Subaru

Subaru introduces the PTX301D diaphragm pump, featuring 3-inch suction and discharge ports. The self-priming PTX301D model pumps up to 250 gpm at a maximum pressure of 21 psi. It offers a maximum suction lift of 25 feet and a maximum lift head of 49 feet. The design completely isolates the pump mechanism from the fluid being moved, making the model suited for pumping abrasives, slurries, re-circulated water and other high-solid-material content, up to 2 inches, that cannot be handled by a centrifugal pump. There are no moving parts, so the pump can run dry indefinitely.

Gorman-Rupp

Gorman-Rupp expands its Prime Aire line to include the new PAV3B60C-3TNV70 pump. The heart of this 3-inch model uses a patent-pending vortex impeller with Gorman-Rupp's Staggerwing design, which represents a dramatic improvement over other standard vortex impeller designs, the maker says. The design allows this model to pass a 3-inch solid through all critical areas of the pump. The PAV3B60C-3TNV70 is powered by a Yanmar water-cooled diesel engine that is EPA-certified to meet Interim Tier-4 emission standards.

Cat Pumps

Cat Pumps introduces two new high-performance pressure-cleaning pumps rated at 5.5 gpm and 3,500 psi. The model 5CP5140 pump features a dual-extended shaft for pulley drive from either side of the pump using either a gas engine or an electric motor. The model 5CP5140G1 (pictured) is fitted with a gearbox for mounting directly onto any standard 1-inch shaft gas engine. Both models are designed to offer drive flexibility and rugged high-pressure cleaning in a compact, lightweight footprint.

Thompson Pump

Thompson's JSC Series solids handling ENVIROPRIME pump is engineered with heavy-duty cast-iron construction and the ability to dry-prime and re-prime automatically. The portable JSC Series features pumps that range in size from 3 to 18 inches, are designed for high flows to 11,000 gpm, and have maximum heads to 330 feet. These end-suction centrifugal pump ends can handle solids up to 4 inches and are available as diesel or electric driven. The ENVIROPRIME compressor-assisted dry priming system prevents blow-by, such as sewage and waste, from discharging onto the ground, making this unit more environmentally friendly.
