AOP 55 - oil pump
The IBO AOP 55 oil pump is a self-priming positive-displacement vane pump powered by a single-phase 230 V supply. It is designed for transferring diesel, heating oil, and biodiesel, and is suitable for filling and emptying tanks and drums. The thermal protection in the motor winding and the bypass relief valve protect the pump during operation.
Who it's for
- Farms - the pump makes it easy to transfer diesel from drums and tanks to agricultural machinery.
- Transport companies - the device is suitable for refueling vehicles and transferring fuel between tanks.
- Industrial plants - stationary installation by a tank allows for regular, controlled dispensing of oil.
- Heating system users - the self-priming design makes it easier to fill heating oil tanks.
Applications
The AOP 55 pump is designed for transferring diesel, heating oil, biodiesel, and other lubricating liquids that do not corrode steel. It is used to fill and empty tanks, drums, and vehicle fuel tanks. Its 230 V mains supply makes it well suited to workshops and stationary refueling stations.
The device draws liquid from depths of up to 5 m, so it works with tanks positioned at different levels. The suction end must be fitted with a check valve and strainer, and the system must be primed with oil before first use. The AOP 55 230 V oil pump is a practical tool for everyday fuel handling in agriculture and industry.
AOP 55 pump features
The AOP 55 is a self-priming positive-displacement vane pump designed for pumping fuels and lubricating liquids. It is powered by a single-phase 230 V supply, and a thermal protector built into the winding protects it from overheating. The bypass relief valve protects the pump when discharge resistance is too high.
The pump is not designed for liquids that corrode steel, such as water, or for flammable and explosive liquids such as gasoline. The oil should be free of solid abrasive contaminants. Before starting, the suction pipe and the hydraulic section of the pump must be filled with oil.

Frequently asked questions (FAQ) – AOP 55 oil pump
What is the AOP 55 pump used for?
The IBO AOP 55 pump is designed to transfer diesel, heating oil, biodiesel, and other lubricating liquids. It is used to fill and empty tanks, barrels, and vehicle fuel tanks.
How does the AOP 55 differ from 12 V pumps?
The AOP 55 is powered by a 230 V single-phase supply, making it suitable for use in workshops and at stationary refueling stations. The OP versions, powered by 12 V direct current, are a mobile solution that runs on a battery-powered electrical system.
Which liquids must not be pumped with the AOP 55 pump?
The oil pump must not be used with liquids that corrode steel, especially water, as this will cause it to seize. Pumping flammable or explosive liquids, such as gasoline, is also prohibited.
How do I start the pump correctly after connecting it?
Before starting the pump for the first time, thoroughly prime the suction pipe and the hydraulic section of the pump with oil through the priming plug. Starting the pump without priming it with oil will cause it to run dry and damage the pumping components.
Where can I buy the AOP 55 pump?
As a manufacturer, we do not sell directly. The IBO AOP 55 oil pump can be purchased from our trade partners, plumbing and heating wholesalers, and authorized online distributors.
Where can I report a fault or submit a service request?
