New/used pump im picking up

**FLORIN** · 03-17-2010, 01:21 AM

I am picking this pump next week when I have a job in the area. Right now it is powered by a 3 phase electric motor but will prob resell the motor seperate and put a 20hp gas motor on it. Picking the whole setup for $200. Yes, it is 17gpm !!!! I cant wait to get it going. It going on my condo complex wash rig along a 12gpm(after I put in a new bearing) a 8.5gpm and 2 - 4gpms. Got 6 huge complexes this spring already on the books 15 open bids still out and putting new bids almost every day.

Hey Florin, The SFD called, and they want their pump back!

If a wildfire breaks out in my neighborhood, my house will be well protected.

It will be limited where I could use that machine due to water flow but for condo complexes I beleive will be a perfect fit. Gonna have to put my fire hydrant use permit to use more often.

You're going to need a massive pulley on the pump to spin it slow enough (750 rpm). Here's a spec sheet on it. According to the sheet, it's rated for 14.6 gpm continuous @750 rpm and 17 gpm intermittent @ 890 rpm.

It has a big pulley on there now with the electric motor but will check what I need when convert to gas motor.
