605-7488: Front Housing Water Pump

A Water Pump is a hydraulic machine that converts the mechanical energy of water into hydraulic energy using centrifugal force acting on the water. It consists of four main components: impeller, casing, suction pipe, and delivery pipe. The rotating action of the impeller is responsible for changing the energy of the continuously flowing water.

Attributes:
• Weight per unit discharge is less
• Large discharge at small and medium heads
• Can handle large quantities of water
• Runs at high speed and hence can be coupled to the prime mover

Applications:
A Water Pump is used in the Engine Cooling system, mostly used in Cat 986, 986H, 986K, and 988 Wheel Loader, C15 Engine-General Platform (C15), C18 Engine (Piston), C18 Engine-General Platform (C18), C18 Generator Set, C18 Power Systems.
