Single Foam Pump Pontoon, 180 kg Capacity

Description

Overview

This single foam 6mm pump pontoon is the lightest in the range. It is a foam-filled float that carries a submersible pump, up to 180 kg in total, so the pump draws clean water from just under the surface and rides up and down with the water level.

It is designed to sit 70% submerged at rated load, with a 30% safety factor on top. Pontoons are quoted per order, so send us your pump model and we will give you a price.

Key features

• Foam-filled floating body in single foam 6mm construction
• Handles up to 180 kg of pump and fittings
• Designed for 70% submergence with a 30% safety factor
• Draws from just below the surface, away from sediment on the bottom
• Rises and falls with the dam or river level
• The smallest of the pontoons, below the double foam 340 kg pontoon

Where it works

It suits smaller jobs: a farm dam feeding a stock-water line in the Karoo, a river pump for a market garden in KwaZulu-Natal, or a rainwater pond on a smallholding. Contractors also float pumps on construction dams to keep water clear of the mud.

Weigh the pump, cable and fittings together and stay under 180 kg. For heavier pumps look at the triple foam 10mm pontoon. The wider submersible pumps range is one click away.
