Product details
About the Davey Double Impeller Base Unit | Fire Fighter No Tank
The SafeQuip Davey Double Impeller Base Unit is a twin impeller fire fighting pump unit supplied without a tank, ready to pair with your own water tank. It comes with a 30 m delivery hose and a 5 m suction hose assembly with a quick coupling on suction. Besides fire fighting, it suits tanker-to-tanker water transfer, high-head general water transfer, sheep jetting, irrigation and boom spraying.
Key features
- Twin impeller pump, best suited to medium-volume applications
- 30 m delivery hose and 5 m suction hose assembly with quick coupling on suction
- Patented clamped impeller design for longer impeller life, improved performance and easier disassembly in the case of blockage
- Corrosion-resistant marine-grade aluminium pump casings, diffusers and impellers
- Patented floating neck rings front and back that improve pumping efficiency, extend seal life and reduce engine wear
- No stepped tank included
Choosing the right one
When pairing a base unit with your own tank, check that the 5 m suction hose reaches the tank outlet and that the fittings match, and that your bakkie or trailer can carry the tank when full, at about 1 kg per litre of water. A twin impeller pump like this one develops more pressure than a single impeller unit, which helps with high-head transfer, longer hose runs and jetting. Leave room for the 130 × 56 × 66 cm footprint and for storing the hoses.
