Self-Priming Pumps

Diesel Self-Priming Pumps

Pumping Services has a huge rental fleet of diesel driven trash pumps covering discharge sizes from 3-12 inches, flows to 6,000 GPM and a variety of head options. They are available in self-priming or prime assisted configurations and are ideal for sewage bypass pumping or anywhere else liquids containing solids must be transferred. Self-priming and prime assisted pumps are not good in applications where suction lift exceeds 25 feet. Our pumps are available with the following features:

• Extended use fuel tanks
• Trailer mounted
• Sound attenuation
• Automatic stop/start controls
• High level alarms

Pumps with 3 and 4 inch discharges are available with lightweight air cooled diesels and rugged aluminum volutes for ease of transfer around jobsites.

Electric Self-Priming Pumps

Electric driven self-priming pumps are a great alternative to diesel driven pumps if adequate power or generators are available on site and the size of the opening to the liquid being pumped precludes the use of an electric submersible pump. They are quieter and more reliable than diesel driven pumps and do not need to be refueled when connected to the electric grid. Pumping Services offers electric driven self-priming pumps in discharges through 12 inches. They come standard with automatic stop/start controls. They should not be used in applications where suction lift exceeds 25 feet.

Gas Self-Priming Pumps

We offer gasoline driven self-priming trash pumps through 4” discharge with Honda engines.
