Generally, transfer pumps move fluid from one location to another using a difference in pressure. Power is needed to create this pressure, draw the fluid into the pump, and expel the fluid toward its new location.

Food-grade transfer pumps meet sanitary standards to make them safe to use for food production. Stainless steel is often the material of choice given its sanitation and cost-efficiency. These kinds of pumps are also used in the pharmaceutical industry because they fulfill similar requirements.
