This Action Pump 219 hand-operated rotary pump has a body and tubes made of 304 stainless steel for resistance to chemicals and corrosion, and is suitable for dispensing or transferring chemicals in a wide variety of applications. It is capable of dispensing 10 gallons per minute (gpm) at 135 revolutions per minute (rpm) of its hand-operated rotary lever. Its PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) seal resists chemicals. This rotary drum pump has a 1" female National Pipe Taper (NPT) threaded suction port and a 3/4" Unified Fine (UNF) threaded discharge port. It is suitable for chemical dispensing or transferring chemicals in industrial or commercial applications that make use of 15, 20, and 55 gallon chemical drums. Specifications Pump Rotary drum pump Materials 304 stainless steel body and tubes; PTFE seal Flow rate 10 gpm at 135 rpm Suction port 1" female NPT Discharge port 3/4" female UNF Maximum temperature 140 degrees F Maximum liquid viscosity 5,000 SSU For use with 15, 20, and 55 gallon drums Weight 13 lb. Dimensions Overall length: 53"; Suction hose: 40" 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.
