DESCRIPTION
The MEGA Mobile Pump is a towable water
lifting station. The MMP 4 may be towed by a
vehicle capable of at least a 6,000 pound (2,725
kg) towing capacity, 1,000 pound (450 kg)
tongue weight and equipped with the
appropriate weight rated Class IV trailer hitch
with a 2 5/16” ball. The MMP 4 can be
transported to a water holding pond and be set
up by 1 individual. MMP 4’s are a self
contained pumping station fitted with a
hydraulically driven 12” axial water pump that
has the potential to lift water 25’ (7.62 meters)
from pump level to fill water distribution
equipment (maximum height, 17’ [5.2 meters]
above ground level). MMP 4’s are equipped
with: hydraulically lifted inlet and discharge
booms with safety retaining chains and travel
locking devices, DOT rated lighting, 16” load
range ‘E’ on-highway trailer tires, a fold away
hitch with safety chains, a vacuum break with
an anti-siphon discharge sock on the discharge
boom, 23 gallon (87 liter) hydraulic oil tank
filled with Chevron Clarity AW 46 hydraulic
oil, a gear type hydraulic pump driven by a
Caterpillar 3054B series diesel engine and a 50
gallon (190 liter) capacity diesel fuel tank
equipped with shut off valves.
The MMP 4 needs a minimum of 2.5’ (0.762
meters) of water above the inlet of the water
pump for proper operation.
