Supersilent Pumps

With the legislation of exhaust emissions bringing static engines to comply with the Tier III turbo market, we use Iveco’s Industrial N45MSTX20 Tier III 93kW (126hp) 4 cyl turbo after cooled engine. This engine has a balanced crank shaft (not all engines have) and is semi-electronic (this suits static engines better) with a high torque at medium revs which is ideally suited to the Caprari 80-4/3 pump. It features very good fuel consumption (1.2 gallon per hour on testing at 1,700 rpm).

Standardising on the 93kW engine means the pump set can work anywhere – from the plains of Suffolk to the high lifts needed in Scotland.

For the high flow pump we use the Iveco NEF67MNT 6 cyl turbo engine, which is also Tier III compliant.

The new GCEP125W pump is mounted on a 385 gallon (1,750 litre fully bunded fuel chassis). A fully enclosed engine and pump in a super silent acoustic cabinet (72dB at 1m) with fully opening side doors for easy maintenance. A push button high speed vacuum electric priming and engine start, water metre with pulse for very accurate no-flow and high-flow (burst pipe protection) shut down, linked to the very successful Greencrop engine protection panel with water level and temperature sensor, engine oil pressure and an anytime changeable hour run timer. It also has a soft start up and shut down control.

All are standard to make managing irrigation easier.

An extra for the pump is a mobile phone auto prime start/stop to monitor irrigation in real-time, using either mobile phone SMS messaging or through an online web browser.

For added security we have now introduced a detachable drawbar as standard and we also offer Datatag/CESAR commercial security & registration systems.

The pump is finished off in high quality hardened paint.
