Subaru to Exhibit Semi-Trash Pumps at World of Concrete 2016

LAS VEGAS (Feb. 2, 2016) — Suitable for handling water with small solids and light debris,

Subaru semi-trash pumps offer a heavy-duty overhead cam gasoline engine, a large volute

discharge opening and dependable performance. The line is backed by Subaru’s 5-year limited

warranty, covering both the engine and pump. Subaru will exhibit its semi-trash pumps on Feb.

2-5, 2016 at booth C4537 during World of Concrete in Las Vegas.

Subaru’s line of semi-trash pumps consists of two models: the PKX201ST and the PKX301ST.

The 2-inch PKX201ST is powered by the Subaru EX13, a 4.5-horsepower engine, and provides a

delivery volume of 153 gallons per minute. The 3-inch PKX301ST offers a delivery volume of

246 gallons per minute and is driven by the EX17, a 6.0-horsepower engine. The pump and

engine built as an integrated unit provides maximum performance and dependability.

The semi-trash pumps are constructed with heavy-duty materials to offer durability for the most

demanding job sites. A hardened cast-iron volute effectively withstands suspended particles and

small solids sucked through the strainer, while an abrasion-resistant, cast-iron three-blade

impeller and a replaceable wear plate ensure long life and low maintenance. After adding water

to the pump casing, the semi-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 and

hose band.

The semi-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.
