Sykes Pumps’ super-silenced pump

Continuing its investment in the development of a range of super-silenced pumps, 7253 Sykes Pumps has launched its new MH150/100 Super Wispaset.

Applications include pressure testing, batching plant washing, emergency or temporary fire mains and any situation where high vertical and/or long discharge runs are required.

Employing a 129kW 3691 Iveco engine, the unit is capable of heads up to 105m, with a maximum flow rate of 320m³/hour and noise levels down to an average of 70dBA at 7m. The pump is set to run at 1,800rpm which means that fuel costs can be lower and engine noise reduced.

“For a number of years now, we’ve made a very deliberate effort in bringing new pumps to the market that have a clear focus on sound attenuation, durability and fuel economy,” says Chris Graham, pump development director.
