Engine Driven Self Priming Pumps

The Davey range of engine driven self priming pumps offers you versatility for a variety of applications:

  • Firefighting
  • Water transfer
  • Irrigation
  • Boom spraying
  • Agricultural spraying such as sheep jetting
  • Deep well jet pump applications

Depending on the required flow and pressure, you can select which type of pump in the engine driven self priming pump range suits your needs:

5 Series Firefighter® and Firefighter Plus

Depend on Davey to take yet another quantum leap forward with their NEW 5 Series Firefighter® range. These new pumps offer a host of new features to make installation, operation and maintenance easier, quicker and more dependable. Designed with the needs of the end user in mind, the NEW 5 Series single and twin impeller models set new standards for convenience and durability. The NEW 5 Series range also offer class leading performance and not just in the workshop. The NEW models provide superior self priming and performance at suction lifts, providing you with confidence when lifting water from a river or dam! The NEW 5 Series also includes a larger capacity single impeller range of Firefighter® 9hp+ models.

For easy identification, all single stage Firefighter models have YELLOW casings. Firefighter Plus two stage models have RED casings.

SUCTION CONFIGURATION
The pump inlet is incorporated into a compact suction housing, with easy access to the suction flap valve and the other pump internals.

CHOICE OF SUCTION SIZES
The suction housing comes standard as 1½" BSP, but is available as 2" for larger horsepower models, and in NPT threads for selected markets.

LARGER CAPACITY TWIN IMPELLER CASINGS
To ensure the fastest self priming times, the new twin impeller models feature a larger suction housing.

LARGER PRIMING AND DRAIN PORTS
Not only does this make it easier to fill your pump for priming, but also makes it easier to drain and flush the pump out after use.

BAYONET STYLE PRIMING AND DRAIN PLUGS
Incorporating a decompression function and a safety retention system, these new plugs make it easy to safely access the priming and drain ports. With no tools required, a simple 90 degree twist of the wrist and the plug can be released.

INTEGRAL HANDLE
Conveniently positioned and comfortable to grip, the new handle saves on weight without compromising strength.

FOUR-WAY DISCHARGE
Allows for easy installation and more connection options with 2 x 1½" and 2 x 1" outlets. Standard on all single and twin impeller models up to 7hp.

THREE-WAY DISCHARGE
Allows for easy installation and more connection options with 1 x 2" and 2 x 1" outlets, plus a huge 1½" priming port which can also be used as a discharge port. This discharge is standard on all 9hp, 10hp and 13hp models.

DUAL FLOATING NECK RINGS
Patented independently floating neck rings are fitted both front and rear of the impeller to ensure optimal pump performance is maintained, even after weeks of abuse.

THRUST BALANCE
All centrifugal pumps are capable of subjecting axial (parallel to the shaft) thrust to the engine. The higher the pressure the greater thrust potentially created, which can shorten engine life. The NEW 5 Series Firefighter® range incorporate a thrust balance drum and pressure equalization holes in the impeller. This special design helps extend engine life.

PATENTED CLAMPED IMPELLERS
Davey's unique clamped impeller design allows for optimum impeller shape and internal surface finish for increased performance. Amazingly this patented feature also makes it possible to quickly disassemble the impeller/s, making cleaning accidental obstructions easier.

HIGH QUALITY EPDXY POWDER COATED CASINGS
Not only do the NEW 5 Series Firefighter® pumps feature the high quality Davey powder coat finish on the outside, they also have the same high quality finish on the inside! This resilient finish helps to extend the life of your NEW Davey pump.

Borehole Applications
Firefighter® and Firefighter® Plus models can be fitted with a deep well injector to draw water from bores where no electrical power is available.
Three different jet/venturi kits are available for use with either a 4" or 5" injector body kit.
The performance shown is indicative for a 5155H at full speed or a 5255H at 3000rpm throttle setting.
