Oil pumps are electric PO type pumps used to pump diesel or heating oil. They can also be used to pump media with similar physical and chemical parameters, including biodiesel. They can be used to handle oily liquids that will not cause corrosion on the steel body and will not exceed the permissible temperature. Oil pumps are used in households, as well as in industry and agriculture.
Oil pumps. The most important parameters
Oil pumps are electrical devices that are most often powered by single-phase alternating current 230V/50Hz. An alternative are pumps designed to be powered by direct current from a 12V car battery - such pumps can usually be purchased with terminals. Oil pumps are equipped with a by-pass overflow valve and a particulate filter. Oil pumps are self-priming and can be installed both permanently and temporarily. Oil pumps are most often a rotary, vane model. Positive displacement and gear pumps are also available on the market. The devices are mobile and can be easily transported from one place to another because of their compact dimensions. Oil pumps should be equipped with an automatic flow cut-off system and a flow counter with an accuracy of at least ± 1%.
Oil pumps are equipped with a discharge hose and a suction hose with a non-return valve, made of oil-resistant rubber. Remember that the size of the pump connector must be adapted to the size of the tank inlet. The most popular ones are 1". The oil pump must be constructed and used in such a way that no water contamination or any other damage to the environment occurs. It must meet occupational health and safety requirements and EU directives.
Oil pumps. Universal use
Oil pumps are widely used in households, agriculture and various industries. They are perfect for pumping liquids from barrels and tanks. The pump body is most often made of cast iron and the impeller is made of steel. AfterOil pumps differ from each other in terms of maximum lifting expressed in meters, engine power and maximum efficiency given in l/min. The universal 230V oil pump model with a lifting distance of 30 meters is available in a capacity variant of 60l/min and 370W or 80l/min and 750W. Remember that oil pumps cannot handle flammable liquids and cannot operate in an explosive environment - pumping gasoline, for example, is unacceptable.
Oil pumps are designed to pump liquids of all viscosity grades. Such devices are also useful in irrigation and drainage, as well as in heating, air conditioning and fire protection installations. and water supplies. Oil pumps are extremely durable and economical in operation, and easy to operate and maintain.
