EXAIR Two-Way Liquid Vacuum Pump System 86196 is an air-powered 55-gallon drum vacuum and liquid transfer pump for coolant recovery, sludge removal, and industrial spill cleanup. It helps you move non-flammable liquids into or out of a compatible steel drum without a separate electric pump. This makes it useful for routine cleanup and liquid handling in busy work areas.When coolant collects around machine tools, you need a way to remove it before more work can begin. This system helps your crew collect used coolant and wet debris for proper handling. You can use it in metal shops, plant maintenance areas, and service bays where liquids need to be moved into a drum.The pump uses compressed air and mounts on the two-inch bung opening of a tight-head steel drum. A control knob changes the flow direction, so you can collect liquid and later discharge it from the drum. Use a drum in sound condition that meets the system's requirements, and check the liquid type before starting any job.

The system includes a ten-foot flexible polyethylene hose, a ninety-degree elbow, and an aluminum wand for reaching liquid around equipment. An automatic shutoff helps stop liquid pickup before the drum overfills. These parts are useful when you need to reach into machine areas, sumps, or other spots that are hard to clean by hand.The pump is made with stainless steel and PVC parts. Its simple air-driven design avoids the moving parts found in many motor pumps. For shops that clean up coolant or non-flammable oil often, this setup can help keep liquid transfer tasks straightforward. Make sure your compressed air supply can support the listed operating pressure.This listing is for the two-way pump system, not a complete drum and cart setup. The steel drum is sold separately, so plan for a compatible container before ordering. Confirm the liquid is non-flammable and suitable for the equipment. Follow your site's procedures for collecting, storing, and disposing of used liquids and sludge.
