Yamaha

Yamaha's new line of industrial trash pumps can move up to 180 gallons (YP20T), 317 gallons (YP30T) and 428 gallons (YP40T) of debris-laden water per minute. Each pump is self-priming and features a stainless steel wear plate, spheroidal graphite cast iron volute, Hi-chrome cast iron impeller, and silicon carbide mechanical seal for increased durability and extended pump life. A quick-access clean out plate is incorporated to reduce downtime. The overhead valve, air-cooled four-stroke, single-cylinder Yamaha MZ engines are designed with enhanced mufflers for quiet operation and are equipped with a low-oil warning system to prevent engine damage.

Les Ball, general superintendent for Crow Creek Construction, an underground utility contractor in Greeley, Colo., has been using the YP30T 3-inch trash pump for about one year. “The Yamaha YP30T is lightweight, easy for two guys to move around and reliable — even in the rain,” Ball says. “I've never had it not start or let me down. It's the best trash pump I've ever used.”

Godwin Pumps

A new hydraulic-driven submersible pump from Godwin Pumps features a remote actuated slurry gate that enables the pump to be used as a mixer in applications where sludges are so thick they are initially unpumpable. Uses for the pump include municipal or industrial wastewater treatment plant sludge tank cleaning and emptying. For durability, the Heidra 150VSG is designed with a cast iron pumpend and a cast chromium steel vortex impeller. Powered by a variable speed diesel engine for flexibility, this 6-inch pump handles flows up to 1,600 gallons per minute and heads up to 110 feet.

Gil Lopes, owner of G. Lopes Construction in Taunton, Mass., uses the Heidra 150VSG pump for irrigation. “We run them 24 hours a day, seven days a week, for two to three years straight,” Lopes says. “They're very reliable.”

Tsurumi

The Tsurumi model HS wastewater pump is equipped with an agitator and a specially designed suction strainer that incorporates flow reversing vanes. This combination allows the HS to liquefy the sand into suspension and thereby prevent sand locking of the unit. The semi-vortex impeller is urethane and the agitator is high chrome cast iron. This combination of materials provides for abrasion resistance and a long wearing life.

Brian Niekamp, president of Kris-Compaction Rentals in Houston, Texas, says he has been renting Tsurumi pumps to his customers for 10 years and says the HS model pumps are very reliable. One of Niekamp's contractors had to use the pumps for an extended period and called to order spare pump parts in advance. When he didn't hear from the contractor, Niekamp called him and found out that the contractor had been running the pumps continuously for six months and still didn't need the spare parts.

“The pump is economically priced and quality built,” Niekamp says.
