Anyone near Maryport fancy a big gear pump?

Comes with motor end of the coupling, just needs replacement motor.

Don't see gear pumps that size on eBay very often.

6000 l/m … that would take just over a second to fill my processor … don't think my reactions are quick enough to hit the stop switch in time!

first data plate says 1.1kw... that's not enough to shift that much?

second data plate says 21 cubic meters per hour, about 350litres/min... but also says 9.55kw (maybe 8.55?)

It is a "lube pump" so possibly designed for high flow but low pressure?

I did wonder if the flow rating was a mistake, or there was supposed to be a decimal point in there somewhere. The ports don't look anywhere big enough to pass 100 litres per second.
