A method stabilizes the temperature in a gear pump lubricated with material to be delivered. At least one housing part has at least two slide bearings in which shafts are mounted and are lubricated by medium to be delivered. A medium is adjusted in a temperature stabilizer to a predetermined temperature and then flows firstly through the housing part and secondly through shafts and/or slide bearings to stabilize the temperature.

Method and apparatus for temperature stabilization in gear pumps

Method and apparatus for on-site cleaning of a gear pump by coupling the gear pump outlet to the gear pump inlet and to the inlet end of the passage and which bypasses the bearing and is preferably controlled by a valve element which can block off the bypass in normal operation and be opened for a cleaning operation to increase the pressure on the side of the bearing connected to the inlet and thereby increase the velocity of the flushing stream.
