In today's article, we are introducing a high performance product for the distribution of oil at car, motorcycle and truck repair shops.

 

The product in question is the FOIP automatic piston oil pump, a little gem offered by WORKY, which is designed to ensure maximum durability, performance, and operational flexibility. The product is available with a 3:1 compression ratio for mid-sized systems, and with a 5:1 ratio for medium to large systems, thus rendering the solution suitable for all system sizes.

By making use of appropriate suction tubes, the FOIP oil pump can be adapted to any type of container or tank currently available on the market, including 208 L drums and 1000 L IBC tanks, as well as other tanks of various sizes and capacities. Thanks to its flexibility and efficiency, the FOIP model has already been selected by many customer repair shops for oil distribution purposes.

The main strengths of the FOIP unit are the following:

  • Thermal monitoring capabilities: The FOIP oil pump is equipped with an integrated thermal expansion detection system n order to protect the pump and the system against any sudden pressure increases, which can result in damage or losses.
  • A durable structure free of any points of weakness: in addition to excellent efficiency and flexibility, the unit is also designed to ensure maximum durability. In fact, the FOIP oil pump boasts two major characteristics: firstly, all of the pump's internal components are self-lubricating, thus maximizing its durability and operating efficiency, while secondly, the pump's entire structure is made with high quality materials, including aluminium, stainless steel and Teflon, which guarantee excellent durability over time.

 

A more in-depth examination of the FOIP oil pump provides for a better understanding of its main technical features:

  • Maximum attainable pressure: the maximum pressure value reached with the 3:1 compression ratio version is 31 bar, while that of the 5:1 compression ratio version is 51 bar.
  • Pneumatic pressure range: from 1.37 bar to 10.3 bar
  • Maximum lubricant flow rate: these values also differ depending on the pump's compression ratio: the flow rate reaches 30 L/min on the 3:1 ratio version, and 25 L/min on the 5:1 ratio version.
  • Sound pressure level: 72.9 dB(a)

The above values show that the FOIP oil pump guarantees exceptional performance and durability, and this is just one of the many excellent products offered by WORKY!

The FWOIP model in question refers to the wall-mounted version, which comes equipped with a wall-mounting support bracket, and 2 m of flexible pipe to be connected to the intake nozzle, and is available in all the sizes necessary for the various fluid tank sizes.
