Using Masterflex® gear pumps to develop their innovation, scientists at Harvard University have created a new flow battery that potentially can store renewable energy throughout the day. The technology, including the Cole-Parmer gear pumps, is prominently displayed in an…
Micropump® gear pumps provide pulseless flow at moderate to high pressures, plus they offer the added advantage of leak- and contamination-free pumping. Unlike conventional gear pumps that use mechanical shaft seals, magnetically coupled Micropump pumps…
Gear pumps work by trapping fluid between the teeth of two or three rotating gears. Often, they are magnetically driven, which means they use less “wetted” materials for greater chemical compatibility. These pumps operate well…
What’s the difference between gear pumps, peristaltic pumps, and flexible impeller pumps? Can you define a progressing cavity? (Hint: It’s not something your dentist finds.) Learn the various pump types and what they can do…
