Emergency response and fire protection environments are the primary service environments for this portable engine-driven pump. It is engineered for rapid deployment in fire protection scenarios where clean water must be delivered with high pressure from mobile or stationary water sources. The unit is designed for rugged service duty in demanding rural and civil conditions.
This model is powered by a high-performance Honda GX160 petrol engine featuring a manual recoil start configuration. Hydraulic performance reaches upto 59 m of head and delivers a maximum flow rate of upto 600 L/Min. These specifications support firefighting and emergency water delivery where electrical power is unavailable.
The hydraulic design utilizes a single stage centrifugal impeller configuration optimized for rapid self-priming behavior. This design allows the pump to quickly establish suction from dams, tanks, or creeks for immediate operation. The closed impeller design delivers high head pressure while the improved self-priming capability supports efficient water transfer where power is unavailable or portability is required.
Construction hardware includes a marine grade aluminium pump body for superior structural durability and corrosion resistance. The unit features a versatile 3-way discharge arrangement with a 40 mm main outlet and dual 25 mm outlets for simultaneous hose operation. Structural integrity is reinforced by high-quality internal seals and a rugged engine mount that ensures stability during engine operation.
