The SuperFlood 550 is the first mobile unit worldwide with a total capacity of 150.000 lpm. The hydraulic power pack-pump unit is powered by a 565 kW Volvo Penta diesel engine. This robust combination ensures that dewatering of flooded areas can be achieved with minimal effort.
The hydraulically submersible floating FloodPumps use a numbering system to prevent hydraulic hoses from being mixed up during quick setup. The nine submersible pumps supply water to the power pack pump. The SuperFlood 550 is compactly designed to fit within a single containerized skid.
Worldwide, there are over 300 HydroSub units equipped with a FloodPump or FloodModule. Now, with the SuperFlood 550, the real power for Flood Control is available. This prepares you for quick water relief when managing a flood.
The powerful 565 kW engine uses a radiator and a cooling fan unit. The unit is constructed from stainless-steel panels and features roller shutters and hatches as doors for easy access, supported by high-quality, durable stainless-steel hinges and locks. The unit is transported using a truck mounted with a hooklift system.
The unit is built into a protective, sound-insulated steel frame housing, available in a container POD frame that can be lifted directly onto a trailer or a truck body. In addition to hatches for accessing the pumps, the SuperFlood 550 also features roll-up doors for quick access to the machine, allowing it to be put into operation quickly.
The aluminum pump houses with aluminum impellers are each mounted on a carrying frame with a floater and wheels, and are connected to the diesel-hydraulic power pack by two hydraulic hoses. The nine submersible pumps (93 kg/205 lbs) are marked to allow operation during different startup phases. The markings enable the pumps to be operated in three groups, allowing rapid removal of large volumes of water. The markings are located on the pumps and on the corresponding hoses to prevent confusion.
The SuperFlood 550 is controlled by an easy-to-operate Human Machine Interface and an advanced monitoring system (CAN bus). This system monitors and maintains all process parameters (oil pressure, oil temperature, output pressure, etc.) to ensure the unit’s safe, reliable operation.
The hydraulic system consists of:
