Action Pump ACT-DEF DEF (Diesel Exhaust Fluid) Rotary Pump, Fits 15-55 Gallon Barrels

This Action Pump ACT-DEF hand-operated rotary drum pump is constructed with a Ryton (PPS, polyphenylene sulfide) body for high-temperature rigidity and resistance to chemicals and flame and PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) seal for resistance to chemicals, and is suitable for dispensing diesel exhaust fluid. This pump delivers 8 gallons of fluid per minute (gpm) and has three vanes for faster priming than two-vane pumps. This rotary drum pump is suitable for industrial applications requiring the transfer of diesel exhaust fluid for urea tanks in large diesel vehicles.SpecificationsPumpRotary drum pump, hand-operatedMaterialsRyton body, PTFE sealFlow rate8 gpmDischarge spout1"Maximum temperature140 degrees FFor use with15, 30, or 55 gallon drumsWeight4 lb.DimensionsOverall length: 51-1/2"; Suction tube: 34"Pumps use mechanical action to move liquids, gases, or slurries (solids suspended in a liquid or gas). The mechanical action is categorized as either positive displacement (PD) or kinetic. PD pumps capture and release discrete amounts of flow into a chamber and then force it out. Some examples of PD pumps are fuel and oil pumps in cars, pumps in hydraulic systems, and bicycle pumps. Kinetic pumps move liquids, gases, or slurries by transferring energy from the pump's movement to the flow. They use an impeller to draw the flow in, add energy to the flow, and move it through a volute (a spiral funnel through which the flow moves), and into the system. Some examples of kinetic pumps include centrifugal (the most common pump in industrial applications), in-line pumps, sump pumps, and suction pumps. Energy sources for all types of pumps include wind power, manual operation, electricity, and gasoline or diesel fuel.Action Pump manufactures drum and pail pumps and grease, oil, and lubrication products. The company, founded in 1981, is headquartered in Cary, IL.What's in the Box?ACT-DEF rotary drum pumpDischarge spout34" suction tube assembly2" bung adapter
