The Leo XKM60 is probably the second most popular processor pump in the UK, second only to the TAM105.
It is sold as a clear water pump with a maximum temperature rating of 60°C, but has been found, by many home brewers, to operate quite satisfactorily at temperatures up to 80°C and above, pumping oil and Biodiesel.
It is not self priming, but once primed has a very respectable suction lift for a pump of its size.
The Leo XKM60 has the following specifications and performance:
power(HP) … 0.5
power(kw) … 0.37
Max. head … 40m
Max. flow … 40L/min
Max. SUCT … 8m
Inlet/Outlet connections … 1” BSP, female
