SES trailer mounted flood pumps

(1/3) > >>

bajdas:
Just for your information, SES metro Units have now received some new trailer carried/mounted flood pumps.

I am advertising this because if we get another major flood event this year, you might come across them in use.

I cannot give you much technical detail. I saw two last weekend though. One on a pallet at SES State Store and one on a canvas covered 6x4 trailer for Prospect SES.

The most details that I have are from http://www.sturtrescue.com.au/pumptrailer.htm which is a special design mount trailer.

At last SES have some decent capacity in flood situations.

Hopefully someone else on this forum might be able to provide technical details if you want them.

Not on your life....other organisations with far greater expertise can handle that.

TillerMan:
Thats all well and good but they are pretty useless with those couplings on them, what if water needs to be pumped a few kms like in murrey bridge and you need to use fire service hose and a combined SES and fire service relay.
