Looking for a water pump.  Does anyone know of a company that you can get a hydraulic line shaft turbine submersible water pump.  Mine has eaten to much junk from the crappy water source at our plant.  I don't want a after market external kit type.  It needs to extend 21" into the tank to reach the bottom of the water tank.  I checked with all the pump manufacturers, they have the after market external kits or ones way to expensive.  Need alternatives....thanks.

Well.......... I think that this site has at least two sponsors that can sell you that part. They are to the right CONCORD and ALLIANCE. Support our sponsors. ;~)

Thanks, I am calling them now....sponsors to the right always get my call first!!!

wow you guys are great. Make sure you thank them for being one of our sponsors. Concord and Alliance have supported this site and i sure thank them.

Hey let us know if they take care of you ok.

Hey DerPutz'

What is the deal on the water pump?

Could you find one? How much is it?

Sometimes everybody charges about the same for a part and sometimes it is a giant difference. I am interested in the outcome, and how you were treated.

I am looking at Pumpco now, I am probably going to get a new hopper vibrator from them too....will keep you posted.  Vibrator and water pump is the best price I've been quoted yet.  I'll get back to you.....also talking with Dave at CANUSA....If I buy from canusa, I will tell Dave he needs to sponsor the website.

Here is your vibrator

and if the link does not work here is the phone # 678-380-6267

tell the people that you need a pump hopper vibrator; they understand

I have emailed Alliance (today) and Concord (yesterday)with photos of the water pump and info request.

still waiting on results....

Thanks Bob, vibrator is being ordered now.....they even have a photo of a vibrator attached to a hopper....they also said they are shipping 15 vibrators to someone today....

I also told them they really need to support the website and that I will be giving Todd their email address.  So, I hope to see them on the right >>>>>>

Now waiting on the Water Pump....

Canusaequipment, Alliance, Pumpco, Concord, are currently in the running....waiting on replys....

Bob, am I missing anyone else I should try????

What brand of pump are you working on? Der Putzmeister?

It is a line shaft turbine pump.  I operate a 1999 Reed ST36.  The old one just ate up to much sediment and junk and the impellers and bearings turned to junk.  The top section that is above the tank is all good.  The hydraulic motor works and the drive shaft coupler section is good.  I can't figure out how to post pics or I would post a pic.  Everyone I talked to pretty much wants to sell me a aftermarket one that is between $4000 and $4600.  My boss wants me to exhaust all means for a better price, and preferably just replacing the bad pump and not the motor and drive shaft assy. 

Brand: CE

numbers on it are: crk4-160xx-w-a-auuv

Bob, you are fantastic.  I got the hopper vibrator and the water pump now.  The best price for the hopper vibrator was olivibrator.com and the best price for the Grundfos water pump is Alliance.  Concord was very very close to Alliance.  Kerry at Concord parts department was very helpful and emailed me as soon as he saw the posting on this thread and I want to thank him for his response.

Once again, thanks to Bob for helping me out....part chasing can be a nightmare, you made it quick and easy!

oh, the price ranges was from $1710 to $4600 for the exact same water  pump.  The price ranges on the vibrator was $360.00 to $1100.  It was worth the part chasing time....cost to my employer was 4.5 hours in wages.

Nice company......... pays you for riding your horse ;~)

Bob, how did you know???? Well, I bought the horse from the owner's wife....lol

I just bought a Water pump and hopper vibrator also. My vibrator was $400.00 plus shipping, and I bought a (Hypro I belive)  water pump for $450.00, it was in town so there was no shipping.

John, Bob called my boss earlier yesterday and informed me of the Hypro water pumps.  They are the ones located on the pumpco website.  That is the way we will be going.....

thanks,

matt

1. Install a water relief valve into system if you use a water nozzle that will shut off the water flow. If your nozzle can not stop flow don't worry about relief valve (this is better)

2. Do not turn this pump too fast. Check RPM of motor; regulate if necessary. This is important.

3. I like the solid-black rollers, not the white covered ones.

4. You can purchase this pump in any one of 10,000 places. Buy it from someone that will HELP YOU with questions, prices, service.

5. The rollers are a consumable part. Change them BEFORE they start to give you trouble, when the pressure drops off.

happy / cost effective pumping ;~)

Great Post Bob!!!

Hypro Water Pump model 7560 (cast iron for water application) has been ordered.  I got if from the closest distributor of Hypro Water PUmps.  PBM Supply, Chico Calif, 530-345-1334.  Price $188.00.  Very helpfull folks and courteous.  I am sending them the concretepumping.com link and asking them to please become a sponser....

I hope you got the correct rollers.

Order a roller kit (spare) with the black rollers. You will understand after the white plastic wears off of the steel inserts and screws up the pump housing.

ALSO!! get a sediment trap(remember the Thompsens ,BOB)Looks like a short pipe with w\a 45 tapping into it,but with a pipe plug instead.water goes through but sediment drops into the 45! We used to put a pipe into the 45,about 6"long for longer durations between cleanings,cause in the ole' Thompsens they were a bear to get to!!

Okay, Bob...I got the pump, Hypro Model 7560, BLACK ROLLERS TOO!!! now, this is the question before I make a mounting bracket for the hypro pump and the hydraulic motor....CAN THE PUMP SIT ON TOP OF THE WATER TANK???  This is where I plan to install it, or does it have to sit below the tank for priming purposes?  I believe, I can mount it on top and it will prime automatically....your thoughts.

thanks,

derputz

It may sit on top. You may want to put a 'foot' on the bottom of your suction tube. It is a check valve that will keep the suction tube full of water. This helps when you are using the water with only 1/2 or1/4 tank of water. It will make your rollers last longer too.

Remember to make a drain for the pump if you experience freezing in the winter.

The owner of the company I work for suggests replacing the balck rollers(covered in plastic) with stright brass rollers. It does create surge in the water hose, but hey last a long long time, and they don't shred off plastic and clog up your pump.
