Drive Technology

Micropump is the originator of magnetically driven gear pumps. All magnetically driven pumps eliminate the need for dynamic seals ensuring leak-free and reliable performance. The internal wetted magnet inside each pump is encapsulated to protect the pumpage from the magnet exposure and corrosion.

In addition to magnetic drive technology, Micropump offers their exclusive I-Drive® electromagnetic drive technology, plus cam or swash plate drive technology.

Configuration Options

To meet the needs of any customer, Micropump offers a wide variety of drive configurations to complement its line of pumps.

These drive configurations include:

  • AC
  • Shaded Pole, TEFC and Ventilated
  • Explosion Proof
  • Permanent Split Capacitor
  • DC
  • Brush Type
  • Brushless
  • Electromagnetic
  • Programmable Drives
  • Air Motors
  • Vane Type
  • Industrial Adapters
  • NEMA 56C to 145TC
  • IEC 56 to 80

Series GA and GJ pumps are available with the I-Drive® drive, which features the pump, motor and controller packaged into a compact integrated unit.

Features and Benefits

PM (Permanent Magnet) DC

  • Performance in a compact size
  • Replaces wound field with ceramic PMs for smaller overall dimensions
  • High torque at low speeds; high starting torque available
  • Linear speed/torque curve and electronic control ideal for adjustable speed applications
  • Reversibility (simple change in polarity)
  • Simple, reliable, efficient design

BLDC (Brushless)

  • Replaces the CG brushes typical in PM motor technology with electronically commutated motors for longer life
  • Constant torque characteristics despite speed changes (stiffness)
  • Continuous duty service

Stepper DC

  • Usable in open loop mode; maintains features of a feedback system
  • Noncummulative nature of stepper error provides improved accuracy
  • Consistent performance ideal for metering/dosing and dispensing applications

Universal AC/DC (Series Wound)

  • Speeds > 3600 rpm for single phase AC
  • Variable speed wl load
  • High starting torque
  • Either AC/DC power source

Shaded Pole, AC

  • Simple, rugged design and construction
  • Low cost
  • No internal switches or brushes for high dependability
  • Quiet and vibration-free
  • Constant speed device with varying torque loads

PSC (Permanent Split Capacitor) AC

  • High starting torque
  • Low start current for longer life and greater reliability
  • Quiet operation
