Fill-Rite 20 GPM 12V DC High Flow Pump

Description

Refuel excavation equipment, service trucks, and farm tractors on remote jobsites. The Fill-Rite 20 GPM 12V DC High flow fuel transfer pump delivers rapid field replenishment. A continuous-duty 12-volt DC motor drives an industrial rotary vane pump. Fuel flow rates dip when truck battery banks drop below 11.5 volts under cold winter weather.

Heavy cast-iron forms the rugged pump housing, protected by weather-resistant red powder coating. Bronze rotor vanes rotate inside a precision-machined iron cavity to move petroleum products with minimal friction. The explosion-proof 0.33-horsepower DC motor features sealed ball bearings for extended mechanical life. A built-in thermal overload protector stops motor burnout during prolonged refueling runs. Threaded 2-inch base fittings mount to tanks.

Mobile DC Fuel Hardware Specs

Fleet mechanics refuel bulldozers on remote jobsites without utility power drops. The high-flow DC motor connects straight to vehicle battery systems for fast fuel transfer.

• Permanent-magnet 12-volt DC motor delivers steady power from mobile equipment batteries
• Rotary vane pumping mechanism produces 20 GPM for fast equipment tank replenishment
• Cast-iron pump housing resists severe weather rust and heavy worksite impacts
• Internal pressure bypass valve stops fluid dead-head overpressure when nozzles shut
• Thermal overload protector shuts off DC power before motor field coils overheat
• Heavy 18-foot dispensing hose withstands abrasion wear across rocky jobsite gravel
• Manual bronze dispensing nozzle with hook allows controlled fuel flow into tanks

DC Dyno Flow Bench Data

Bench testing demonstrates the motor draws 28 Amps across 12-volt DC lines under full 20 GPM diesel flow. Operating pressure stabilizes at 18 PSI across an 18-foot discharge hose. Motor casing temperature reaches 142°F after 30 minutes of continuous fuel dispensing. Sound meters record 75 dBA at 1 meter distance from the pump body.

Field Application Operator Boundaries

You wire this pump to service truck batteries using the included heavy copper power cable. The integrated nozzle boot protects the dispensing tip from road dirt during transit. Do not run this pump dry for longer than 3 minutes. Dry running without fuel lubrication scores the bronze vanes and ruins pump vacuum.

• Inspect the internal wire strainer screen for rust flakes every 30 days
• Check the DC battery cable clamps for corrosion and tight terminal contact
• Ground the transfer tank to vehicle chassis steel to stop static sparks
