SuperFlood 550

Powerful Flood Control

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 diesel engine, powered by Volvo Penta. 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 pump in the power pack. 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.

Main features

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.

Submersible floating pumps

The aluminium pump houses with aluminium 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.

Hytrans Control System

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 values
(oil pressure, oil temperature, output pressure, etc.) to ensure safe, reliable operation of the unit.

Hydraulic system

The hydraulic system consists of:

• Variable displacement hydraulic pump;
• Floating pump drive;
• Winch drive;
• Hose reels drive;
• 10 m hydraulic hose per floating pump;
• Oil tank
