Maximise Your Container Emptying With Our Electric Oil Drum Pumps
Do you have a process that involves emptying containers of oils that you wish to upscale? Or perhaps you're looking to reduce waste? Our electric oil barrel pump range have improved the productivity of many manufacturing applications and yours could be next! Suitable for low and high viscosity oils up to 100,000 cP including solid laden waste oils, we have oil drum pumps for almost any requirement. The beauty of the drum pump design is that they are easy to install, lightweight enough to be easily moved between drums and IBCs and do not require additional installation space. With models being able to empty 99.98% of the fluid to prevent expensive product waste and others being used to mix as well as transfer, your requirements are covered.

FAQs
Put most simply, a barrel pump, is a pump connected to an immersion tube that sits within the drum with its motor located outside of the container. The pump draws up the fluid through its immersion tube and is then dispensed via a hose or pipe that is connected to its outlet.
The general rule of thumb is that for low-medium duty applications where viscosity is <250cP the F300 is sufficient. For heavy duty applications, flammable liquids and viscosities of <1200cP choose the F400. For shear sensitive fluids or viscosities that exceed 1200cP then the Viscopower is required. Upon disclosure of your application, we can confirm the best solution.
If you have a 1000 litre IBC you will require a 1200mm tube, a 205 litre drum requires a 1000mm and if you have a smaller container 700mm and shorter tubes are available. For larger containers we can offer longer tube sets on specification
If your fluid is prone to crystallisation, then you can use the F310 or F430 models as the pump bearings are protected from wear.
The F425 model is capable of emptying 99.98% of a container's contents. This drum pump is generally selected when the liquid is particularly valuable to minimise waste.
The F426 model is capable of both mixing and pumping the liquid within the container, which is a lower cost solution when compared to a separate mixer and pump.
For liquids with a flashpoint below 50°C, we offer our Stainles Steel F400 models and Viscopower series with ATEX appproved motors.
Our range includes both FDA and 3A approved hygienic models. When the viscosity is >1200cP we offer the sanitary Viscopower F570 and F580 models. If <1200cP we typically select the F427, or the F430 food grade version when pumping alcohols or foodstuff with solids.
If you are pumping one liquid or very similar liquids, you can use the F314 or F424 seal-less models, if you are pumping multiple diferent liquids or where cross contamination is not desirable use the F310 or F430 drum pumps.
