Selectable-Flow-Rate Easy-Stroke Drum Pumps for Water and Chemicals

These pumps have a selectable flow rate, so you can adjust flow for different dispensing applications. A lever handle maximizes output with each stroke for low-effort dispensing.
Whenever working with flammable liquids, always bond and ground your application for static control. For more information about bonding and grounding, see Sections 1910.106 and 1910.107 of the Federal OSHA Code or see bonding and grounding equipment.

Drum Pumps for Fuel and Flammable Liquid

All of these pumps have bonding and grounding wires, while some also have an internal flame arrester, to pump fuel, cleaning solvents, and lacquer thinners.
Always bond and ground your application for static control. For more information about bonding and grounding, see Sections 1910.106 and 1910.107 of the Federal OSHA Code or see bonding and grounding equipment.
Steel pumps work with fuels and flammable liquids, but not especially aggressive and corrosive chemicals.
Stainless steel pumps handle aggressive and corrosive liquids that steel pumps cannot.
Pumps for 5-gallon containers have a drum connector that fits Rieke flex spouts and two screw cap adapters: 1 3/4" and 2 1/8".
Repair kits include components such as extension tubes, gaskets, and pistons.

Siphon Drum Pumps
Since these pumps use suction to draw liquid out of your container, they continue dispensing once you get them started. They're often used with coolant and water.

Air-Powered Drum Pumps for Flammable Liquid

These pumps have a motor that is rated for IEC Zone 1, Groups IIB and IIA; and IEC Zone 21, Groups IIIC, IIIB, and IIIA hazardous locations with flammable gases and vapors, so they can be used with liquids such as acetone, ethanol, methyl ethyl ketone (MEK), xylene, and mineral spirits. Motor is nonsparking for use in applications where electricity is unavailable or dangerous. Install an air line filter/lubricator to ensure efficiency and reduce wear on the pump.
Always bond and ground your application for static control. For more information about bonding and grounding, see Sections 1910.106 and 1910.107 of the Federal OSHA Code or see bonding and grounding equipment.
