Tsurumi to Represent Primax Pumps in Europe

Tsurumi Europe is continuing to expand its range of specialist pumping solutions with the addition of a new product line. The leading pump specialist has announced its partnership with Primax Pumps, an Australian pump manufacturer, to distribute its automatic self-priming diesel pumps to several European markets. The new pump line joins Tsurumi’s current offerings and means the company can provide a compact, mobile and fuel efficient pumping solution for almost any application.

Stefan Hörnschemeyer, marketing manager at Tsurumi Europe, comments:

“We are delighted to become the distributor for Primax Pumps in these European markets. Expanding our product offering while building relationships in the pumping world will open up new markets to us and allow us to offer a more complete range to our customers.”

Tsurumi will sell Primax’s Yakka pump range to Germany, Austria and Switzerland. The Yakka are compact and maneuverable pumps that can be mounted on a single axle trailer. The versatile range has a maximum head of 67m and maximum flow of 132 litres per second. The pumps can be used for general dewatering and wellpoint applications.

The Yakka have market leading fuel efficiency, with a full tank providing up to 30 hours of use. The pumps are also very quiet thanks to a special acoustic casing. Running at 1500rpm, the Yakka emits just 65.5 dBA at 7m. Gull wing doors allow for easy maintenance.

Tsurumi will introduce the Yakka pumps at bauma 2010 in April. The company will be exhibiting in Hall A6 at Booth 322.
