Emergency and Back-up Supply

Fast and flexible water supply when needed
When water supply becomes critical

A stable water supply is fundamental to sustaining life, protecting ecosystems, and ensuring industrial continuity. When disruptions occur—whether due to drought, natural disasters, dropping river levels, or planned maintenance shutdowns—the consequences can be severe.

Communities and industries relying on consistent access to water face health risks, operational downtime, and economic losses. Having access to a quick emergency supply solution or having a reliable backup is essential to mitigating these challenges.

Water transport over long distances

Hytrans water transport systems provide a dependable, high-capacity solution for rapidly establishing emergency water supply networks—even over long distances—to support at-risk communities and critical infrastructure. Using hydraulically driven pumps, our systems ensure a continuous, pressurized water flow to emergency locations, overcoming challenges of distance, elevation, and terrain.

With an open or closed relay setup, Hytrans systems can transport water tens of kilometers across any environment, reaching even the most remote areas. Designed for versatility, they can tap into potable water reservoirs, distant hydrants, or open freshwater sources, ensuring a stable, on-demand supply.

Unlike conventional suction pumps or tanker-based transport, Hytrans systems deliver unmatched speed, scalability, and operational flexibility, providing a seamless, water supply over long-distances exactly where it’s needed most.

Reliable backup water supply for industrial continuity

Hytrans water transport systems serve as a dependable backup solution for industrial operations, ensuring uninterrupted water supply during maintenance of fixed pumps or periods of low river water levels. By bridging these gaps, our systems help prevent costly operational downtime and maintain critical industrial processes without disruption.

In these applications, pump capacity is the key selection factor, as the system is typically integrated into existing infrastructure using short hoses. With high-performance pumping capabilities, Hytrans ensures industries can maintain efficiency, reduce financial risk, and safeguard operations—even when primary water sources are compromised.

Seamless integration into any environment

To ensure smooth integration of the water transport system into its operational environment, Hytrans provides a range of complementary solutions designed to enhance functionality and efficiency. These include:

  • Hose Ramps – Allowing traffic and industrial activities to continue uninterrupted while hoses remain deployed.
  • Hardware – A comprehensive selection of Y-pieces, gate valves, and manifold dividers, enabling seamless connection to existing industrial or remote infrastructures.

By combining high-performance water transport with adaptable integration options, Hytrans delivers a complete, reliable, and flexible solution for emergency and backup water supply needs.
