Frequently Asked Questions:
Q. What is the purpose of a suction tube?
A. The suction tube securely transfer fluids from one place to another. It creates a vacuum by pulling air through it and draws up liquid for easy discharge.
Q. What is the function of a bung adaptor?
A. A bung adapter mounts the AODD (air-operated double diaphragm) pump to the bunghole of the drum.
Q. What is the meaning of 'self-priming'?
A. When the pump is located below the level of the liquid to be pumped, gravity and air pressure ensure that the pump is constantly filled with the liquid so that there is no ingress of air into the pump or suction life. This is necessary to start the pumping process and run smoothly for a continuous period.
Q. What is the maximum pressure these electric drum pumps can handle?
A. They can handle pressures up to 87 psi.
Q. Can this Dayton 4AYD6 pump be used for long-distance fluid transfer?
A. Yes, the pump is designed for high viscosity oils and can dispense fluids up to 50 meters away, offering flexibility in fluid transfer operations within industrial settings.
