PumpEng launched the JetGuard dewatering pump in the USA. Trials of the pump in Australia show it has fewer breakdowns, lower repair costs, and a longer service life than predecessor pumps.
Australian mine sites have reported “improvement over lost time failures up 400%,” the supplier reported.
The all-metal pump protects internal parts from shotcrete fibers in wastewater.
Pumps rated at 15 and 30 hp were released to the USA market.
