OP 70 – Oil Pump
The IBO OP 70 oil pump is a self-priming, positive-displacement vane pump powered by direct current from a battery system. It is designed for transferring diesel fuel, heating oil, and biodiesel. With a power rating of 550 W and a head of up to 20 m, it is the most powerful 12 V pump in the series. Thermal protection in the motor winding and a bypass relief valve protect the pump during operation.
Who is it for?
- Transport companies – battery power allows fuel to be transferred directly from a vehicle or trailer.
- Farms – the pump enables machinery to be refueled in the field without access to a 230 V power supply.
- Mobile service companies and field stations – the more powerful 12 V motor is suitable for more intensive fuel transfer in the field.
- Fuel tank users – the self-priming design allows convenient emptying and filling of oil tanks.
Applications
The OP 70 pump is designed for transferring diesel fuel, heating oil, biodiesel, and other liquids with lubricating properties that do not cause steel corrosion. It is used for filling and emptying tanks, drums, and vehicle fuel tanks. Its direct-current power supply makes it a mobile solution ready to operate beyond the reach of the mains power grid.
The device can draw liquid from a depth of up to 5 m, making it suitable for transferring fuel between tanks positioned at different levels. The suction end should be fitted with a check valve with a strainer, and the system must be filled with oil before its first start-up. The OP 70 oil pump is an efficient tool for mobile fuel handling in transport and agriculture.
Features of the OP 70 pump
The OP 70 is a self-priming, positive-displacement vane pump designed for pumping fuels and liquids with lubricating properties. The motor is powered by direct current from a battery system, while built-in thermal protection in 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 cause steel corrosion, such as water, or for flammable and explosive liquids such as gasoline. The oil should be free of abrasive solid contaminants. Before start-up, the suction pipe and the hydraulic section of the pump must be filled with oil. When connecting the cables to the battery, the correct polarity must be observed.

Frequently asked questions (FAQ) – OP 70 oil pump
What is the OP 70 pump used for?
The IBO OP 70 pump is designed for transferring diesel fuel, heating oil, biodiesel, and other liquids with lubricating properties. It is used for filling and emptying tanks, drums, and vehicle fuel tanks.
How does the OP 70 differ from the OP 40 pump?
The OP 70 has a more powerful motor and a higher head than the OP 40, while remaining a mobile pump powered by direct current. It is designed for more intensive fuel transfer in the field.
Which liquids must not be pumped with the OP 70 pump?
The oil pump must not be used for liquids that cause steel corrosion, especially water, as this may lead to the pump becoming blocked. Pumping flammable and explosive liquids such as gasoline is also prohibited.
How should the pump be started correctly after connection?
Before the first start-up, the suction pipe and the hydraulic section of the pump must be thoroughly filled with oil through the filling plug. The cables must be connected to the battery according to the marked polarity. Starting the pump without filling it with oil will cause dry running and damage to the pumping components.
How should the OP 70 pump be maintained to ensure its durability?
The suction strainer that traps solid contaminants should be checked and cleaned periodically, and the pump should always operate with clean oil. After use, store the device in a dry place protected from frost.
Where can the OP 70 pump be purchased?
As the manufacturer, we do not sell directly. The IBO OP 70 oil pump can be purchased from our commercial partners, installation wholesalers, and authorized online distributors.
