Pros & Cons
👍 Pros
- Double-acting pneumatic operation delivers continuous fluid output on both strokes, increasing throughput efficiency compared to single-acting designs.
- Height-adjustable 2" NPTM bung adaptor fits standard 55-gallon drum openings and allows precise tube depth positioning to reduce drum waste.
- Built-in pressure relief valve port (Part No. 609 007 compatible) allows downstream pressure protection without external plumbing modifications.
- Rated for a broad range of petroleum-based lubricants — synthetic oil, gear lube, hydraulic fluid, and ATF — covering the majority of industrial maintenance fluid types in a single pump.
- Air-operated design eliminates electrical hazards in facilities where ignition risk near lubricant storage is a compliance concern.
👎 Cons
- The 347120 is restricted to petroleum-based lubricants — it is not rated for water, solvents, fuels, or food-grade fluids, limiting cross-application utility in mixed-fluid facilities.
- At 7.257 kg package weight, the assembled pump and bung adaptor require two-person installation on drums secured in tight spaces.
- The pressure relief valve is not included — it is a separately purchased optional component, adding to total deployment cost for installations requiring downstream pressure protection.
- No NIST-traceable calibration documentation is provided for output volume accuracy, which may be a limitation in metered dispensing applications requiring measured delivery.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the pressure ratio of the 347120, and what does that mean for output pressure?
The Pumpmaster4 operates at a 5:1 pneumatic-to-fluid pressure ratio. Applied to a standard 100 PSI compressed air supply, the pump delivers up to 500 PSI fluid outlet pressure — sufficient for continuous dispensing of high-viscosity lubricants like gear lube and transmission fluid through extended hose runs.
What fluid types is the 347120 rated to handle?
Per Samson's specification, the pump is rated for synthetic and mineral-based oil, gear lube, hydraulic oil, and transmission fluid. It is not rated for water, fuel, solvents, or food-grade fluids — confirm fluid compatibility with Samson's chemical resistance documentation before deploying outside these categories.
How does the bung adaptor mount to a drum, and what fitting size is required?
The bung adaptor is height-adjustable and uses a 2" NPTM thread, which is the standard bung opening on 55-gallon drums. Height adjustment accommodates varying drum configurations and allows the pump tube to reach the drum floor to minimize fluid waste.
What is the optional pressure relief valve referenced in the product documentation?
The 347120 includes a built-in port for the optional Samson pressure relief valve (part number 609 007). This valve allows you to set a maximum downstream pressure ceiling, protecting downstream hose assemblies and dispensing equipment from pressure spikes during double-acting cycles.
What compressed air supply pressure and volume does the pump require?
The pump is air-operated and double-acting, meaning it pumps on both the forward and return stroke for higher output efficiency. A regulated compressed air supply in the 60–100 PSI range is standard for operation; consult Samson's flow rate curves for specific CFM requirements at your target output pressure.
