4. Working Principle
The pump operates through a pair of meshing gears rotating inside the pump chamber, creating volumetric changes:
• Suction Phase: As gears disengage, the volume increases, generating a vacuum to draw in oil.
• Discharge Phase: As gears engage, the volume decreases, forcing oil out under pressure.

6. Common Faults & Troubleshooting
1. Vibration & Noise
• Causes: Air ingestion, mechanical wear, excessive oil viscosity, poor gear precision.
• Solutions: Lap sealing surfaces, replace oil seals, clean filters, adjust couplings, use oil with proper viscosity.
2. Insufficient Flow Output
• Causes: High oil temperature reducing viscosity, improper oil viscosity, incorrect pump installation, low engine speed.
• Solutions: Control oil temperature, select appropriate oil, correct pump orientation, check engine speed.
3. Poor Rotation
• Causes: Excessively small axial/radial clearances, contaminants inside pump, incorrect assembly, poor coupling alignment.
• Solutions: Adjust clearances, remove debris, reassemble correctly, ensure coupling alignment (≤0.1 mm).
4. Overheating
• Causes: Same as poor rotation, improper oil viscosity, friction between side plates/shaft sleeves and gear end faces, high ambient temperature.
• Solutions: Refer to poor rotation solutions, select proper oil, repair friction components, improve cooling.
