Mini-Gear Oil Pump WVO Fuel Transfer biodiesel

Description: This pump was originally designed for pumping diesel fuel. It may be used for pumping oily liquids such as diesel, biodiesel, kerosene, and warm vegetable oil or cold vegetable oil if started up properly (see below). This pump works excellent for biodiesel processor applications. This pump can handle viscous fluids such as vegetable oil. When the oil is hot, the pump handles it without any problems. If the oil is cold, typically less than 70°, the pump may need a small jump start to get it running up to full speed. In order to do this, install a ball valve somewhere on the suction side of the pump. Close the ball valve and turn on the pump. Once the pump is up to full rotation (1 second or less) the ball valve can be opened and it will pump the oil with no problem. This may also be done by removing the suction line from a tank of oil. Allow the pump to suck air first to get up to speed, then dump the suction hose into the tank and it will suck the oil through easily. The pump has a high rotation rate, so if the pump starts with viscous fluid already in the lines, the pump will struggle to get up to speed and will use too many amps and overheat. Allowing the pump to get up to full speed prior to introducing thick fluids is recommended. Typically, this pump does not need any sort of assistance for fuel oils such as diesel fuel. The mini-gear pump is a pump attached to the motor by a shaft. The pump itself is all metal (metal gears) and can pump hot fluids without overheating the separate motor which is connected by a metal shaft coupling. The motor is high power and has thermal protection, which will automatically shut off the pump in case temperatures reach levels which risk overheating of the motor.
