Features of Honda motor pumps
Motor pumps are needed in a variety of circumstances. They are equally effective in extinguishing fires and pumping out water. The correct choice of a specific model is of great importance. Consider the features and technical characteristics of Honda motor pumps.
Model WT-30X
For dirty water, the Honda WT-30X motor pump is ideal. Naturally, it will cope with both clean and slightly contaminated water. It is allowed to pump liquid clogged:
- sand;
- silt;
- stones up to 3 cm in diameter.
Working as intensively as possible, the pump can pump up to 1210 liters of water per minute. The created head reaches 26 m. The hourly fuel consumption of the AI-92 brand is 2.1 liters. The recoil starter must be pulled to start the pump. The Japanese manufacturer guarantees that the pump will be able to suck in water from a depth of 8 m.
Model WT20-X
Using the Honda WT20-X motor pump, you can pump up to 700 liters of contaminated water per minute. To make this possible, the manufacturer equipped the device with a 4.8 liter motor. with. The largest size of the permeable particles is 2.6 cm. The pump draws in water from a depth of up to 8 m, it can create a pressure of up to 26 m. The capacity of the gasoline tank is 3 liters.
With a size of 62x46x46.5 cm, the device weighs almost 47 kg. The designers made sure that it was possible to clean the hull without additional tools. Thanks to a wide range of additional components, you can significantly increase the operating time. Another positive aspect is the maximum use of wear-resistant materials. The capacity of the fuel tank allows you to pump out dirty water for 3 hours without interruption.
This device can be used:
- when to put out a fire;
- for pumping out heavily clogged liquid;
- to extract water from a pond, river and even a swamp;
- when draining flooded basements, ditches, pits and pits.
Model WB30-XT
The Honda WB30-XT motor pump is capable of pumping up to 1100 liters of water per minute or 66 cubic meters. m per hour. It creates a fluid pressure of up to 28 m. Having completely filled the tank, you can use the pump for about 2 hours. Its total weight is 27 kg, which makes it easy to move the device at your own discretion.
The system works great if you need:
- irrigate the field;
- deal with fire;
- drain the pool.
Even if the dimensions of the pool are 25x25 m, the motor pump will perfectly cope with pumping it out. It will take no more than 14 hours. The pumping unit can also be used in reservoirs, but only on condition that the particle size is no more than 0.8 cm.
Connection of hoses and pipes with a cross section of 3 inches is allowed. The reviews for this equipment are definitely positive.
Model WT40-X
The Honda WT40-X motor pump is optimized for pumping both clean and contaminated liquids. It can be used for pumping water containing grains of sand, silt deposits and even stones up to 3 cm in diameter. If the device is brought to the maximum intensive mode of operation, it pumps 1640 liters of liquid per minute. To ensure such performance, the engine will burn 2.2 liters of AI-92 gasoline every hour. To start the motor pump, a manual starter is used.
The total weight of the structure reaches 78 kg. Therefore, it is designed exclusively for stationary use. The pump can suck in water from a depth of 8 m. Its outer casing is made of an aluminum-silicon alloy.The water pressure can reach 26 m.
The capacity of the fuel tank is sufficient to maintain operation for approximately 3 hours.
Gasoline high-pressure unit
The pump of the Honda GX160 model is lightweight and small in size. It works great when pumping water at great heights. Therefore, this version of the pumping unit is actively used as an improvised firefighting equipment. A number of examples are known when a motor pump successfully contained even a fairly strong flame until the arrival of emergency services. The device is equipped with an impeller made of high strength cast iron.
The designers tried to increase the wear resistance of the mounts to the limit. Package Included:
- clamps;
- filtering systems;
- branch pipes.
It is important to consider that the Honda GX160 is capable of pumping only immaculately clean water. The largest permissible diameter of inclusions is 0.4 cm, and there should be no abrasive particles among them. At the same time, it is possible to provide a head up to 50 m (when taking liquid from a depth of up to 8 m).
Both the suction and ejection holes have a diameter of 4 cm. To operate the motor pump, you need AI-92 gasoline, which is poured into a 3.6 liter tank. The dry weight of the entire product is 32.5 kg.
Another version of the mud pump
We are talking about the Honda WB30XT3-DRX model. The Japanese company equips this pump with a motor of its own production. The engine runs in four-stroke mode. The pumping unit can pump water containing particles up to 0.8 cm. Thanks to the spacious fuel tank, the pump can be used continuously for a long time.
According to the developers, the frame is designed for maximum stability both during operation and when moving to another location. The water coming out of the hole with a diameter of 8 cm rises by 8 m. In 1 minute, the pump pumps 1041 liters of liquid. It starts with a manual starter. The scope of delivery includes clamps, nuts and filters.
Nuances of use
Honda motor pumps are used wherever an economical, safe and environmentally friendly device is needed. According to the manufacturer, it is possible to move any model of the pumping unit without any problems. Even after many years of use, the basic operating parameters remain stable. Engineers were able to select the most wear-resistant materials and parts.
All models are equipped with high-performance four-stroke engines. Test results have confirmed that these engines emit even fewer gas and dust particles than specified in quality standards. There are devices that prevent accelerated wear of working parts when the engine oil supply is depleted. Fill oil only into a cooled engine. But it is advisable to drain it immediately after stopping, then it will turn out better.
For the highest tightness of the motor pump shaft, oil seals are used. In trade catalogs and in information documents of service centers, they can also be called mechanical seals. In any case, these parts are subdivided into mechanical and ceramic segments. They should snuggle as tightly as possible to each other.
If the pump oil seal suddenly fails, you need to urgently contact the service center. By fixing defects early, you can avoid costly repairs.
It is important to take into account that Honda motor pumps (regardless of the specific model) are unsuitable for pumping or pumping out chemically active liquids. Do not use clean water seals on pumping installations intended for pumping dirty water (and vice versa). Among the parts necessary to restore the performance of Honda motor pumps are invariably present:
- manual starters;
- fully assembled gas tanks;
- bolts for fixing housings and flanges;
- vibration isolators;
- intake and exhaust valves;
- adjusting nuts;
- mufflers;
- carburetors;
- crankcases;
- ignition coils.
