FAQ
Q What type of fluids can the 2000BS-5 pump handle?
It is designed for clean, non-abrasive lubricating fluids such as oils and compatible industrial liquids. Abrasive or solid-laden fluids should be avoided.
Q Is the Oberdorfer 2000BS-5 self-priming?
Yes, it is a self-priming rotary gear pump when properly installed and primed with compatible fluid.
Q Can this pump run continuously?
Yes, it is designed for continuous-duty industrial use when operated within rated speed and pressure limits.
Q What makes the bronze construction important?
Bronze offers strong corrosion resistance and durability, especially in lubricating and light industrial fluid environments.
Q Is this pump suitable for high-pressure applications?
It is intended for low-to-moderate pressure systems typical of small gear pump applications, not high-pressure hydraulic systems.
