Coolant Pumps
Coolant pumps are pumps used to circulate coolant fluids (coolants used primarily to lower engine heat). They have built-in motors and are used for machine tool coolant fluid supply, tank pumping, and supply to various filtration equipment. Coolant pumps are classified into self-priming and immersion types, each with different characteristics. Self-priming coolant pumps have the motor and pump in an integrated configuration, and feature a shape suitable for drill presses, lathes and other small machine tools. Immersion coolant pumps have a detached motor-pump configuration, and are often used with equipment such as milling machines and grinders. The pump is often made of cast iron, while the built-in motor needs to be made of durable materials.
