Introducing Tempo’s Newest Gas Walker Fueler / Defueler Line!

The ultimate for safely handling explosive fuels and hazardous solvents.

For over 30 years, Tempo portable fuel / solvent transfer systems have set the quality standard for safe,

efficient handling of fuels and certain shop solvents. Our tankers are designed to minimize the risks associated

with repair operations on fuel tanks, fuel gauges and a variety of other fuel system procedures. They offer safer

storage by reducing fumes, plus several grounding devices safely dissipate electrical static discharge.

Tempo tankers meet or exceed all current OSHA safety regulations that apply to these fuels and solvents,

and are fully approved by Factory Mutual, as well as accepted by major automotive manufacturers and their

insurance carriers.

There is a Tempo tanker to fit your needs, with 30 gallon and 100 gallon capacities available. And, you can

choose between economical hand operated tankers that pump at a rate of 7 gallons per minute, or the

efficient air operated systems that pump a higher volume at 10 gallons per minute. The air operated models

effectively reduce operator fatigue and time required to do the job… which means reduced labor costs and a

better bottom line for you. When it comes to fuel and solvent handling, don’t settle for less than the finest.

Tempo®portable fuel / solvent transfer systems offer maximum safety and convenience features:

• Directional fuel flow system- A single 4-way valve controls all functions without the need for
separate check and shut-off valves.

Filtration protection- Spin-on filter removes 98.8% of emulsified water & foreign particles.

•
The filter is an integral component of our directional control valve filtering fuel when
pumping from a vehicle into a tanker.

• Factory Mutual Approved- Fully complies with all OSHA requirements

• Rapid operation saves time and labor

• Fuels and defuels

• Safer storage by reducing fumes- cutting fire hazards to a minimum

• Electrical static grounding dissipates a static discharge via grounding wires.

• Rapid operation saves time and labor

• Direct sight mechanical gauge is easy to read

• Bright red powder coated finish is fuel resistant.
“Flammable”, “Gasoline”, “Diesel” and “Unleaded”
decals are packed separately with each tanker.

• Warranty- All parts are warranted for 90 days
against defects in workmanship and materials.

Air Conversion Units

Tempo air conversion units transfer fuel / solvents

at a higher 10 gallon per minute pumping rate

than conventional hand pumps. They run on shop

air, and will adapt to any of Tempo’s 30 or 100

gallon tankers. These units feature air regulators

and gauge for precise pressure, and can easily be

installed in approximately 30 minutes.
