This Level Action Barrel Pump is a hand‑operated transfer pump designed to extract and dispense liquids from drums and barrels with controlled, splash‑free action. Its primary use is to transfer oils, lubricants, diesel, kerosene and other non‑aggressive fluids from 200-litre drums into smaller containers or equipment without the need for powered pumping equipment.

The pump has a chemical‑resistant polypropylene body with a polished stainless steel (AISI 304) dip tube and shaft for long service life and corrosion resistance. Seals are nitrile (NBR) as standard, giving good compatibility with mineral oils and most hydrocarbons; EPDM seal options are available where compatibility with water‑glycol fluids, antifreezes and some chemicals is required. The unit is hand‑operated using a lever/piston head and incorporates a one‑way valve for positive suction and drip‑free discharge. The pump is supplied to fit standard 2‑inch BSP drum bungs (compatibility with common British and European drum thread sizes), and the discharge nozzle is a 360° rotating spout for ease of use in confined workshop layouts.

Typical applications include automotive and vehicle workshops, plant maintenance, agricultural yards, small industrial plants and marine applications where manual, low‑volume transfer is required. The pump’s polypropylene construction resists corrosive attack by water and many chemicals, while the stainless internals maintain structural strength and reduce risk of contamination when handling lubricants and fuels.

Key benefits are dependable corrosion resistance from the polypropylene and AISI 304 stainless combination, reliable sealing for oils via nitrile seals, and broad compatibility with standard drum fittings (BSP). The manual lever action gives controlled flow without electricity, making it suitable for remote or safety‑sensitive locations and straightforward to maintain and clean between fluids.
