock resistance, for extreme working conditions such as mining and heavy-duty tippers.
