  • Internal Gear Pump
    Publication number: 20150139843
    Abstract: An internal gear pump with a field replaceable idler is disclosed that may be used for sanitary applications. Access to the idler mainly merely requires removal of the head. Access to the seal assembly disposed at the inboard end of the pump chamber is also fast and easy as removal of the head exposes a fastener that secures the rotor to the drive shaft. Removal of this fastener enables the rotor to be removed with a standard rotor-pulling tool thereby exposing the pump chamber seal assembly, which may be cleaned, serviced or replaced as needed.
