Patent pending, triple seal technology sets new bar

Wichita, KS -- (ReleaseWire) -- 03/10/2016 -- Great Plains Industries has announced that its GPI brand of fuel transfer pumps has been upgraded to include a completely redesigned, patent pending, suction pipe. The new suction pipe design features triple seal technology.

The new suction pipe is currently included with electric and hand pump models manufactured by GPI which are equipped with a 1" inlet. They are currently available through all GPI distributors/stores.

Triple seal technology ensures sustained zero-loss of suction through the telescoping suction pipe. Other fuel transfer pumps experience a steady degradation in suction efficiency over the life of the suction pipe as parts and seals wear and age. Zero-loss means pumps will prime fast and provide optimal and sustained fuel transfer rates resulting in less time spent pumping fuel.

Great Plains Industries manufactures its exclusive zero-loss, telescoping suction pipe using new injection molding technologies recently added at its Wichita plant.

"The GPI brand continues to distance itself within the fuel transfer pump category for its unmatched high performance and ease of installation," said Vic Lukic, CEO of Great Plains Industries. "The engineers and team behind this great brand continue to bring innovation to America's favorite fuel transfer pump."

More on this new triple seal technology and telescoping pipe is available at GPI.net/suction.

Exacting assembly methods, down to a thousandth of an inch!

Wichita, KS -- (ReleaseWire) -- 08/28/2015 -- Great Plains Industries, Inc. (GPI) is excited to announce the 40th anniversary of its M-series of fuel transfer pumps.

Introduced by GPI in 1975 as the Model M-120, the gear type, M-Series fuel transfer pump was rated at 12 gallons per minute and operated on 12-volts D.C. The pump was primarily aimed at the agricultural market (tractors & combines), as well as off-road construction vehicles such as dozers and scrapers.

Some unique properties of the original design included lightweight aluminum housing material that did not rust or overload the tank bung, an adjustable spin collar allowing the pump to be oriented easily, and an integrated nozzle hang-up feature. The pump was also UL Listed and CSA Certified with an explosion-proof motor and separate pump listings.

"M-Series transfer pumps have become incredibly popular in their intended marketplace and even in some alternative applications for exotic fuels, chemicals and locations," said Vic Lukic, president and CEO at GPI. "These pumps are extremely important products for our company and if it weren't for the M-series pumps, GPI would not be in the position it's in today."

The M-Series has undergone several upgrades over the years, with additional models and voltages added to the product line.

For instance, the current Model M-150S saw an increase in flow rate from 12 gallons per minute to 15 gallons per minute.

The Model M-240S was designed to work on 24-volt D.C. systems that are common on some tractors, aircraft and off-road equipment.

The Model M-180S gives an increase in flow rate to 18 gallons per minute in the same package size.

"Every time an M-series transfer pump is placed in the carton, it is indicative of the pride of workmanship that GPI hopes to instill in the assembly process," says Lukic. "All individuals involved in the process make a quality difference."

M-Series fuel transfer pumps are classified as "fixed-clearance, spur-gear, positive displacement." The internal clearances are very tight, with some components specified in the tenths of thousandths of an inch. So, in order for the pumps to function correctly, it is imperative that close tolerances and exacting assembly methods are used.

"We continually strive to improve processes to maintain the highest-quality product standards," says Jeff Methe, GPI Operations Manager. "The development of the M-Series fuel transfer pump is testimony to GPI's incredible manufacturing capabilities that results in better performance, higher quality and lower costs."

"GPI is adding a scaled pulse output option to its Economy Series flowmeter line based on market needs and GPI's culture of innovation," says Kevin Symens, North American Sales Manager, Meters Division.

Compact and lightweight in construction — important benefits when used in mobile installations or within confined spaces — the new FLOMEC branded 02N and 02A will carry the same specifications as the GPI 01N and 01A. Additionally, it will include a pair of output wires to provide a single pulse for every gallon or liter measured.

The 02 meter products offer versatility to a wider variety of applications including irrigation, building automation (chillers), programmable logic controller (batch control), wireless communications, data logger, OEM skids and more. The 01 meter products remain available for applications requiring a display with no output.

"We're excited to offer our customers a differentiated new product," said Symens. "The FLOMEC 02 Scaled Pulse Meter is another prime example of how we continually bring added-value to our customers."

The 02A will not carry the FM Global approval, but all other features will remain the same.
