This detailed product description presents the Gartec NP1118 item number, a 3:1 ratio, double-acting (dual operation) drum pump specifically designed for fluid transfer from 200-liter drums. The pump is excellently suited for reliable and efficient material handling in industrial environments.
The NP1118 model belongs to the category of Gartec pneumatic pumps and utilizes compressed air power for fluid conveyance. The 3:1 compression ratio provides an ideal solution for the efficient dispensing of medium-viscosity, non-corrosive fluids, such as new engine oils. The double-acting design ensures continuous, smooth flow, minimizing pulsations during delivery.
This pump combines reliability and durability with ease of handling, making it an ideal choice for workshops, maintenance facilities, and production lines where precise and fast material transfer is essential.
The pump's performance is determined by the compressed air pressure and the type of fluid. The 3:1 ratio means the output pressure is three times the input air pressure, guaranteeing stable operation even for higher delivery heights and longer pipelines.
Main performance data:
Flow rate: 30 liters/minute (l/min). This capacity allows for fast filling and emptying.
Working pressure: Between 4 bar (58 PSI) and 8 bar (116 PSI). To achieve maximum pressure, the inlet air pressure must be regulated accordingly.
Compression ratio: 3:1.
The NP1118 pump is specifically suitable for conveying the following fluids, with particular consideration for lubricants and maintenance fluids:
New oil
Waste oil – Although the main focus is on new oil, pneumatic pumps are generally also suitable for transferring used oil, provided it does not contain large solid particles.
Grease – For medium viscosity greases.
AdBlue (Catalyst Dosing Fluid)
Water
Antifreeze (Antifreeze)
Cleaners
Hydrocarbons
Window washer fluid (Window washer)
Note: The pump is excellently integrable into systems designed for dosing new oil.
The table below summarizes the critical technical specifications of the pump, which are essential for proper installation and operation.

The NP1118 is a drum pump that must be installed directly into the standard opening of 200-liter drums.
Suction tube size: The 42 mm diameter and 940 mm long suction tube ensures that the pump can efficiently draw material from the bottom of most standard 200-liter drums.
Air supply: The 1/4″ inlet connection fits standard pneumatic systems. For maximum efficiency, ensuring adequate pressure air supply is recommended.
To optimize pump performance and ensure safe operation, Gartec recommends the following accessories:
Pressure Regulator: Precise pressure regulation is essential for increasing the pump's lifespan and maintaining optimal flow.
Securing Ring Nut (Ring nut for securing pumps to drums – Model NV9006): This accessory (Ø42 mm) ensures the solid and stable mounting of the pump to the bung hole, preventing displacement caused by vibration.
These accessories help guarantee the reliable and long-term operation of the Gartec NP1118 pump in industrial environments.
The Gartec 3:1 ratio, double-acting drum pump (NP1118) is a robust, high-performance device offering a flow rate of 30 l/min for 200-liter drums. It is excellently suited for the pneumatic transfer of oils, antifreeze, and other maintenance fluids, ensuring efficient fluid management for workshops and industrial units. The 3:1 ratio guarantees the necessary pressure for most delivery tasks.
