EQUIPMENT
Australian
Pump offers a
comprehensive
range of Honda
powered, petrol
drive pumps from
1” through to 6”.
“We choose only
Honda for our
petrol engine
range of Aussie QP
pumps because
of their reliability,
market popularity
and national
aftermarket
support,”Aussie
Pump’s Product
Manager, Brad
Farrugia said.
“All of our pumps are superbly match
tested so as not to overload what we
believe is the world’s best petrol drive
industrial air cooled engine,” he said.
The product range starts with Aussie’s
Ultralite Model QP1 powered by a 1hp
lightweight 4 stroke Honda engine.
These lightweight, high speed 1” pumps
produce up to 40m head and flows to
120 litres per minute.
A bigger version, suitable for personal
firefighting protection, water transfer
and even light sprayer irrigation duties
is available in a dual 1” and 1.1/2”
configuration powered by Honda’s
GXH50 lightweight high speed engine.
“The GXH50 engine is amazing,” Brad
said. “It delivers the power right where
you want it. It enables our pumps to
outperform others. It’s the perfect match
of pump hydraulic design and engine
capability that provides the excellent
performance,” he said.
Aussie’s Fire Chief and Mr T twin impeller
have set new standards for performance
and reliability in the field.
“You will note we are the only company
that offers a five year warranty on
products like this, not only in Australia
but right through the South Pacific and
Asia,” Brad said.
Bigger pumps for tanker applications
Aussie’s Honda team
Aussie Pumps, supplier of high pressure fire pumps and
engine drive transfer pumps, has joined with Honda for
this season's fire and El Nino conditions.
feature in Aussie’s “Gusher” range. These
3” and 4” transfer pumps are built to high
quality standards.
“We hear horror stories every day
about either grey imports or third world
clones letting customers down in both
fire and water transfer applications.
Paradoxically, failures seem to occur
when the pump is needed most in vital
applications that can include firefighting
or stock watering,” he said.
Aussie’s Brigade Boss series provides
high pressure and high flow from big
3” and 4” pumps. The Brigade Boss will
develop heads of up to 70m (that’s 100psi
approximately) and flows to 1,200lpm.
The pumps are powered by 13hp Honda
petrol engines, warranted and supported
by Honda’s aftermarket support program,
in Australia and around the world.
“Aussie Pumps owes a huge amount
of its success as Australia’s foremost
self-priming pump manufacturer/
distributor to the support we get from
Honda’s quality, engineering advice
and aftermarket program. Our advice to
consumers? It’s simple: don’t waste your
time with third world pumps driven by
copy Honda engines. Go for the original
with the best pump in the business,” Brad
said.
