Truck Master 3 (483 CFM) - Liquid Ring Pump

The Truck Master Series – Liquid Ring Pumps are the only safe option for pumping hydrocarbons and other flammable or hazardous materials due to the impeller operating in an intermediate fluid. These pumps also offer high airflow with very low noise levels.

The TM3 liquid ring vacuum pump performs best with 4″ hoses. 2” and 3” hoses can be used with reduced RPMs, and hoses larger than 4” can be used, but this is recommended for fluids only.
