155-8602: Steering Metering Pump

The Steering metering pump is a component in the power steering systems of vehicles. It plays a vital role in controlling and regulating the hydraulic pressure and flow of power steering fluid to assist with steering maneuverability. The pump is driven by the vehicle's engine, either directly or indirectly through a belt or pulley system. Its function is to supply pressurized power steering fluid to the steering gear or rack, which translates the driver's input into the necessary mechanical force to steer the vehicle. Attributes: • Rated Flow Capacity: 8-16GPM(30-60)LPM • Displacement: 28.20 CU. IN/REV (462.1 cm3/REV) • Rated System Pressure: 2500PSI (172 BAR) • Rated Return Pressure: 300PSI (21 BAR) Applications: The Steering metering pumps are widely used in power steering systems of automobiles. They regulate the flow of hydraulic fluid based on the steering input from the driver, providing the necessary power assistance for smooth and effortless steering control. The pump adjusts its displacement according to the steering load, ensuring optimal fluid flow and pressure.
