Dayton 4AYD6 air-operated drum pump is designed to dispense and transfer moderate to large volumes of fluids, including diesel fuel, coolant, washer fluid, power steering fluid, transmission fluid and engine oil.
Features:
- It features a reciprocating air motor design that is capable of pumping liquids at a rate of 4.76 GPM and transferring them over short & long distances (up to 50 m).
- Dayton drum pump is available in steel, aluminium & brass housing having nitrile, polyurethane & Turcite seals to handle a variety of liquids easily and provide excellent corrosion resistance.
- It is capable of dispensing oil at five times the pressure of the air inlet, thus making them ideal for automotive and fleet maintenance operations for draining fuel tanks and removing spent fluids from vehicles & engine-powered machinery.
- It allows more accurate flow control than electric pumps and higher flow rates than conventional hand drum pumps.

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.
