Dayton 53RU55 Electric Drum Pump
The Dayton 53RU55 is a corded electric drum pump designed to transfer fluids from standard drums using 230 V AC power. It suits workshops and industrial sites needing a self-priming pump with a manual nozzle for controlled dispensing. The unit includes a bung adapter and a 6 ft discharge hose for immediate setup.
230 V AC CEE 7/7 operation limits
The pump runs on 230 V AC at 50/60 Hz with a CEE 7/7 plug, requiring a compatible mains supply. Maximum head and outlet pressure are rated at 16 psi, while maximum oil flow reaches 7 gpm. Thermal protection guards the motor during extended runs, and the unit can operate dry without damage.
Simple installation with dry-run safety
Installation consists of fitting the bung adapter, inserting the 39 in suction tube, and connecting the 6 ft hose before plugging the 16 ft cord into a CEE 7/7 socket. Common issues include exceeding the 16 psi pressure limit with viscous fluids and kinking the 1 in diameter hose, which reduces flow.

Questions about this item
Should I choose this 230 V AC pump or a different voltage version?
This model runs on 230 V AC at 50/60 Hz with a CEE 7/7 plug, so select it only if your supply matches those figures.
What does the 16 psi head pressure mean when the pump is running?
It is the maximum outlet pressure the pump can develop; flow will decrease as back-pressure approaches that limit.
How does the corded electric interface limit where I can use the pump?
The 16 ft cord and CEE 7/7 plug tie the unit to a fixed 230 V AC outlet, so the pump must stay within that reach.
