Electrical AdBlue® Pumps – Plug in or Battery?

For those people with large biceps a manual AdBlue® Pump is no problem at all and we have a range of options available to buy on our website here

However, for those AdBlue® users who prefer to use more brains than braun (or who have a slightly bigger budget) we definitely recommend investing in an electric AdBlue® pump to dispense your AdBlue® liquid from either your 210 Litre AdBlue® drum or 1000 Litre AdBlue® IBC.

The options are mainly split between two kinds of electric pumps. Those that are more portable and use the equivalent of a 12 volt car battery and those electric pumps that use 230 volts and can be plugged into the wall. Many electric AdBlue® pumps will come in both variations and the one you choose will come down to your own personal requirements, eg do you need to use the pump at several locations or at a location that doesn’t have mains power?

If the answer is yes, then your best option is to probably go for a 12volt electric AdBlue® pump this will give you the mobility and flexibility to transport your equipment from location to another. You will though have to purchase or acquire a battery that will be suitable for use.
