1000 L Horizontal Honey Sucker Skid Unit, 6.5 HP Petrol

Description

Overview

This 1000l honey sucker is a horizontal tank on a steel frame with a 6.5 HP petrol engine and a 3 inch centrifugal trash pump. It empties septic tanks, conservancy tanks and pit toilets at up to about 50,000 L/h and unloads through a layflat hose at an approved disposal point.

The horizontal tank sits lower than an IBC, so a full load rides steadier on corrugations and side slopes. If you want to stay with the square IBC, see the 1000 L IBC honey sucker with diesel trash pump. For half as much again in one trip, step up to the 1500 L honey sucker skid unit.

Where it works

A 1000l honey sucker on a frame suits operators in hilly country: the Drakensberg foothills, the Mpumalanga escarpment and the Eastern Cape, where an upright tank would sway. Lodges, mission hospitals and farm schools with conservancy tanks book regular collections, and municipalities use it for VIP toilets in villages without sewer lines.
