Hydraulic piston pumps

Hydraulic piston pumps

Tough jobs need tough equipment. Manure is hard on machinery so Valmetal piston pumps are built heavy, and easy-service features keeps them running like new. Our three types of hydraulic piston pump provide smooth, quiet transfer of manure. Their low-speed action and their simple design ensure maximum life and minimum maintenance.

Benefits

Easy to install and maintain. Extremely reliable choice for long hours of use. Low horsepower requirements. Completely silent operation. Integrates into your automated manure handling system.

3 models for all types of manure Reinforced pumping chamber 9 models of hydraulic power units are available to maximize performance Few moving part for low maintenance

Which type of pump to choose?

Type of livestock Type of manure Type and amount of bedding used Distance from outside pit Barn layoute Elevations

While all of these factors influence the pump selection, your dealer will perform a manure consistency test and our engineers will make a discharge pressure calculation to pinpoint the ideal choice for your needs.

Features

Hydraulic power unit

The hydraulic pump operates at high efficiency and completely silently. The pump is immersed in the oil reservoir, keeping it cool and clean. Sensors on the unit protect the pump from operating over-temperature or with low oil level. The removable tank allows easy access to the pump and filters.

Reversing switch

Reversing of the hydraulic cylinder is smooth and gentle. The pressure-activated system ensures the motor cannot be overloaded or stalled, and eliminates the wear and adjustments of mechanical reversing systems for maximum reliability.

Pipes and fittings

Matching the correct size and quality of pipe to the application is critical. Valmetal manufactures fittings and adapters for a wide range of pipes. Our clamp kits prevent pipe joints from separating. These are strongly recommended for transfer of heavily bedded/ solid manure and for any pipe where air flushing will be employed.

Actual pumping distance may be greater or less, depending on actual manure consistency.

3 models for all types of manure

The Liqui-Trans pump is the choice for transferring liquid, homogeneous manure over long distances, where bedding fibers are short and well integrated.

The Semi-Trans pump is the choice for cubicles with sand bedding. Its robust construction enables it to efficiently transfer semi-solid to semi-liquid manure over long distances.

The Solid-Trans pump can be installed in a dry pit, or half-buried in a shallow pit installation. It works effectively on solid, consistent manure without the need for mixing.
