Hydraulic Fill Pump
Model: Aussie Poly Pump 15th July 2009
A range of 2” and 3” fast fill liquid fertilizer pumps with
hydraulic drive have been released by Australian
Pump industries. Part of the Aussie Poly pump
range, the hydraulic versions offer big self propelled
sprayer operators the ability to carry a tank filling
pump onboard the sprayer. This facility minimises
refilling time and eliminates the need for separate engine
drive chemical pumps.
The Aussie Poly pumps offer farmers real efficiencies
with the ability to pump liquids at up to 1,100 litres per
minute. That means reloading times can be cut to a
minimum, improving efficiency and allowing contractors
to complete cycles faster and at reduced costs.
Both 2” and 3” configurations of the pump offer a
choice of either high flow or high pressure impeller.
The high pressure version allows heads of up to 35
metres, that’s 50 psi, whilst the high flow 2” unit offers
up to 700 litres per minute flow.
Spray operators wanting to refill in the absolute minimum time like the 3” version because of its huge 1,100
lpm flow rate.
The pumps are manufactured from 30% glass filled polyester, a material that is both strong, light and compatible
with most agricultural chemicals. Polypropylene internal parts are also available. A range of elastomers
including Viton and EPDM allow compatibility with virtually all agricultural chemicals. Optional Buna
N seals and check valves enable these versatile pumps to handle both salt water and oil based products
including diesel fuel.
The hydraulic drive is provided by a compact motor close coupled through a purpose designed pedestal
arrangement with direct drive to the pump’s impeller. The design is simple, efficient and trouble free.
Aussie Poly pumps are widely used by the military, in aquaculture and for decanting chemicals used in
both the manufacturing industry and agriculture.
“Because these pumps are made from injection moulded glass filled polyester, there is no machining required
and performance is perfect first time, every time” said Aussie Pumps Product Manager, John
Whiteley.
Incorporating the hydraulic motor in the circuit of a self propelled or even towed style spray rig is easy and
can be carried out by any experienced hydraulics fitter.
