INTRODUCTION 

The Low Viscosity (LV) Drum Pump filtration system has been designed to handle lubricants that 

have a viscosity of 1250 cSt (5500 SUS) and below, directly filtering and dispensing lubricant 

from a standard 55-gallon drum. 

Exceeding the viscosity limits of this system can cause 

damage to the motor.

 All parts are made from high quality stainless steel and aluminum. 

Before purchasing this unit, the customer should be aware of any specific requirements and/or 

hazards of their lubricant and ensure that the fluid being filtered and dispensed is compatible 

with the filter media and hose material.  

REQUIRED ITEMS 

Drum Pump motor – A motor is required to drive the pump shaft which attaches to the drive 

coupler. It is interchangeable with different Trico Drum Pump designs. Only one motor is 

needed and can be interchanged with multiple drum pumps.
