HORUSDY 80L Pneumatic Waste Oil Drainer Fluid Transfer Tank Air Car Workshop

Draining a sump into a shallow tray works right up until the tray has to be carried. Eight litres of hot black oil, an open top and a walk across a workshop is how concrete gets permanently marked. A wheeled drainer takes the oil straight into a sealed 80 litre tank, then pushes it out again under shop air.

The funnel catches, the tank carries

A 10 litre pan sits on a telescopic column winding from 98 cm to 165 cm on a quick-adjustment clamp, so one unit goes under a hoist, a ramped ute or a low sedan. Pan depth is the point: oil has somewhere to sit while the sump is still dribbling, rather than pooling to the rim. Two 3 inch swivel castors and two 5 inch fixed wheels do the moving.

Emptying it is an air line job

Connect shop air at the quarter-inch NPT inlet and pressure pushes the contents out through the 1.5 metre hose into a bulk drum. Working pressure sits between 1 and 2.5 bar against a supplier maximum of 3 bar, held by a fixed inlet regulator and a relief valve. The in-line ball valve closes fast, which is the difference between filling a drum and overfilling one.

Key features

• 80 litre sealed tank: several oil changes between trips to the collection point.
• 10 litre funnel pan: deep enough to keep draining unattended.
• Telescopic column: 98 to 165 cm on a clamp, no tools needed.
• Air discharge: empties under pressure rather than by tipping.

What's in the box

• 1 x 80 L mobile waste oil drainer
• 1 x 10 L oil collection pan
• 2 x 3 inch swivel castor wheels
• 2 x 5 inch fixed wheels
• 1 x lift rod
• 1 x 1.5 m oil pipe
• 1 x ball valve switch

Before you use it

• Assembly is required before first use.
• Do not exceed the supplier's stated maximum of 3 bar (45 psi). The tank is a pressure vessel when charged with air, and the relief valve must be left free to vent.
• Oil drained straight after a run is hot. The supplier states the drain tube withstands high temperatures; skin does not.
• Dispose of waste oil through a licensed collection point, never to stormwater or ground.

Sized for a busy home workshop or a small service bay, where tank capacity decides how often someone makes the trip.
