Barrel Pumps

Need a fast, safe way to move tough fluids from barrels without leaks or spills? Our Barrel Pumps shift chemicals, oils, and solvents with steady flow and clean transfer using the right motor, tube, and seal for your job.

Flow Rate Range

10 L/min to 250 L/min (2.6 GPM to 66 GPM) – Adjustable via speed control

Pressure/Head Capacity

Up to 3 bar (43 psi) – Suction lift up to 4 m (13 ft)

Power Requirements

0.1 kW to 1.5 kW (0.13 HP to 2 HP) – 110V/230V, 50/60Hz, pneumatic options

Materials of Construction

Pump Head: PP, PVDF, SS 316, Aluminum Dip Tube: SS 304, PTFE, Conductive PE

Fluid Compatibility

Chemicals, Solvents, Oils, Aggressive Liquids – Material-dependent

Product Description

Other setups fail with thick or reactive liquids, risking waste or downtime. We give adjustable flow up to 250 L/min, ATEX safety, and full fit with most barrel threads.

Temperature Range

-20°C to 120°C (-4°F to 248°F) – Higher temps with specialty materials

Connection Types & Sizes

1″ BSP/NPT, Tri-Clamp (sanitary), Drum Thread (2″) – Hose barb options

Mounting Configuration

Drum-Mounted (Clamp/Lid), Portable Cart, or Fixed Stand

Seal System

Sealless (Magnetic Drive) or Mechanical Seal – Leak-proof designs

Efficiency Rating

70% to 85%

NPSH Required

Self-priming – Typically primes in <1 minute

Speed Range

500 RPM to 3,000 RPM – Variable speed for dosing control

Solids Handling Capability

max 100 µm particles – Not for slurries

Certifications & Standards

ATEX, FDA, USP Class VI – Compliant for chemical, pharma, and food industries

Operating Noise Level

< 65 dB(A) – Quiet operation (varies with motor type)

Coupling System

Direct Drive (Motor) or Hand Operated – No coupling for compact designs

Technical Advantages

Our pumps run at 500 to 3,000 RPM and adjust flow or dosing with speed control. You can choose PP, PVDF, SS316, or aluminum pump heads based on your chemical needs.

Mount them on a drum, fixed stand, or cart – all setups stay leak-tight with the right seals. They self-prime in under a minute and stay quiet below 65 dB(A), even under load.

Industry Applications

Chemical Processing

Pumps acids, alkalis, and solvents safely from drums with sealed flow.

Paint and Coating Plants

Moves thick fluids like resins and base paints without clogging.

Pharmaceutical Units

Handles cleanroom transfers with FDA and USP Class VI contact parts.

Food and Beverage Plants

Moves syrups, flavoring agents, and oils with sanitary fittings.

Metalworking and Lubricant Lines

Transfers gear oils, cutting fluids, and coolants in batches.

Battery and Electronics Plants

Pumps high-purity chemicals or acids using corrosion-free wetted parts.

Configured Pumping for Drum-Based Workflows

Standard pumps often mismatch with drum types, harsh fluids, or safety limits. We provide direct drive or pneumatic models from 0.1 to 1.5 kW to match your duty cycle.
With options like magnetic drive or mechanical seals, our builds stay safe and spill-free. Each unit ships ready to fit your drum threads, hose sizes, or process needs without rebuild.

Having Doubts? Our FAQ

Check all our Frequently Asked Question

Can we choose the material of the barrel pumps head based on the liquid we use?

Yes, we offer barrel pumps heads in PP, PVDF, SS 316, or aluminum based on fluid compatibility. You can match them to acids, solvents, or flammable liquids as needed. Material options are finalized after we review your fluid datasheet.

What mounting types can you provide for different plant setups?

We can configure the barrel pumps for drum-top clamp, sealed lid mount, cart-based mobility, or fixed frame support. Each setup works with your drum height and operator safety needs. We confirm details during the pre-order technical review.

Is the flow rate fixed or can we adjust it during use?

We supply motors with variable speed drives that let you adjust flow from 10 to 250 L/min. This helps in dosing, filling, or batch transfer tasks without manual throttling. We also help size the motor range before dispatch.

How do you match the seal type to our fluid and safety requirement?

You can select between magnetic drive (sealless) or mechanical seal based on leak risk and fluid aggressiveness. We verify this choice with your MSDS and operating temperature. The seal system is quoted based on your site usage and risk tolerance.

Can we request plug type, voltage, or air supply details for site compatibility?

Yes, we match motor specs to your plant voltage, 110V or 230V and offer pneumatic versions where needed. Plug type, phase, and control type are confirmed before order. We also share current draw and safety ratings in the tech sheet.
