Self Priming Hydraulics

with big suction lift

Diesel driven

  • lower unit: centrifugal pump (1) coupled with hydraulic motor (2). Standard submerged design wet well installation centrifugal pump horizontal or vertical, normal suction or self-priming with built-in air-stage depending on installation level.

  • upper unit: as compact-unit. With diesel engine (3) ai or water-cooled with radiator, for remote and direct start and possible with secondary starting equipment.

Self Priming Hydraulics Firefighting Units

Diesel engine ready assembled with hydraulic pump (4) and necessary fittings. The hydraulic tank (5) on the same base frame (6). Cooling of hydraulic oil with ai or seawater cooler (7). Fuel tank (8) in the base frame.

Electrically driven as described above, but upper unit driven by means of electric-motor (9) with switchboard (10).

Feeder / booster-pump design

  • To save energy or to make the lower unit not to heavy, this unit will be used only as feeder pump and the upper unit will be equipped with booster pump.

  • installed at a pier in the harbour
    The water is taken from the river by means of a hydraulically driven submersible pump.
    The station transfers the water into a ring pipeline
