Description
Overview
The ExBlue 12V is an explosion-proof DC transfer pump that moves about 180 L/min of diesel, light oil, paraffin or petrol. It runs from a 12V battery, so you can fit it to a bakkie, a trailer bowser or a mobile fuel tank where there is no mains. The 50 mm ports take full-size hose for fast offloading.
Need a 24V truck system instead? See the ExBlue 24V explosion-proof pump. If you want a complete skid, the Cube-Smart 220V fuel pump kit comes ready to plumb. The whole fuel transfer pumps category is worth a look.
Key features
- Explosion-proof construction for fuels that give off vapour
- 180 L/min rated flow
- Head of 10 to 15 m, suction lift of 2 m
- Framed unit that is easy to bolt down or carry

Where it works
Mines in Mpumalanga and the Northern Cape fill haul trucks and generators from mobile bowsers with pumps of this size. Contractors on road jobs in Limpopo and the Free State use a 12V explosion proof fuel pump to top up plant on site, and transport depots use it for fast truck refuelling when the mains is down in load-shedding.

Questions about this product
Can I run this off a bakkie battery?
It is a 12V DC pump, so it is designed for a vehicle or deep-cycle battery. The supplier lists the motor at 1.5 kW, which means very high current, so use thick cable, a proper fuse and a healthy battery. Keep the engine running while pumping, and ask us if you want the wiring checked.
Will it pump petrol?
Yes, it is listed for diesel, light oil, paraffin and petrol, and it has an explosion-proof build. Still, use fuel-rated hose, keep the battery connections clean and away from fuel vapour, and ground the nozzle. Never pump near open flames or sparks.
