Heavy-duty construction for reliable high volume work

Subaru Trash Pumps combine a powerful engine, heavy-duty construction and reliable performance to move high volumes of trash water without clogging the pump.

The centrifugal-type pumps are available in models with two-, three- and four-inch discharge outlets. A Subaru overhead cam or overhead valve gasoline engine powers each model. The pump and engine are built as an integrated unit that provides maximum performance and dependability. The two-inch PKX201T is powered by the EX17, a 6-hp overhead cam engine, and offers a delivery volume of 185 gallons per minute, while the three-inch PKX301T is powered by the EX27, a 9-hp overhead cam engine, and offers a delivery volume of 314 gallons per minute. The four-inch PTV405T is powered by the EH34, an 11.0-horsepower overhead valve engine, and offers a delivery volume of 528 gallons per minute. The two-inch model can handle solid debris up to 3/4 inch, and the three- and four-inch models can handle solid debris up to 1-1/4 inches. Subaru trash pumps are constructed with high-quality, heavy-duty materials to offer durability for the most demanding jobsites. A hardened cast-iron volute effectively withstands suspended sticks, stones and other debris sucked through the strainer, while an abrasion-resistant, cast-iron, three-blade impeller and replaceable wear plate ensure long life and low maintenance. After adding water to the pump casing, all trash pumps are self-priming, and the advanced volute design drives water straight into the cavity for fast priming. The silicon-carbide seal increases the durability of the self-lubricating mechanical seal and provides many hours of trouble-free service.
