54B106 - Surfox T 208L Drum Dispensing Pump

Professional Chemical Dispensing Solution

The Walter 54B106 Pump is a specialized industrial accessory designed explicitly for the safe transfer and dispensing of Surfox T heavy-duty weld cleaning electrolyte. Engineered to fit standard 208L (55-gallon) drums, this pump addresses the critical need for safe chemical handling in industrial environments. Surfox T is a potent electrolyte solution used in electrochemical weld cleaning, and handling large quantities requires equipment that is chemically inert and robust. This pump is constructed from high-quality, acid-resistant polymers that ensure the integrity of the pump mechanism over time, preventing corrosion that could lead to failure or fluid contamination.

In a production setting, the logistical challenge of refilling smaller Surfox machine reservoirs from a bulk 208L drum is significant. Attempting to pour from such a large vessel is not only impractical but highly dangerous due to the weight and the corrosive nature of the fluid. The 54B106 utilizes a manual piston or siphon mechanism (depending on the specific iteration) to draw fluid vertically from the drum, allowing operators to fill transfer containers or machine tanks directly with precision. This controlled dispensing method is vital for maintaining a safe workplace compliant with safety standards regarding hazardous material handling.

The design features a secure mounting system that stabilizes the pump on the drum opening, ensuring it remains vertical and rigid during use. The dip tube is sized to reach the bottom of standard 208L drums, ensuring maximum utilization of the expensive electrolyte fluid. By using the correct pump specified by Walter Surface Technologies, users guarantee that the materials in contact with the Surfox T fluid will not degrade or leach impurities into the solution, which could otherwise compromise the passivation results on stainless steel welds.

Ultimately, the 54B106 is an essential component for any facility utilizing bulk Surfox T. It bridges the gap between bulk storage and daily application, ensuring that the high-performance cleaning fluid is delivered to the workpiece safely, efficiently, and without waste. It represents a small investment in equipment that yields high returns in safety and operational efficiency.
