The Piusi Panther EX 56 is the ATEX-rated heavy-duty version of the trusted Panther 56 transfer pump. Built around the same cast-iron pump body but engineered for hazardous areas, it carries IECEx Ex d IIA T4 Gb certification for safe transfer of petrol, diesel, kerosene, and other flammable liquids in Zone 1 and Zone 2 environments.
This is the feet-mounted pump-only version, the right choice when you're plumbing it into a fixed installation or a custom kit. Continuous-duty motor, magnetic ON/OFF switch, and the integrated bypass valve make it a workhorse for drum, IBC, and tank-side transfer where compliance with AS 1940 and AS/NZS 60079 matters.
Key Features
- Flow rate 56 l/min (14.7 GPM) at 230V/50Hz, 500W motor, 2.3 A draw, 2800 RPM
- ATEX II 2 G Ex d IIA T4 Gb / IECEx certified for Zone 1 / Zone 2
- Continuous duty (S1) with thermal motor protection
- Cast-iron body, sintered-steel rotor, technopolymer vanes, Viton seals, steel shaft
- Magnetic ON/OFF switch and integrated bypass valve
- 1" BSP inlet, 1" BSP outlet

- Same proven Panther architecture as the non-ATEX Panther 56, hardened for hazardous areas

Common questions.
Q: What's the difference between the Panther 56 and the Panther EX 56? A: The Panther 56 is rated for diesel only. The Panther EX 56 carries ATEX II 2 G certification for petrol, kerosene, and other flammable liquids in Zone 1 / Zone 2 hazardous areas. Same pump architecture, hardened for hazardous service.
Q: Is this the feet or drum version? A: Feet version (F00580030). Comes with removable mounting feet for bolt-down installation. The drum version (F00580010 in Piusi's catalogue) ships with a drum connector and nozzle holder for IBC / 200L drum mounting. Speak to us if that is what you need.
Q: Why ATEX for diesel? A: Diesel itself is not flagged as Zone 1, but if you're sharing a yard, workshop, or storage area with petrol or other flammable hydrocarbons, your hazardous-area classification may require ATEX-certified equipment across the whole installation. Many WHS-conscious sites standardise on ATEX as a future-proofing measure.
Q: Does it run continuously or have a duty cycle? A: Continuous duty (S1). You can run it back-to-back for shift-long fills without thermal cut-out, unlike the Cube cabinet dispensers which have a 30-minute on/off cycle.
Q: What flow meter pairs with it? A: For ATEX-compliant metering, pair with the Piusi K600 ATEX or K33 ATEX mechanical meter. Non-ATEX meters cannot legally be used in the same Zone 1 installation.
Q: Does it come with a nozzle and hose? A: No. This is the pump-only version. Speak to us about matched ATEX-rated nozzles, hoses, and suction kits to build a complete petrol or diesel transfer station.
