The Flux Barrel Pump Kit for Petroleum Products is a ready to use drum fuel pump kit, supplied with the aluminium F430 pump, motor, universal hose, quick action tap and compression gland in PP. Design for transferring petroleum products up to 1000 cP from small containers, drums and IBCs, this electric barrel pump kit is typically used for pumping diesel oil, fuel oil, hydraulic oil, lube oil and engine oil. This barrel fuel transfer pump is supplied with mechanical seal, ensuring that the fluid does not come into contact with the pump shaft apart from a small area between the impeller and the seal. Thanks to mechanical sale the Flux drum pump kit is easy to dismantle for cleaning and it can be used for various applications.

Suitable to handle adhesive media, crystallizing or harden liquids, this Flux pump has light weighted design that is easy to mover around and offers simple maintenance. Flux Barrel Pump Kit for Petroleum Products comes with aluminium outer tube and is available with the F 457 230V commutator motor or the FEM 4070 230V commutator motor depending on your application requirements..

Features of the Petroleum Flux Drum Pump:

  • Comes complete with 2m of petroleum hose, quick action tap and compression gland in PP
  • Easy to operate
  • Suitable for transferring almost all non-flammable petroleum products as well as adhesive media and liquids that crystallize or harden
  • Unique impellor design enables excellent barrel emptying capabilities
  • Sealed inner tube, the liquid being pumped cannot enter the inner tube
  • Simple to dismantle for cleaning
  • Comes complete with either the F 457 230V commutator motor or the FEM 4070 230V commutator motor.

Thanks to versatile pump design this electric barrel pump can be used for range of applications involving transferring petroleum products from drum or IBC. This Flux pump benefits from range of features that offers efficient operation. Here are some of the key benefits you can get when using the acid transferring pump kit:

  • High-quality barrel pump – Flux drum pumps are well known German-made pumps that have been in the market for over 70 years.
  • Quickly disassembled for cleaning – This barrel fuel transfer pump can be quickly and easily taken apart for cleaning due to simple two-piece construction and screw-on foot piece.
  • Transferring multiple fluids- The Flux Barrel Pump Kit for Petroleum Products comes with a mechanic seal that protects the pump's inner tube against the pumped fluid, limiting the risk of cross-contamination.
  • Optimal barrel emptying – The unique impellor design of this drum fuel pump enables excellent barrel emptying capabilities

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.

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 Stainless Steel F400 models and Viscopower series with ATEX approved motors or Viscoflux Lite EX.

Our range includes both FDA and 3A approved hygienic models. When the viscosity is >1200cP we offer the sanitary Viscopower F570 and F580 models and the Viscoflux Mobile. 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.

To ensure you get the correct Flux spare parts, we need to identify the exact Flux pump model you have. Please provide the model and serial number found on the pump name plate.

Castle Pumps can supply all Flux pump parts detailed on the spare parts list including motor, o-ring, shaft seal, impeller, inner and outer tube worldwide.

If you are pumping one liquid or very similar liquids, you can use the F314 or F424 seal-less models provided that the materials are compatible, if you are pumping multiple diferent liquids or where cross contamination is not desirable use the F310 or F430 drum pumps.

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 Viscpower is required. Upon disclosure of your application, we can confirm the best solution.

All Flux barrel and IBC pump models are available with additional accessories that we can supply as a kit should you need delivery hose, a trigger nozzle, valves, flow meter and any other fittings.
