DELTA Fuel Pumps - Which DELTA Pump To Choose
Anglo Nordic stock a range of Delta fuel pumps. We provide Delta pumps with a capacity range from 20 to 300 l/h, with and without built-on solenoid valve (shut-off valve). To make sure you choose the Delta pump best suited to the job at hand, here’s a quick guide to the types of Delta oil pumps and accessories offered.
A and AD Delta pumps:
- Designed for pumping oil in high pressure oil burners and transfer pump applications.
- Features allow an easy pump replacement with every other type of oil pump.
- These Delta pumps must not be used to pump water or acid.
The A/AD Delta pump is made of a intergrated cast iron housed pumping unit with bidirectional nozzle ports, cut-off solenoid valve (type A only), cartridge filter and pressure and vacuum gauges . Designed so that the hub and shaft sizes are manufactured to fit to any oil burner, as well as pumping fuel from the tank to the burner at the required pressure.
The type A consists of a pump, solenoid valve, filter and pressure regulator (type AD does not have a solenoid valve). Two spur gears (one connected to the drive shaft) operates the pumping action. Aluminium pump casting provides the multiple oil ways, for the suction return and nozzle ports.
If you need to provide oil to the nozzle with an AD pump, a shut-off valve must be fitted in the nozzle line.
We have 230V, 110V & 24V A and AD versions available all of which can be converted from 1 pipe version to 2 pipe & vice versa if required.
Delta VU fuel pumps:
- Designed for pumping oil in high pressure oil burners and transfer pump applications.
- Features allow an easy pump replacement with every other type of oil pump.
- Selectable left or right hand nozzle port and one or two pipe system configuration.
- Reversible rotation without removing the cover.
- This Delta pump must not be used to pump water or acid.
The VU fuel unit is housed within one casing including a pump, filter and pressure and solenoid valve. Two spur gears, one of which is connected to the drive shaft allows the unit to pump. The pump casting provides the multiple oil ways, for the suction return and nozzle ports. VU pumps allow a choice of nozzle outlet connection (either left or right side) making them an ideal pump for heating engineers van stock.
This fuel pump can be converted from the two pipe version to the single pipe version, removing the by-pass plug from the return port.
To convert the Delta fuel unit from the two pipe version to the single pipe version, do the following:
- Using a 4mm allen key, unscrew the by-pass plug from the return port.
- Fit a ¼” plug into the return port
Caution:
- In the two pipe version the air is bled through the return port. After conversion, the air must be bled manually, through the pressure gauge port.
- Make sure that the by-pass plug is not used in a single pipe installation, because the fuel unit will not function properly and damage the pump and burner motor as a result.
Selection of rotation:
The Delta fuel unit type VU unit is provided with a screw for the selection of rotation located under the vacuum gauge plug. To change the direction of the rotation, do the following:
- Using a screwdriver, remove the ⅛” plug from the vacuum gauge port. Under the plug, inside the pump, is the selector screw.
- Turn it 90° up to the stop, to change the rotation.
Caution:
- The selection screw must be oriented with the groove vertical (L) or horizontal (R), otherwise the fuel unit will not function properly and this could result in damage.
We have 230V, 110V & 24V VU versions available.
Delta VM fuel pumps:
The VM Delta is a modern oil burner pump with a compact design. Due to the dimensions of its hub, shaft and mounting flange, it can be attached to the majority of domestic and commercial oil burners.
All pumps are designed to international standards and require mains power. Ideal for oil pumping systems.
