Prevost Oil Drum Kits
Prevost Oil Drum Kits offer a comprehensive, “out-of-the-box” solution for professional oil distribution. These kits are meticulously engineered to convert standard oil barrels into high-efficiency dispensing stations, ensuring that every drop of fluid is delivered cleanly, accurately, and with minimal effort.
Available in various ratios to handle different viscosities—from thin hydraulic fluids to heavy gear oils—these kits eliminate the guesswork by providing all the compatible components in a single package.
What’s Included in a Typical Kit?
Each kit is curated to provide a seamless flow from the drum to the vehicle or machine:
- Pneumatic Oil Pump: High-performance pumps (available in 1:1, 3:1, or 5:1 ratios) designed for quiet operation and long-term reliability.
- Digital Metering Gun: An ergonomic distribution nozzle equipped with a high-precision digital display for real-time tracking of liters or gallons dispensed.
- Reinforced Delivery Hose: High-quality, oil-resistant hoses (typically 3 to 4 meters) designed to withstand industrial pressure and abrasion.
- Drum Bung Adapter: A 2″ adjustable adapter that secures the pump to the drum while allowing for height adjustment to reach the bottom of the barrel.
- Air Treatment Unit (Optional in some kits): A compact pressure regulator to ensure the pump operates at the optimal air pressure for a steady flow.
Key Benefits
- Turnkey Efficiency: No need to source separate fittings or adapters; the kit is pre-configured for immediate setup and operation.
- Precision Dispensing: The integrated digital meter prevents overfilling and allows for accurate inventory tracking, reducing fluid waste and cost.
- Versatility: Designed to fit standard 60L (16 gal) or 200L (55 gal) drums, making them ideal for both small workshops and large industrial facilities.
- Durability: Built with Prevost’s industrial-grade standards, featuring corrosion-resistant pump bodies and high-strength internal seals.
- Clean Workspace: The drip-free nozzle design and secure bung adapters keep the top of your drum and your shop floor clean and hazard-free.
Technical Selection Guide
| Kit Type | Best For… | Typical Viscosity |
| 1:1 Ratio Kit | High-volume transfer over short distances | Light oils, antifreeze, hydraulic fluid |
| 3:1 Ratio Kit | General workshop use / Medium distances | Engine oils, synthetic oils, transmission fluid |
| 5:1 Ratio Kit | High-viscosity fluids or long-distance piping | Heavy gear oils (SAE 140+), cold environments |
Ideal Applications
- Automotive Service Centers: For fast, metered engine oil changes.
- Industrial Maintenance: Lubricating heavy machinery and hydraulic systems.
- Agriculture: On-site refueling and lubrication for tractors and harvesters.
- Fleet Management: Centralized oil distribution for trucking and transit hubs.
