Description
Refuel excavation equipment, service trucks, and farm tractors with exact fluid tracking. The Fill-Rite Fuel Pump 12VDC Inline Digital turbine meter package provides mobile refueling with commercial measuring accuracy. A 12-volt DC continuous-duty motor turns a rotary vane pump. Fuel flow drops when operating from truck batteries registering below 11.8 volts under heavy cranking loads.
Cast-iron forms the rugged pump body, coated in weather-resistant red powder paint. Bronze rotor vanes sweep within the machined iron pumping cavity to push fuel efficiently. An electronic turbine meter houses stainless steel bearings within an aluminum body to track fluid totals. A 2-inch threaded base mounts straight onto mobile fuel transfer tanks. Thermal overload protection prevents motor burnout.
Mobile DC Metering Hardware Specs
Fleet mechanics refuel equipment on remote jobsites while logging gallons dispensed for tax records. The high-flow DC motor hooks straight to vehicle battery systems for fast fuel transfer.
- Permanent-magnet 12-volt DC motor delivers steady power from mobile equipment batteries
- Rotary vane pumping mechanism produces 15 GPM for fast equipment tank replenishment
- Inline digital turbine meter measures fuel volume with 1-percent metering accuracy
- Cast-iron pump housing resists severe weather rust and heavy worksite impacts
- Internal pressure bypass valve stops fluid dead-head overpressure when nozzles shut
- Heavy 12-foot dispensing hose withstands abrasion wear across rocky jobsite gravel
- Manual bronze dispensing nozzle with hook allows controlled fuel flow into tanks
DC Dyno Flow Bench Data
Bench testing demonstrates the motor draws 22 Amps across 12-volt DC lines under full 15 GPM diesel flow. Operating pressure stabilizes at 16 PSI across the 12-foot discharge hose. Motor casing temperature reaches 138°F after 30 minutes of continuous fuel dispensing. Sound meters record 74 dBA at 1 meter distance from the pump body.
Field Application Operator Boundaries
You wire this pump to service truck batteries using the included heavy copper power cable. The digital meter screen displays batch and lifetime totals clearly in direct sunlight. Do not run this pump dry for longer than 3 minutes. Dry running without fuel lubrication scores the bronze vanes and degrades fluid suction power.
- Inspect the inline wire strainer for tank rust particles every 30 days
- Calibrate the digital turbine meter when switching between gasoline and diesel
- Ground the transfer tank to vehicle chassis steel to stop static sparks
Commercial Warranty Specifications Manifest
Fill-Rite backs this fuel pump with a 2-Year limited manufacturer warranty. The factory package contains the 12VDC pump, digital turbine meter, 12-foot fuel hose, manual nozzle, 18-foot power cable, telescoping suction pipe, and installation guide.
