H85F Lobe Pump Hydrodynamics Lab Educational Equipment
LOBE PUMP
The lobe pump is very similar to the gear pump, but lobes are used in place of gears. Each lobe is driven and they do not touch during operation. The wear is much less and, as they don’t touch, lubrication needs are eliminated. This lends them naturally to food and applications requiring high sanitary levels. They are, however, more expensive than a gear pump.
LEARNING OUTCOMES
• Understanding pump performance.
• Creating characteristic curves from experimental data.
• Investigating, analysing and comparing the characteristics of different pump types (if more than one pump is purchased).
