I may be a new member, but just got another pump given to me. Neighbor had this in a storage building for years. When he saw my Bennett, he knew he had a home for his pump.
I know little about this and have not gotten into the ID yet as it is heavily painted
Cylinder aprox 5 ft tall and 18 inch dia. with dome top. Clock face 20 gallons max.
From the post I've read so far I may have a stranger here!
Any idea what I have or details would be appreciated.

Welcome to the sight atog254!!
It sounds like you have a visible possible tall ten or fifteen gallon pump. Can we get a picture to post? I can post it for you if you email it to me.
Congrats on your score!

This is not a visible. Since there is no tank at top of pump. I presume this to be a small farm pump of some sort.
The pump is a 5 ft tall cylinder with domed top, the front has a 8 inch clock face and on the back of the brass clock housing is the name Trident.
I will get picture asap for additional help in ID this pump.

Got to get some picture here!
Working for the Delaware Motor Fuel Tax Administration all these years has given me some sources and contacts locally in the petroleum industry. My hope is getting a local company to finally sell me a double cylinder visible in their storage building. I've known about this one for aprox. 15 years and ask about it when ever I'm visiting.
Will get a copy of Sims book in near future!
Tks

Putting in order for Simms book this weekend.
Just received a copy of Vic's 66 and on pages 82 -83 are trash cans that would be similar to the Trident pump. The pump is taller with the clock face on one side.

Uncovered the ID plate and it is a Richmond Oil Company pump.
Got to get that barn heated!
Since I have several blasting cabinets for my glass etching business I will start on one of these pumps in near future.
Hope to complete one by summers end.
Thanks everyone for the responses
Makes me feel welcome
Got to get some before picture here
