Alemite AL8550-A1 Lubricant Pump 50:1 Assembly

Product Description

The ALEMITE AL8550-A1 is a 50:1 ratio lubricant pump assembly designed for dispensing grease and heavy lubricants in professional service environments. Operating on 120-volt power, this air-operated pump delivers consistent output pressure and flow, making it a reliable choice for shop floor and fleet maintenance operations. The 50:1 ratio means the pump multiplies inlet air pressure by a factor of 50, generating the output force needed to move heavy-viscosity lubricants through standard dispensing lines. At 35 pounds, this is a substantial, commercial-grade unit intended for permanent or semi-permanent installation on a drum or bulk lubricant container.

This pump assembly is suited for commercial garages, fleet maintenance shops, industrial facilities, and other environments where bulk lubricant dispensing is a routine task. It is typically mounted directly to a drum lid or follower plate and connected to an air supply line and a dispensing hose or reel. The 50:1 mechanical advantage makes it capable of handling high-viscosity greases and oils that lower-ratio pumps cannot move effectively. Licensed mechanics, lubrication technicians, and industrial maintenance professionals are the primary installers and operators of this unit.

Key Features

• 50:1 pump ratio delivers high output pressure from standard shop air supply
• 120-volt compatible assembly suited for permanent shop installations
• Handles high-viscosity greases and heavy lubricants
• Commercial-grade construction at 35 pounds for stable drum-mount use

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct installation pump assembly for bulk lubricant drum dispensing systems requiring a 50:1 ratio air-operated pump.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified lubrication technician or licensed mechanic familiar with pneumatic dispensing systems. Disconnect and bleed the air supply line before servicing or replacing the pump assembly. Ensure the mounting bung or follower plate is rated for the drum size and lubricant type in use. Follow all applicable OSHA and facility safety guidelines when working with pressurized lubricant dispensing equipment.
