AP2D Series Gear Pump Technical Overview (AP2D18/25/28/36)
(Focus: Engineering Specifications, Failure Analysis, Maintenance Protocols, and Cross-Compatibility)

1. Core Specifications & Performance Envelope
A. Key Parameters
【表格】
Model Displacement (cc/rev) Max. Pressure (bar) Theoretical Flow (L/min @ 2,200 RPM) Max. Speed (RPM) Port Thread
AP2D18 17.8 280 39.2 3,000 G1/2" (BSPP)
AP2D25 25.0 280 55.0 3,000 G3/4" (BSPP)
AP2D28 28.2 280 62.0 3,000 G3/4" (BSPP)
AP2D36 35.5 280 78.1 3,000 G1" (BSPP)
• Flow Efficiency:
• Volumetric Efficiency: 92–94% (clean ISO VG46 oil, 20°C)
• Mechanical Efficiency: 88–90% (at rated pressure)
• Viscosity Range:
• Optimal: 22–46 cSt (ISO VG32–VG46)
• Critical Limit: 10–500 cSt (avoid sustained operation <15 cSt or >400 cSt)
B. Design Highlights
• Gear Geometry:
• Helical Gears(15° helix angle): Reduces noise by 12 dB vs. spur gears.
• Pressure Balance Grooves: Minimizes axial thrust (extends shaft bearing life by 30%).
• Sealing System:
• Double Lip PTFE Rotary Seals: Withstands 280 bar intermittent pressure spikes.
• Case Drain Port: Mandatory for external leakage detection (required flow: 0.5–1 L/min).

2. Failure Mode Analysis (FMEA)
A. Top 3 Failure Root Causes
【表格】
Failure Mode Probability (%) Impact on System Detection Method
Gear Tooth Wear 45 20–30% flow loss; increased noise (≥85 dB) Ultrasonic wear testing (ASTM E1065)
Shaft Seal Leakage 30 Oil loss (1–2 L/day); risk of hydraulic lock Dye penetrant inspection (ISO 3452)
Case Cracking 15 Catastrophic failure; safety hazard Magnetic particle testing (ASTM E709)
B. Case Study: Gear Tooth Wear
• Scenario: AP2D28 pump fails after 1,800 hours in aHitachi ZX200-3excavator.
• Root Cause:
• Silica Contamination: 25 mg/L in oil (ISO 4406:22/20/17; target: ≤18/16/13).
• Abrasive Mechanism: Silica particles (20–50 μm) act as cutting tools on gear teeth.
• Mitigation:
• Upgrade filtration toDonaldson P165678(β10≥750, 99.9% efficiency at 10 μm).
• Reduce oil change interval from 1,000 to 750 hours in silica-rich environments.

3. Maintenance & Troubleshooting
A. Preventive Maintenance Schedule
【表格】
Interval (Hours) Task Acceptable Limits
50 Check case drain flow; inspect shaft seals ≤1 L/min; no visible leaks
250 Measure gear end play (with dial indicator) 0.05–0.12 mm
500 Perform oil analysis (particle count, water content, TAN) ISO 18/16/13; ≤0.1% water; TAN <0.5
1,000 Disassemble pump; replace seals, bearings, and gears (if worn >0.05 mm) N/A
B. Emergency Repair Protocol
1. Isolate Pump:
• Close suction/discharge valves; depressurize system (wait ≥10 minutes).
2. Seal Replacement:
• UseParker O-Ring Kit 2230-016(Viton material for high-temp applications).
• Torque mounting bolts to45–50 Nm(use torque-angle gauge).
3. Post-Repair Test:
• Run pump at 1,000 RPM; monitor case drain flow (should stabilize at ≤0.8 L/min).
