Jabsco Sliding Vane Diesel Transfer Pump - 9 GPM - 24V

The Jabsco Sliding Vane Diesel Transfer Pump — 9 GPM with 24V operation — is a self-priming pump engineered for rapid fuel transfer from bulk drums to vehicles and equipment in field, operational, and remote deployment scenarios. Designed to handle diesel, kerosene, paraffin, and hydraulic oils up to 150 centiStokes viscosity, this unit delivers the reliable, on-demand fuel logistics capability that operators and support personnel require when resupply must happen far from fixed infrastructure.

The 9 GPM flow rate suits vehicles with fuel tanks up to 50 U.S. gallons — typical capacity for light tactical vehicles, generators, helicopters, and heavy equipment. The 24-volt system integrates seamlessly with standard military and commercial vehicle electrical buses, eliminating the need for external power conversion. Self-priming operation means the pump begins flow without manual priming, critical when working in cold conditions or at altitude where air entrapment can delay conventional pump startup. The sliding vane design provides consistent pressure across viscosity ranges, preventing the flow degradation and cavitation issues that plague gear pumps in variable-temperature field environments.

This pump is purpose-built for mechanical and equipment support roles — excavators, cranes, road rollers, agricultural machinery, generators, and rotary-wing platforms all depend on units like this for mission-critical fuel transfer. Personnel managing forward operating bases, training ranges, or remote work sites use this class of pump to eliminate manual hauling and transfer-line rupture risk. The compact footprint and 6.35-pound weight make it portable enough to deploy with mobile refueling kits while maintaining the flow capacity necessary to keep multiple assets operational.

Jabsco sliding vane pumps have been the standard in military and marine fuel-transfer applications for decades, valued for durability under neglect and reliability across fuel-quality variations that occur in field stockpiles. This 24V, 9 GPM model is the workhorse configuration for light vehicles and generators.
