Diaphragm-Pump


The Zeta 40P/GR Polypropylene Pump with Gearbox is a 3-diaphragm poly pump with control unit with adjustable pressure regulator, manual dump lever, dual ball valve outlets and pressure gauge. It is fitted with a gearbox for 4HP to 6.5HP gas engines with 3/4" shafts. The Udor 40/P series poly pumps have polypropylene and stainless steel liquid handling parts, making them ideal for use with chlorine (up to 10%) to kill mold, mildew and fungus. They are also useable with liquid fertilizers, suspension products, de-icing materials and other hard-to-handle liquids. The bolts on the inside and outside of this pump are of stainless steel to prevent rusting, making this ideal for use with salt water as well. These Zeta pumps are easily adaptable to PTO's, gas engines, hydraulic and belt drive applications

A Gear Driven Pump

A Gear Driven Pump is essentially a solid shaft pump with a direct drive gear reduction unit attached.  With a gear driven pump, the original pump crankcase is mounted to a separate crankcase for the reduction gears.  The two units are mounted together but individually sealed with the gear box using a thicker oil like gear lube whereas the pump uses the standard 30 weight, non-detergent oil. The pump and gearbox are then attached to the engine directly via the hollow shaft on the gear box.

The Pros and Cons:

The pump and gearbox are self contained with no belts and pulleys.  No belt guard taking up space.  The gear ratio being approximately 2.2:1 allows for the pump to run at slower speeds with higher output volumes than most high speed direct drive pumps.  The gear box driven machine can run for longer times with higher efficiency.  The initial cost is more for the gear box type unit versus a belt drive unit but makes up for it in less down time that you might have with belts and pulleys.
