Guide to Hand Pumps
Get the job done easily with the right industrial hand pumps for your business
Besides the economic benefits, the use of hand pumps, especially fuel hand pumps and chemical hand pumps, can prevent messes and save time. Hand pumps are used in agriculture, the automotive industry, factories and even homes to transfer liquids, prime pumps, dispense stored liquid products, and many other uses.
Here are the main parameters you should consider when purchasing industrial hand pumps:
1. Appropriate volume per stroke: Decide if you need a quart per stroke vs. gallon per stroke.
2. Applicability to liquid: Fuel, water and chemicals each require a different hand pump.
3. Make sure a hand operated vacuum pump has a connection type compatible with the product container.
Action Steps
The best contacts and resources to help you get it done
Save money by dispensing liquids from bulk containers
Many of the liquids used or sold in business and industrial settings are available in bulk containers, which gives you a chance to save money. Review the liquids you use and then research which among them are available in bulk. With a small investment in the appropriate industrial hand pumps, you can save hundreds or even thousands of dollars a year by dispensing from bulk containers into smaller applicators.
I recommend:
Service Distributing offers a wide range of name brand oil, grease and automatic transmission fluid (ATF) products. Some products and distributors require that you supply the bulk container, in which case you'll want to visit Patrick J. Kelly Drums, Inc..
Choose the right hand pumps
A gas hand pump is usually different than a hand chemical pump; and a pitcher pump is different from a typical hand operated vacuum pump. Get the appropriate pump for the job.
I recommend:
King Pumps categorizes their products well and will quickly point you in the right direction. Grainger, however, has a wider selection and provides details on each product, including applicable PH level (if appropriate).
Maintain your chemical, oil or fuel hand pump
An industrial hand pump often requires grease. Additionally, you may also need to clean your hand pump or event-adjust screws or moving parts. Your gas hand pump might work well this year, but you'll need to take care of it if you want it to work well next year. Read the manufacturer's care instructions. In almost all cases the maintenance will cost you nothing, but it will save you from replacing your hard working pumps. Keep in mind however, that a hand water pump must be greased with a lubricant safe for water supplies.
I recommend:
In the case that you do need to repair your hand pump, check out KI Pumps. While you're there, take a took at their accessories.
Tips & Tactics
Helpful advice for making the most of this Guide- If your deep well water supply relies on an electric pump, consider adding an auxiliary hand water pump to your system. You'll have access to water, even when the power goes down.
