Product Overview
Pastoral station managers and horticultural growers operate the Aussie Quik Prime (QP209/L48E) electric start diesel gusher pump for effortless water transfer between irrigation lagoons and storage tanks. Key-switch electric starting provides quick activation for farm workers without physical recoil exertion. The cast iron open impeller moves muddy surface water steadily without choking.
Bulk fluid delivery achieves a maximum delivery rate of 700 L/min and develops a maximum elevation head of 28 m. Internal hydraulic architecture features a marine grade aluminium casing, an open vane cast iron transfer impeller, and a carbon ceramic mechanical seal with nitrile elastomers. Total equipment mass measures 45 kg in dry operating trim.
Mechanical drive is provided by a Yanmar L48 4.8HP electric start diesel engine (battery supplied separately) producing 4.8 HP. Plumbing connections incorporate 2" BSP male inlet & 2" BSP male outlet, and the self-priming wet end achieves 7.6 m vertical suction lift. Rapid self-priming internal dynamics pick up fluid swiftly without requiring manual foot valves on suction lines.
Structural fully welded steel roll frame with battery mounting tray encloses the equipment while isolating mechanical vibration and simplifying site movement. The structural mount provides balance during transport across field vehicles, trailers, and utility trays. Complete spare parts support and factory technical documentation are accessible through Aussie Pumps distribution networks across Australia.
