Finish Thompson DEFP004 DEF Drum Pump 48 Inch
This is the Finish Thompson DEF drum pump in the 48 inch tube length, constructed in polypropylene and 316 stainless steel. It is supplied as the pump tube and is driven by a matched Finish Thompson motor. This is the build intended for diesel exhaust fluid, where the wetted parts have to stay clean and uncontaminated because DEF is ruined by traces of almost anything else.
A drum pump earns its keep by removing the tip and pour from the job. Keep the tube flushed after use, fit a strainer where sediment is likely, and match the hose and nozzle to the fluid, because most drum pump failures start with something drawn off the bottom of the container.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What happens if the pump is run dry?
The bearings are lubricated by the fluid being pumped, so dry running wears them quickly and can seize the shaft.
Q: Does the pump need a bung adapter?
It does if the container is to hold the pump upright, and the adapter also limits fumes escaping around the tube.
Q: How should the pump be flushed?
With a fluid compatible with both the product and the pump materials, run long enough to clear the full length of the tube.
Q: Is a strainer recommended?
Wherever sediment may have settled in the container, since debris reaching the impeller is the most common avoidable failure.
