SILENCE PLUS from Rexroth. The Next Generation of External Gear Pumps.

Quantum leap in noise reduction -- Rexroth introduces new low-noise external gear pump With their SILENCE PLUS Rexroth introduces a new generation of external gear pumps whose noise level has been reduced by an average of 15 dB(A) compared with a conventional external gear pump. The new pump is also characterized by a subjectively much more pleasant, deeper sound. The SILENCE PLUS is of special interest for use in applications with electric motor drives -- for example in fork lifts, lift platforms or industrial power units. Such drives then become significantly quieter in pressure ranges up to 280 bar. http://www.boschrexroth.com/SILENCE-PLUS
