Gear Pump Demonstration Unit
Product Code : JA-FMAHLE-9970
The Gear Pump Demonstration Unit (SKU JA-FMAHLE-9970) is a small-scale positive displacement pump set-up for producing the characteristic curves of a gear pump. A motor-driven gear pump with a clear acrylic head and reservoir circulates water continuously on a stainless steel plinth, and electronic sensors measure outlet pressure, flow rate and water temperature. JaincoLab supplies this gear pump demonstration unit to engineering colleges and polytechnics for hydraulic machines practicals.
Specifications
The listed ratings are a maximum flow of 6.5 litres per minute (typical), a 250 W motor, a maximum head of 25 m and a maximum pump speed of 1800 rpm; a manual outlet valve controls the flow and a pressure relief valve is fitted.

Experiments on the gear pump demonstration unit
The gear pump demonstration unit is used to measure constant-speed pump performance and plot outlet pressure against shaft power, speed, efficiency, flow rate and volumetric efficiency, so students can compare a gear pump with centrifugal pumps in hydraulic machines practicals.
- Demonstrating a gear pump in operation
- Plotting outlet pressure against motor shaft power, pump speed and flow rate
- Determining pump efficiency and volumetric efficiency
- Comparing student calculations with the computer results
