This Action Pump 3000 hand-operated lever action pump is made with a powder coated steel body with a die cast aluminum pump head and a die cast zinc piston, has a flow rate of 10 oz. per stroke, and is suitable for dispensing viscous liquids such as oils and 100% antifreeze. It has a 3/4' outlet port, and comes with a 34' suction tube, a 1-1/2' bung adapter, and a 2' bung adapter. This lever drum pump is suitable for use with 15, 30, and 55 gallon drums in a wide range of industrial and commercial applications.SpecificationsPumpPiston drum pump, lever actionMaterialsPowder coated steel, die case aluminum, die cast zincFlow rate10 oz. per strokeDischarge port3/4'Maximum temperature140 degrees FMaximum liquid viscositySAE 60For use with15, 30, and 55 gallon drumsWeight6 lb.DimensionsOverall length: 50'; Suction hose: 34'Pumps use mechanical action to move liquids, gases, or slurries (solids suspended in a liquid or gas). The mechanical action is categorized as either positive displacement (PD) or kinetic. PD pumps capture and release discrete amounts of flow into a chamber and then force it out. Some examples of PD pumps are fuel and oil pumps in cars, pumps in hydraulic systems, and bicycle pumps. Kinetic pumps move liquids, gases, or slurries by transferring energy from the pump's movement to the flow. They use an impeller to draw the flow in, add energy to the flow, and move it through a volute (a spiral funnel through which the flow moves), and into the system. Some examples of kinetic pumps include centrifugal (the most common pump in industrial applications), in-line pumps, sump pumps, and suction pumps. Energy sources for all types of pumps include wind power, manual operation, electricity, and gasoline or diesel fuel.Action Pump manufactures drum and pail pumps and grease, oil, and lubrication products. The company, founded in 1981, is headquartered in Cary, IL.What's in the Box?3000 piston drum pump34' suction hose2' bung adapter1-1/2' bung adapter
