 Honda
centrifugal pumps are ideal for use in a wide variety of applications
such as agricultural, construction sites, de-watering, sprinkler
systems, fire fighting, boating and general home use. Honda even
provides a pump for some saltwater and chemical applications.
Honda's centrifugal
pumps are designed to be reliable, easy to start, easy to prime,
easy to maintain and are built to last. Honda has provided pumps
to the world market for more than 20 years, and engines (the heart
of the pump) for more than 30 years. Honda's reputation for high
efficiency, long life engines and high quality pumps has made them
the favorite in rental and commercial applications.

4-STROKE ENGINES
 Honda
uses both OHV and side valve engines in their water pump line-up.
Transistorized
pointless ignition systems are virtually maintenance free. They
offer easy starting under all conditions.
Mufflers are
the quiet type, with heat shields covering the entire muffler for
added safety.
Easy starting
is accomplished by automatic decompression that reduces the pulling
force required when starting the engine.
PUMP
FEATURES
Aluminum pump
housing reduces the overall weight of the unit.
The inlet flapper
valve allows the pump case to be filled without the water flowing
out of the suction opening. This reduces the priming time. The flapper
also prevents siphoning after the engine is shut down. The pump
case drain and fill plugs are a special plastic. They don't corrode
to the case and they don't swell. They are easily removed with your
fingers. O-rings back each plug for a better seal.
Most Honda pumps
contain a heavy-duty cast iron impeller and volute to resist wear.
Additionally, the impeller is shimmed for easy impeller-volute clearance
adjustment to maintain maximum pump performance. Honda WT series
trash pumps also feature a replaceable stainless steel volute wear
plate. Most general-purpose models contain a durable and easy-to-service
ceramic-carbon mechanical water seal. WD and WT models offer silicone-carbide
mechanical seals to better withstand mild abrasives.
Most models
also include a full tubular frame to protect the pump from damage.
The frame also provides convenient lifting points.
All gasoline-powered
pumps are equipped with Honda OHV commercial grade or OHC premium
residential engines. All meet EPA and CARB emission levels and most
carry a two-year limited warranty for non-commercial use.
