When durability and reliability are paramount in the rigorous environments of today’s mines and construction sites, our mining and construction pumps are a great solution. With more ways than one, these pumps are designed to be tossed, dragged and crammed into position to get the fluids you need removed in a hurry. Some of the most attractive features of these pumps are:
AODD pumps are air (or natural gas) operated displacement type pumps which uniquely differ from all other positive displacement pumps. As a result of air pressure acting on the entire surface of the diaphragm, the diaphragm is in a balanced condition while pumping. This measurably extends diaphragm life over that of mechanically operated diaphragm pumps. Because compressed air is limited, the maximum pressure developed by the pump is also safely limited. Thus, AODD pumps are appropriately selected for on-demand intermittent requirements.
The PortaPump® Submersible, Battery-Powered Pump operates using any 12-volt car or truck battery. It comes equipped with cables and battery clips. Extremely portable, the pump weighs only 33 pounds (15 kg) and can fit through openings as small as 10"" (25cm). Electrically safe and whisper quiet.
The SludgeMaster™ Submersible, Air-Powered Trash Pump handles mud, leaves, twigs, sand, sludge, trash-laden water and soft solids to 1 1/2"" (3.8cm). High capacity, low head. The pump weighs only 59 pounds (26kg), and can fit through an opening as small as 14"" (35cm). Sturdy construction for rough handling and long life. Optional rock screen available.
This centrifugal pump comes equipped with 30-ft cables and battery clips. The unit is portable and fits through openings as small as 10"" (25 cm).
The SludgeMaster 3"" (80 mm) submersible, air-powered trash pump handles mud, leaves, twigs, sand, sludge, trash-laden water and soft solids to 1½"" (40 mm).
This high-capacity, low-head centrifugal pump provides one of the highest flow rates of any Sandpiper® pump–up to 300 gpm (1,136 lpm)–and safely operates on compressed air and in areas where electric power is unavailable.
The SludgeMaster is made of an aluminum, sturdy construction for rough handling and long life. Other features include:
