High pressure cooling

Machining produces fines as well as chips; small particles of metal that are highly abrasive and, if not removed from the system by ultra-fine filtration will eventually destroy any pump where bearings and seals are exposed to the pumped coolant.



Hydra-Cell pumps are designed to operate under such conditions and handle fines over 500mµ in diameter, removing the need for expensive fine filtration. Fines between 10 & 50µm in diameter can cause severe damage to screw pumps.


Should a filter become completely blocked, screw and gear pumps will tend to overheat as they need the pumped fluid for sealing, internal lubrication and cooling, whereas Hydra-Cell pumps will continue to operate without damage, indefinitely.
