Key Features of Pneumatic Oil Drum Pumps

✔ Explosion-Proof – Safe for flammable liquids (no electricity).
✔ High Flow Rates – Faster than manual pumps (e.g., 10–40 L/min).
✔ Durable Materials – Aluminum, SS316, or PTFE for chemical resistance.
✔ Low Maintenance – Fewer moving parts than electric pumps.
✔ Adjustable Pressure – Control flow with air pressure (typically 2–8 bar).


Common Applications

  • Petrochemical: Transferring diesel, kerosene, lubricants.

  • Aviation/Marine: Fuel handling in spark-sensitive environments.

  • Manufacturing: Hydraulic oil, coolant, and solvent transfer.

  • Agriculture: Pesticides, fertilizers, and biofuels.


Where to Buy?


How to Choose the Right Pump?
