Drum Pumps to Dispense from your 55-Gallon Drum
Barrel Pumps

Morse Model 26 Drum Hand Pump
Morse 27 and 28 Series 55-Gallon Hand Drum Pumps

Double-action piston drum pumps are self priming, delivering on both the forward and the back stroke. It takes less than 5 cycles to yield a gallon (3.8 liters).

Each Morse 26, 27, 28 Series 55-gallon hand pumps and Pump or Barrel Pump is made in the same style and has the same action. Morse drum hand pumps and barrel pumps vary only in their materials of construction, consisting of specific polymers and elastomers for resistance to certain types of chemicals (please refer to the drum pump chart below).

Morse hand drum pumps

Morse 55-gallon hand drum and barrel pumps provide a controlled discharge rate of approximately 1 quart on complete forward and backward cycle at 10 psi over 24 feet. They fit the NPT (National Pipe Thread) of the 2" bung on 55-gallon steel drum. Adaptors are available to use Morse 55-gallon barrel pumps with the buttress thread of the 2" bung on your plastic barrels.  

• Suction Lift tested for 15 feet minimum

• Discharge head up to 25 feet

• Output head pressure is up to 10.83 psi

• 1" NPT suction tube

• 3/4" NPT discharge tube

• Two position drum pump handle

  • Handle can be mounted above the drum hand pump extending 20.5" above the bung when upright.

  • Mount handle below the drum hand pump for easier operation from below with the drum on a truck or platform.

• Self-lubricating teflon piston ring operates wet or dry for long life

• Chemically compatible with liquids up to 120° F (49° C)

• Handle viscosity up to 2,000 SSU (about as thick as 30 weight motor oil at room temperature). Handle effort increases as viscosity approaches this maximum.

• 27 Series and Model 26 drum pumps are generally useful with compatible liquids in a mild acidity/alkalinity range of pH 4 to 9. Avoid stronger acids and caustics.

• 28 Series drum pumps are useful in a wider pH range.

• Many other chemical characteristics effect choice of barrel pump (see drum pump chart below or chemical compatibility for specific fluids)

~ ~ CAUTION ~ ~

• Chemical compatibility of a drum or barrel pump should be checked for EACH LIQUID BY CHEMICAL NAME

  • No single drum pump can be universally chemical resistant

  • Barrel pumps available include flammable drum pump and oil drum pump

• Some blends of chemicals may not be suitable for any of these drum pumps

• Different barrel pump models may be necessary for various liquids

• Final determination of suitability for use intended, or manner of use, is responsibility of the user. Consult Morse for advice on the correct barrel pump for specific liquids. Please furnish chemical names.

• Chemicals may be hazardous. It is the user's responsibility to take appropriate safety and protective measures.
