Subaru Showcasing Rugged Trash Pumps at World of Concrete 2016

LAS VEGAS (Feb. 2, 2016) — Subaru Industrial Products’ PKX301T Trash Pump

combines a powerful engine, heavy-duty construction and reliable performance to move

high volumes of trash water without clogging the pump. Additionally, the Trash Pumps

are backed by Subaru’s 5-year limited warranty program, which covers both the pump

and engine. Subaru will exhibit its PKX301T Trash Pumps on Feb. 2-5, 2016 at booth

C4537 during World of Concrete in Las Vegas.

The centrifugal-type pumps are available in models with 2-, 3- and 4-inch discharge

outlets. A Subaru overhead cam or overhead valve gasoline engine powers each model.

The pump and engine built as an integrated unit provides maximum performance and

dependability.

The 2-inch PKX201T is powered by the EX17, a 5.7-horsepower overhead cam engine,

and offers a delivery volume of 185 gallons per minute, while the 3-inch PKX301T is

powered by the EX27, a 9.0-horsepower overhead cam engine, and offers a delivery

volume of 314 gallons per minute. The 4-inch PTV405T is powered by the EH34D, an

11.0-horsepower overhead valve engine, and offers a delivery volume of 528 gallons per

minute. The 2-inch model can handle solid debris up to 3/4 inch, and the 3- and 4-inch

models can handle solid debris up to 1-1/4 inches.

Subaru trash pumps are constructed with high-quality, heavy-duty materials to offer

durability for the most demanding jobsites. A hardened cast-iron volute effectively

withstands suspended sticks, stones and other debris sucked through the strainer, while an

abrasion-resistant, cast-iron three-blade impeller and replaceable wear plate ensure long

life and low maintenance. After adding water to the pump casing, all trash pumps are

self-priming, and the advanced volute design drives water straight into the cavity for fast

priming. The silicon-carbide seal increases the durability of the self-lubricating

mechanical seal and provides many hours of trouble-free service.

A rugged, long-lasting strainer is standard and protects pump components from large

solids, while the hole diameter helps prevent large debris from entering the suction hose.

A strong aluminum die-cast housing withstands the debris allowed. For durability and

protection, a heavy-duty steel roll cage wraps around the entire pump. Other standard

features include a toolkit, hose band and three-year warranty. The PTV405T also includes

hose couplings.

The trash pumps offer a low-tone muffler and a sound-suppressing air cleaner for quiet

operation and meet EPA/CARB emission standards. The pumps also feature a U.S. Forest

Service-approved spark arrestor.

The automatic decompression, easy-pull recoil starter and Hot Spark® ignition system

provide easy and reliable starting. The large-capacity fuel tank extends operation time,

while its special coating helps prevent rust from forming inside the tank. A large fuel

opening allows easy pouring and the cleanable mesh intake strainer helps prevent debris

from reaching the engine. Four extra-large anti-vibration mounts ensure a smooth-

running engine and keep the unit from shifting during operation.

Routine maintenance can be completed in the field with common hand tools. Four

stainless steel cap screws hold together the aluminum casings, and all wear parts are

exposed when the cover is removed, making maintenance convenient. The large plastic

plugs make draining and filling easier and eliminate corrosion between the plugs and

casing. Additionally, suction and discharge nipples have standard NPT fittings for quick,

easy hose connections.
