OPW has introduced a new fiberglass wide access dispenser sump; theDSF-1741C is for larger Wayne Helix 5000 Model dispensers.
The many features and benefits of this sump include:
Conduitless Design: The fiberglass base and metal cap and frame are designed to direct conduit into the dispenser along the side of the sump to avoid requiring additional entry boot penetrations
Multi-Product Flexibility: The wide sump surface area is designed to accommodate up to 4 product lines into the sump
Structural Integrity:Engineered with thick side walls to withstand backfill and high water table forces. Precise glass and resin metering throughout the molding process ensures material consistency and maximizes the strength-to-weight ratio
Smooth Sealing Surfaces for Leak-Tight Sump Entry Fittings: Our fully enclosed molding manufacturing method produces a uniform wall thickness while eliminating air entrapment. The result is a flat, smooth finish, both inside and out, which provides leak-tight pipe entries

The Kennedy Company has always prided itself on partnering with vendors who only offer top quality products they stand firmly behind and when it comes to rebuilt products and assemblies, we scrutinize them even more. While nobody can rebuild their own products like the original equipment manufacturer, we also partner with the top rebuilders in the industry such as PMP Corporation of Avon, CT.
We have decades of experience rebuilding equipment ourselves and have learned where the best products for the task at hand come from. The last thing anyone wants is to use rebuilt components that constantly fail or look of an inferior quality right out of their package.
PMP has proven to be one of the best rebuilders of petroleum equipment components from all the major manufacturers such as Bennett, Blackmer, Franklin Fueling, Gilbarco, Southwest/Schlumberger, Dresser-Wayne and Veeder-Root along with electronics components and printers from Citizen, Epson, IBM, Okidata and Star to name a few. They are constantly refining and improving their techniques and offerings, even manufacturing some of their own new replacement components in place of the (usually much more expensive) OEM versions.Check out a fraction of what the Kennedy Company has to offer from this top quality rebuilder through our eCommerce site with more coming online and ready to buy every day!
We try to maintain on-hand inventory for the most in-demand rebuilt replacement components being used in the field today from hydraulic components such as pumping units, meters and valves to electronic components such as displays, CPU/Logic boards, power supplies, printers and other electronics found in pumps, dispensers, intercoms, ATG, POS and FMS systems.And the Kennedy Company will ship all in-stock orders received by 3PM Eastern time the same day!
And if we don’t have it on our shelf? Don’t worry, top rebuilders like PMP can ship 85% of their offerings the SAME DAY for orders they receive by 3PM Eastern Time as well while the remaining 15% will ship the next business day! And for products that require the core up front? Most times, quality rebuilders like PMP will repair/rebuild and ship the same day they receive your core!
If you have already checked out some of the links above to our eCommerce pages, you will see we show you the EXCHANGEprice. This will be the final price you pay after we receive the rebuildable core of your old component. When you order any exchange item, you will also receive a Core Return Kitwith instructions on how your core should be prepared and packaged to return to us. The kit includes return instructions, a UPS return label and for those cores that have product run directly through them, a plastic bag with absorbent pad square to seal your core in priorto packaging. The bag and pad are a backup for any residual fuel that may seep during shipment back to the Kennedy Company but it is your responsibility to drain any remaining fuel from the core prior to packaging for return!We give you a maximum of 30 (thirty) days to return the core to receive your core credit unless otherwise noted.
When you click on a particular product to view the detail on the Kennedy eCommerce site, you will see on all the exchange products we offer, the outright priceyou pay at time of checkout, what you will receive for a core creditupon the Kennedy Company’s receipt of your rebuildable core and what the final price you end up paying after receiving your core credit. And unlike many online retailers, we do not take weeks to process returns and credits. If there are no problems or questions, WE PROCESS RETURNS AND CREDITS UPON RECEIPT!
EXTREMELY IMPORTANT: IT IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY TO DRAIN ALL REMAINING FUEL FROM YOUR CORE PRIOR TO PACKAGING FOR RETURN!!!!

An issue has been identified at an OPW supplier which has led to the immediate stoppage of sales of OPW swivel connector models 241 TPS Series and 36S with stamped manufacture dates between January 2013 and March 2017. This applies to 3/4 and 1 inch swivels. The specific models and date codes are listed on the Recall Alert as well as a list of the specific parts numbers affected.
OPW has identified a concern with a retaining rod used in the affected swivel connectors. In certain rare cases, the retaining rod may not perform as expected, resulting in unintended separation at the swivel connections, presenting a risk of fuel spillage. Additionally, while regulations and warnings prohibit the presence of ignition sources at the pump, there is a potential fire hazard if an ignition source is nevertheless present. Because the quality and safety of OPW products is paramount, they are stopping sales and recalling of all potentially affected swivels, effective immediately.
This communication pertains only to the specific swivels and hose kits identified on the Recall Alertand does not pertain to other OPW swivel models or products.
Here is an excerpt from the recall alert stressing the need to take immediate action on this recall notification:
IMMEDIATE ACTION REQUIRED:
Inspect your gas pumps and identify any OPW swivel connectors with the affected model numbers and within the affected date range.
Remove or replace all swivels with the affected model numbers and within the affected date range.
If the swivel was installed as part of a hose kit, only the swivel needs to be replaced, not the entire hose kit.
Register for the recall using the https://OpwSwivelRecall.expertinquiry.com website or by calling 1-866-562-5931 between 9am and 5pm EST Monday through Friday. You must provide contact information and certain information to identify the affected swivels to be replaced.
OPW will directly ship new, alternative swivels to replace your recalled swivels.
Tag and dispose of the recalled swivels per the instructions provided with your
new swivels.
REMOVE OR REPLACE AND DO NOT REUSE RECALLED SWIVELS. THERE IS A RISK OF FIRE, SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY, AND DEATH.
OPW regrets this inconvenience to you and your business and appreciates your patience as we work to ensure the safety and quality of our products.
