Walbro FRB-16 Reciprocating Fuel Pump

Walbro FRB-16 Reciprocating Fuel Pump is a durable and reliable electric fuel pump designed for demanding industrial and vehicle-related applications where consistent fuel delivery and long service life are essential. The pump is engineered for 24V systems and delivers a steady flow rate even under varying load conditions. With high chemical resistance and compatibility with gasoline, diesel, biodiesel, and E85, the FRB-16 is suitable for both modern and specialized fuel systems.

The pump features an integrated magnetic trap and inlet filter for enhanced protection against particles and contaminants, contributing to its expected service life of more than 18,000 operating hours. The electrical design includes reverse polarity and transient voltage protection, making it well suited for harsh environments and professional installations.
