When it comes to climate, there is no normal.
The team at Aussie Pumps can see the possibility of a fire season from hell ahead, with either flood or drought as part of the equation.
Our Chief Engineer has been working on new product developments over the winter and are now launching new pumps that can make a difference to the three climate issues, drought, flood and bushfires.
WHAT A WHOPPER!
One of the new pump concepts designed over the last months is Aussie’s QP205HF/GX200.
Latest Stories
It’s based on the Aussie Fire Chief, the pump that changed the way people think about high pressure bushfire fighting.
We developed a new impeller and volute that provides a real difference.
The pump was nicknamed the “Whopper” because a farmer saw it at a field day recently and saw the performance curve.
His comment … “What a Whopper!”
The pump delivers more water at pressure.
The pump is priced way below list prices of our competitors but produces up to 480 litres per minute and a maximum head of 67 metres.
In a drought, it can transfer water fast from dam to dam.
In a heavy downfall it can do the same thing to maximise water retention.
FIRE SEASON AHEAD … ENTER THE ‘IMPOSTER’
You don’t need to be a weather forecaster to realise that we are heading for a blistering summer.
Seeing the events of the Northern Hemisphere over their summer, you get a taste of what it’s going to be like with 40 plus degree temperatures.
The CFA and the volunteers are well aware of the danger and again, Aussie has worked hard to provide advanced products that will perform better than any other similar equipment.
A new version of the Fire Chief that has extraordinarily high pressure is part of the work we have been doing.
We worked with Honda to match the GX160 5.5 hp to an Aussie Fire Chief that will now deliver up to 90 metres head with a single impeller.
That performance is normally equated to a twin impeller pump.
It’s nicknamed the “IMPOSTER” because it’s a single impeller pump that think’s it’s a twin.
That means a lower price point with a huge single 7” impeller that enables the pump to outperform all competitors.
The pump comes in a powder coated steel frame which makes it easy to handle, or it can be mounted on Aussie’s Fire Cart.
AUSSIE BUSHFIRE SURVIVAL GUIDE
It’s free.
This indispensable guide provides information on how to protect both farm and Urban Interface properties.
Now in its 2025 edition, Aussie continues to build additional information into the guide.
It’s based on real life experiences from professional firefighters, volunteers and homeowners working towards protecting property and lives.
The guide help to select the right equipment from pump and engine to hose and nozzle kits.
All aimed at getting the very best result in an emergency.
AUSSIE’S DAIRY PACKAGE
The company has worked hard on supporting dairy farms over the last 30 years.
They now present a package designed specifically helping dairies to be more cost effective.
KEEPING BALES AND YARDS CLEAN AND TIDY
Aussie’s new high pressure steamer cleans and sanitises at the same time.
The big Aussie Admiral produces 3,000 psi pressure and flows up to 19 lpm.
The best part is the machine is ideal for applications involving up to 10 hour a day duties.
It’s a favourite with mines and big construction companies as well.
The big flow provides an adequate stream to remove animal waste and the steam temperature up to 130 degrees C, enables a complete hygienic process.
The Aussie Admiral is available to dairy farmers at a special price for spring.
Call your local Aussie Pump dealer.
WASTE PUMP CORROSION FREE
All dairies need to pump corrosive liquid like whey and contaminated water.
These liquids can be valuable liquids in terms of potential fertiliser as well.
Aussie’s new 316 stainless steel self priming centrifugal pumps are available in electric motor drive (single or three phase) or even engine drive configuration.
Big 3” and 4” pumps will move corrosive liquids up to 2,000 lpm with heads as high as 35 metres.
That’s vertical head.
Aussie’s pumps are self priming and will lift through a six metre vertical hose or pipe.
The reason Aussie went 316 SS is because they saw too many worn out cast iron pumps.
They even changed out the impellers in cast iron 6” pumps, part of their upgrade campaign, to 316 SS impellers.
Aussie’s 6” dairy waste pump, also favoured by local government bodies, produces flows over 4,000 lpm.
It’s economic as well, and Aussie can get amazing performance from these big 6” trash pump with a 15 kw two pole motor.
For further information, call your local Aussie Pump Shop and they will give you the full details.
