PackForge Portable Petrol Water Pump 7 HP, 3 Inch

What is a 7 HP portable petrol water pump?

The 170F engine spins an impeller in the pump body. With the casing primed, suction pulls water up through the 80 mm inlet from as far as about 7 m below. The pump then delivers about 900 to 1,000 litres per minute and can push it against a total head of roughly 28 to 30 m. A 3.6 litre tank of petrol runs the engine between refills.

Choose it when plots lie along a canal or river and the pump must shift between them, or when fields and construction pits need draining fast in the rains. It weighs 25 to 28 kg, so two people or a small vehicle move it. If your head is modest, the 6.5 HP pump uses less fuel. Water heavy with silt calls for a different pump.
