Flood pump on three-point hitch
To respond to a flood quickly and to react independently, a municipal construction yard responsible for flood protection was looking for several mobile pumps. It was important for them to have powerful, mains-free, solids-resistant pumps which could be easily used anywhere. The customer chose three Boerger Rotary Lobe Pumps with PTO drive. Besides the proven quality of the Boerger Rotary Lobe Pumps and their high performance, it was the easy handing which was the decisive factor for the customer.
Each compact rotary lobe pump is mounted on a three-point hitch. This standard three-point hitch can be mounted on an Unimog truck or a tractor at the front or rear of the vehicle and driven straight to the application site. Sufficient ground and off-road clearance is also provided to be able to drive through flooded or difficult terrain.
As this type of design does not have its own drive or need a chassis, it is a very cost-effective version. The pump is run using the vehicle's PTO. The customer is extremely satisfied with the three Boerger mobile pumps and well-equipped in the event of a disaster.
