York Fluid Controls offers self-priming trash pumps for tough applications

The self-priming trash pump from York Fluid Controls

York Fluid Controls provides many high-quality pumps in the Canadian market. Among its top products is the Gorman Rupp™-style self-priming trash pump, which is perfect for dewatering and other applications in many industries.

Strong enough for hard solids

A trash pump is a portable, heavy-duty pump that is built to pump large amounts of water full of soft and hard solids. These pumps can typically move hundreds of gallons of fluid per minute without grinding up any materials, and they can process materials with particulates that would cause blockage in other centrifugal pumps.

This particular brand of self-priming trash pump is constructed of ductile iron, and an added special coating is recommended for abrasive work environments. Certain sizes are also available in 316 stainless steel. The pumps are also interchangeable with Gorman Rupp™ pumps and components.

York self-priming trash pumps come in four distinct sizes: three, four, six, and eight inches. Each has a maximum capacity of 2,900 gallons per minute and a maximum head of 115 feet, and it can handle up to 75 millimetres of solids. The pumps are also available in two general models, T and U, as well as Super T and Super U, which are similar to the leading brands of trash pumps.

These pumps are versatile enough to work well in many industries, but are particularly recommended for applications in food processing, water treatment, and chemical plants and refineries.

Designed, engineered, and built for the highest performance, and tough enough for hard solids and heavy-duty flow, York Fluid Controls’ self-priming trash pumps are an ideal choice.
