5 Ways EZI-ACTION® IBC Pump Can Be Used

The Ezi-action® 1000/220 IBC Pump is a versatile and highly durable hand pump designed specifically for dispensing liquids from Intermediate Bulk Containers (IBCs) and totes. It is used in many industries to handle chemicals, oils, and even food products safely and efficiently. 

‍

Below are five situational examples of how this pump can be used across different fields.

‍

1. Agricultural Use: Fertilizer and Pesticide Application

In the agricultural sector, the Ezi-action® IBC Pump offers an efficient solution for handling liquid fertilizers and pesticides. Large-scale farming operations often rely on bulk quantities of these chemicals stored in IBCs. The pump’s chemical-resistant construction ensures it can safely dispense harsh agricultural chemicals without risk of degradation. Additionally, its ability to pump from the bottom of the IBC allows farmers to utilize every drop, reducing waste and preventing hazardous spills that can harm crops or the environment. The optional hose accessory makes accurate application to ground-level sprayers easier.

‍

Example Use Case: A farmer must transfer a large quantity of liquid fertilizer from an IBC to a sprayer attached to a tractor. The Ezi-action® IBC Pump allows them to safely and efficiently transfer the liquid without spills or exposure to harmful chemicals, ensuring a smooth farming operation.

‍

2. Automotive Industry: AdBlue (DEF) Refilling for Fleet Management

Maintaining compliance with emissions regulations is critical for companies managing fleets of diesel vehicles. The Ezi-action® IBC Pump makes it simple to transfer AdBlue (Diesel Exhaust Fluid) from large containers into vehicle DEF tanks. Its leak-free design ensures that the highly corrosive fluid does not spill, which could otherwise lead to environmental harm or damage to surrounding equipment. The pump’s secure fit into the IBC using the Ezi-action® Adaptor Fitting ensures no risk of accidental leaks.

‍

Example Use Case: A transport company managing a fleet of trucks uses the Ezi-action® IBC Pump to refill their vehicles with AdBlue. The controlled flow allows them to dispense exactly the right amount of fluid, ensuring compliance with emissions standards while preventing costly spills.

‍

3. Industrial Use: Safe Oil and Diesel Transfer

Industries that rely on machinery powered by diesel or oil need a safe and efficient way to transfer these liquids from IBCs. The Ezi-action® IBC Pump, with its robust construction, is designed to withstand the heavier viscosity of oils and fuels while providing a controlled flow for both large and small-scale transfers. Its anti-pumping safety device ensures that only authorized personnel can use the pump, preventing accidental operation.

‍

Example Use Case: A construction company using heavy machinery like excavators and bulldozers can easily refill their fuel tanks from an IBC using the Ezi-action® IBC Pump, ensuring they can quickly and safely dispense the exact amount of fuel needed to keep their operations running smoothly.

‍

4. Food Industry: Dispensing Liquid Ingredients like Syrup or Molasses

The food and beverage industry often requires bulk storage of liquid ingredients such as molasses, syrups, and oils. The Ezi-action® IBC Pump, constructed from FDA-compliant plastics, makes it safe for handling food-grade liquids. Its true double-action pump ensures that even thicker, viscous ingredients can be dispensed smoothly and without clogging. The pump's ability to empty the entire container reduces wastage and ensures the highest level of hygiene in food production environments.

‍

Example Use Case: A food processing plant needs to dispense molasses from an IBC into mixing vats. The Ezi-action® IBC Pump effortlessly handles the thick liquid, ensuring the entire container is emptied with no spills or wastage while maintaining food safety standards.

‍

5. Environmental Management: Chemical Dispensing for Water Treatment

In the environmental and water treatment sectors, handling large volumes of chemicals is often necessary. The Ezi-action® IBC Pump’s chemical-resistant polypropylene and polyethylene construction ensures that even the harshest treatment chemicals, like chlorine or acids, can be transferred safely. With its ability to deliver a continuous fast flow, operators can manage their water treatment processes efficiently while minimizing the risk of leaks or spills that could harm the environment.

‍

Example Use Case: A water treatment facility needs to add chemicals to treat large water tanks. The Ezi-action® IBC Pump allows operators to safely transfer the required chemicals from IBCs, ensuring a controlled and precise chemical dosage while preventing exposure to harmful substances.

‍

Conclusion

The Ezi-action® 1000/220 IBC Pump provides a practical and highly versatile solution for various industries, from agriculture and automotive to food production and environmental management. Its robust construction, safety features, and efficient double-action pumping technology make it an essential tool for anyone working with large liquid containers. Whether you're transferring fertilizers on a farm, refilling DEF tanks for your fleet, or dispensing food-grade liquids, the Ezi-action® IBC Pump ensures reliable and safe performance, saving time and reducing waste in any operation.
