Ingersoll Rand's Thunder range of pumps for oil and grease lubricants features a stall-free air motor contained within a rugged housing that will withstand most working environments.
Overall, there are seven basic models four 3:1 ratio oil pumps and three 60:1 grease pumps; as well as a choice of seven pre-assembled packages. Oil pumps include a snub unit and models of 60L, 305L and 1000L capacities. Grease pumps come in capacities of 12-18kg, 50kg and 180kg.
Working flow in the two types of pump are 23L/min for oil compared to 1.1kg/min for grease. All models exhibit noise levels below 85db(A).
Ingersoll-Rand said: "Pumps have been constructed with 50 per cent fewer parts than the majority of comparable units; reducing service and routine maintenance requirements."
