Scavenge Pumps

AeroForce Scavenger Pumps

The scavenger pump is used to remove and manage unwanted fluids, typically oil, from the engine or other parts of the aircraft system. Its primary role is to ensure that these fluids do not accumulate and cause operational issues or damage. AeroForce scavenger pumps efficiently return oil from the turbocharger center housing back to the engine crankcase for a continuous cycle of fresh lubrication!

Oil Removal: The scavenger pump helps remove oil that has lubricated the turbocharger bearings. After the oil has circulated through the turbocharger and lubricated its components, it can become contaminated with debris or heat. The scavenger pump ensures this used oil is efficiently removed from the turbocharger system.

Prevention of Oil Accumulation: By removing the used oil, the scavenger pump prevents oil from accumulating in areas where it might cause issues, such as in the turbocharger bearings or the associated oil passages.

Maintaining Proper Oil Flow: The scavenger pump helps maintain the correct flow of oil throughout the turbocharger system, ensuring that the bearings receive proper lubrication and cooling. This helps prevent overheating and premature wear of the turbocharger components.

System Efficiency: Effective oil management contributes to the overall efficiency and performance of the turbocharger system. By keeping the oil clean and circulating properly, the scavenger pump helps the turbocharger function optimally.
