1.2 UD gear pump unit

1.2.1 Functional description

UD gear pump units are rotary positive-

displacement pumps.
The pump body contains two counter-rotating
gears.
A gear is driven by the electric motor's drive
shaft. The oil is drawn in by the rotary motion
of the two gears. The oil is then delivered to Sectional view of UD gear pump unit
the pump outlet between the tooth gaps and
the gear chamber wall .
A pressure regulating valve protects the pump
from excessively high pressures.
Gear pump units with a nominal volumetric
flow of 0.12 to 0.35 l/min are used depending
on the size and type of the engine.
On large diesel engines, special vibration-­
resistant multi-range electric motors are used
that fulfill marine regulations.
