Hydra-Cell High Pressure Coolant Pumps, being true positive displacement pumps, can maintain exceptional efficiency irrespective of coolant viscosity and system pressure whereas screw and gear pumps, relying on the pumped coolant for internal sealing, experience a significant decline in efficiency as system pressure increases or fluid viscosity reduces. With a Hydra-Cell pump, flow rate is directly proportional to input shaft speed, enabling a variety of precise control options to be employed. With high pumping efficiency, long service life and minimal maintenance requirement, Hydra-Cell seal-less, coolant pumps can truly be considered to be the high pressure coolant solution with lowest cost…
