Milton 5:1 Premium Series Pump Kit IBC with Suction Tube

Description

Harness plant compressed air to dispense thick industrial gear oils using the Milton 5:1 Premium Series Pump Kit with suction tube. The double-acting air motor draws viscous lubricants from 275-gallon and 330-gallon totes, though unheated winter shops will experience reduced flow rates through extended delivery plumbing runs.

Die-cast aluminum houses the high-pressure pneumatic drive motor while cold-drawn alloy steel forms the lower fluid cylinder. Designed to run on 70 PSI to 145 PSI compressed air, the 5:1 pressure ratio generates up to 725 PSI fluid output. The unboxed pump kit weighs 42 lbs, establishing an IBC stance measuring 16in wide by 22in deep. Polyurethane dynamic seals stop internal fluid bypass during heavy duty cycles.

Key Features of Milton ZE1730PK-IBC

Industrial plants buy Milton ZE1730PK-IBC equipment to evacuate bulk totes into centralized lubrication networks at competitive equipment pricing. The unit handles gear oils, heavy engine lubricants, and hydraulic fluids.

• A 5:1 fluid pressure ratio outputs up to 4.7 GPM through extensive plant distribution piping.
• The rigid steel suction down-tube reaches 41in downward to drain tote sumps.
• Standard 2in bung adapter collars lock the assembly into IBC top port threads.
• A heavy steel mounting bracket hooks over tote cage tubes to stop vibration movement.
• The 1/4in NPT air inlet includes internal filtration to stop airline debris ingestion.
• A 1/2in NPT fluid discharge port connects directly to shop hard lines or hose reels.
• Self-priming foot check valves hold line prime between intermittent dispensing operations.

Bench Tested Pressure Flow Parameters

Flow bench evaluations using SAE 90 oil establish 4.2 GPM open discharge flow at 100 PSI compressed air supply. The fluid cylinder holds 720 PSI deadhead pressure without seal weeping. Operating sound output measures 75 dB at operator ear height during continuous pumping strokes. Air shuttle spool valves shift without hesitation down to 25 PSI supply pressure. Motor body temperature drops 5°F during full 275-gallon transfer cycles, showing clean exhaust airflow without internal valve icing.

Shop Handling Maintenance Protocol

The fluid isolation lever turns with 6 lbs force to permit immediate line shutoff during maintenance. Do not buy this pump for water solutions, corrosive acids, or volatile fuel products.

• Inject 5 drops of ISO 32 air lubricant into the air inlet port every 40 hours of use.
• Clean the suction tube intake foot valve screen every 30 days to stop pump cavitation.
• Torque the IBC cage mounting bracket hardware to 30 ft-lbs every 6 months.
