Trash pumps offer significant benefits to construction sites

2nd October 2015 By: David Oliveira - Creamer Media Staff Writer

Construction machinery, equipment and services provider Wacker Neuson recommends that construction sites use its PT range of trash pumps for a maintenance-friendly solution that quickly moves large quantities of water and solids from site work areas.

Wacker Neuson sales administrator Rainer Schmidt notes that the company’s trash pumps are available in suction and discharge diameters ranging from 50 mm to 150 mm at flow rates from 560 ℓ/m to 4 930 ℓ/m. He adds that the PT range of pumps can move solids ranging from 25 mm to 50 mm in diameter.

“The high flow rate, high head and capacity to handle large solids of Wacker Neuson’s PT pumps make them an ideal solution for construction sites,” he says.

The US-manufactured PT pumps can be fieldstripped without using tools, making the pump housings easy and fast to maintain and clean, Schmidt adds.

Wacker Neuson PT pumps are available with either petrol- or diesel-fuelled motors.
