Gorman-Rupp’s Unit 608 Tankleenor provides quick, efficient and economical cleaning of petroleum storage tanks.The Unit 608 Tankleenor is a lightweight, wheel-mounted cleaning system designed for oneman operation and is easily moved from job to job.

Even when tanks are thought to be free of moisture and foreign debris, they often containenough water and other contaminants to degrade the stored product. The Gorman-Rupp Unit 608 Tankleenor can remove contaminants…like gel precipitates, microbial growths, rustand water…without disturbing the product or taking the tank out of service.

Operating liquid drawn from the contaminant tank circulates through the pump and creates avacuum at the eductor. The vacuum draws moisture and contaminants through the cleanouthose and back to the eductor, where it mixes with the operating liquid and is carried to the contaminant tank.

At the heart of this system is a Gorman-Rupp O Series self-priming centrifugal pump. This system offers the same quality and designfeatures that have proved to be so successful in bulk plants, in fuel oiland aviation fuel delivery service. O Series 2" x 2" (50mm x 50mm) self-priming centrifugal pump with standard Viton seal (optional Buna seal available), close-coupled to a 1 HP Class 1, Group D,60 Hz, 115/230V, single phaseexplosion-proofTEFC electric motor with 50' (15m) of 12 gauge, type SO cable with 125 volt, 20 amp grounded plug.The pump is equipped with a venturi-type eductor permitting recirculation of operating fluid without contaminating the tank, and a hand-operated valve for back flushing. The discharge and suctionports are fitted with quick-connect couplers.

Detachable reel assembly for storing hose and controlling directionand travel rate comes standard. The reel assembly is fitted with abuilt-in sight tube which enables the operator to locate and removepockets of contamination.

Hydrocarbon-resistant hose,5⁄8" diameter by 42' long (16mm x 13m),comes standard with a spring steel integral strap insert and a specially designed nozzle.

A 6' x3⁄4" (2m x 19mm) connector hose is provided to connect pumpeductor and valve to reel assembly.

Hoses come in 11⁄2" x 15' lengths, fitted with quick-disconnectcouplers to mate up with pump suction and discharge couplers.

Adjustable 7'-131⁄2' (14m) long stainless steel guide tube, withspring-loaded foot, comes standard.

Wire is 10' (3m) long, with clip, for grounding unit.
