Y6020 Electric Grease Pump for Drum-Mounted Mobile Greasing
The Y6020 is a drum-mounted electric grease pump built for maintenance teams that move greasing work to the machine instead of bringing every machine to a workshop bench. The pump assembly sits on a standard grease pail and draws grease through a follower plate. Because the unit travels with the pail, one pump can serve presses, conveyors, or mobile equipment across a plant.
Catalogs and procurement sheets list this unit under both names – Y6020 electric grease pump and Y6020 electrical grease pump – the same drum-mounted, 40 MPa unit with 12V/24V DC and 110/220V AC motor options. When your parts list shows a variant code such as Y6020-N or Y6020-E, match the voltage and outlet thread before ordering; we confirm both at quotation.
Four voltage versions are offered: 12V DC, 24V DC, 110V AC, and 220V AC. DC units suit vehicle power and field service work, while AC units suit fixed workshop positions. The pump handles grease from NLGI 000 up to NLGI 3 and reaches a maximum pressure of 40 MPa with a flow of 0.6 L/min.
How the Pump Works with a Follower Plate
The follower plate rests directly on the grease surface inside the pail. As grease is drawn out, the plate settles with the level and keeps the material pressed toward the pump inlet. This limits channeling and reduces the air that can enter the inlet when the surface is uneven.
The plate is a feeding aid, not a pressure intensifier. It does not multiply pump output; the pump itself generates the 40 MPa maximum. The benefit is a steadier supply of grease to the inlet, which matters most with stiff NLGI 2 and NLGI 3 grades.

What Is Supplied
Each unit arrives as a pump assembly with a follower plate, a high-pressure hose of 2.5-3 m, and a gun with coupler at the hose end. The net weight is 25 kg, so two people can lift it onto a pail. The pail itself is not part of the pump; the standard fit is a 20 liter pail with an internal diameter between 280 and 320 mm.
If your operation uses a larger container, a 40 liter version is confirmed on request. Because pail dimensions differ between suppliers, check the internal diameter before ordering rather than assuming it from the nominal volume.
The grease drum pump range shows the other drum-mounted options, and the Y6020 grease pump page covers this model in more detail. A broader background on matching pumps to grease grades is available in the guide to grease pump selection.
Choosing the Right Voltage Version
The voltage version is fixed at the time of order, so the decision should reflect where the pump will run. The 12V DC and 24V DC versions suit vehicle power and field service, where the pump travels on a service truck. The 110V AC and 220V AC versions suit fixed workshop benches where the pail stays in one place.
To confirm a configuration, request a quotation with your pail size and voltage.
Installation, Filling and Daily Care
Place the pail on level ground and check that the grease surface is reasonably flat before inserting the pump assembly through the drum cover. Seat the follower plate evenly on the grease, connect the hose, and fit the gun and coupler. Keep the cover in place during use to keep dust out of the pail.
During work, watch the follower plate as the level drops; if it tilts or hangs up, stop and reseat it. When changing pails, wipe the follower plate and the pump inlet.
For daily care, check the hose for kinks and abrasion and keep the coupler clean. For related equipment, the grease pump section covers other models, and the auto greaser range covers automated lubrication for machines that run unattended.
Frequently Asked Questions
What drums does the Y6020 fit?
The standard fit is a 20 liter pail of 280-320 mm internal diameter; a 40 liter version on request.
Which voltage should I order?
Choose 12V or 24V DC for vehicle power, or 110V or 220V AC for a fixed workshop bench.
What pressure does it develop?
Maximum pressure is 40 MPa. This is a peak figure, not a continuous working level for everyday operation.
How fast does it deliver grease?
Flow is 0.6 L/min. Actual output varies with grease grade and hose length, so stiff grades move more slowly.
What does the follower plate do?
It rides on the grease surface and feeds the inlet, limiting channeling and air ingestion.
What grease grades can it pump?
It handles NLGI 000 through NLGI 3. The follower plate helps most with stiff NLGI 2 and NLGI 3 grades.
Is the hose and gun included?
Yes. Each unit includes a high-pressure hose of 2.5-3 m and a gun with coupler at the hose end.
Can it run continuously?
It is built for maintenance greasing duty rather than continuous process operation. Plan work in normal greasing cycles.
Where do I confirm drum size and voltage before ordering?
Send your pail internal diameter and voltage choice through the quotation request page and the configuration will be confirmed.
Who builds the Y6020?
IsoHiTech Lubrication Systems, founded in 2023, engineering since 2006, builds and supports every unit. Email inquiry@isohitech.com for specifications and a quotation.
