FAQs
Where is this fuel dispensing pump typically used?
This fuel dispensing pump by the Italian manufactured Piusi, is preferable choice by most fuel tank manufacturers due to its reliability. This diesel transfer pump is usually installed on static fuel storage tanks during tank manufacturing or retrofitted on existing tanks. Typically, the fuel transfer pump is used in non-resale refuelling environment as it is not weights and measures approved. The fuel dispensing pump is an ideal solution for the refuelling of fleets of vehicles, agricultural machinery as well as plant equipment.
Can I use the Panther pump for kerosene?
We frequently get asked this question and the answer is no! Kerosene has a lower flash point than diesel, which means there is a greater chance of a spark resulting in ignition during the pumping process. Like with petrol, pumps for kerosene therefore have to be ATEX approved, meaning that they are certified as being safe for use in potentially flammable environments.
I need a nozzle and flow meter, which is suitable for use with this diesel fuel transfer pump?
When picking a suitable nozzle and flow meter to go with your pump, you need to make sure they are compatible with the fluid you’re pumping and that it can cope with the flow rate your pump will be working at.
The Panther pump is a diesel transfer pump with a flow rate of 56lpm.
