Kerosene pumps come in different types depending on their specific application and design. Here are some of the common types of kerosene pumps:
Hand-operated rotary pump: This type of pump is manually operated using a handle that rotates the pump's impeller. It is often used for transferring small amounts of kerosene from one container to another.
Electric rotary pump: This pump uses an electric motor to rotate the impeller and transfer kerosene. It is commonly used in fuel stations and other industrial applications.
Diaphragm pump: A diaphragm pump uses a flexible diaphragm to create suction and discharge pressure. This type of pump is ideal for transferring kerosene over short distances and can handle viscous fluids.
Gear pump: A gear pump uses a set of gears to transfer kerosene. It is efficient and commonly used in fuel dispensers.
Centrifugal pump: A centrifugal pump uses an impeller to create a flow of kerosene. It is efficient and commonly used in high flow rate applications.
Submersible pump: A submersible pump is designed to be submerged in the kerosene tank or container. It is often used in fuel storage tanks to transfer kerosene to the surface.
