Wide range of pumps to meet mining needs

If your mining operation is in need of trash pumps or submersible pumps to help transfer high volumes of muddy water, then look no further than Kennards for your pump hire.

Kennards Hire has branches located all across Australia to help with your water transferring needs, with a new hire centre at Mount Thorley - near Singleton - specifically catering for industry needs in the Hunter Valley.

While it has mostly specialist equipment, it also supplies general hire items to suit a number of purposes.

Kennards has a relatively new Pump & Power branch in North Queensland, that has been "extremely busy" since it was opened last year.

The Townsville Pump & Power has supplied equipment for various locations including Cape York, Coconut Island, Bowen and Mt Isa.

Four pumps for different water transfer requirements were supplied to Xstrata Copper's Ernest Henry Mine.

Kennards' Autumn 2013 issue of Tool Talk revealed that two of the units were extra high head, with a maximum head of 165 metres and maximum flow of 165 litres per second.

The other units were trailer-mounted high head pumps, with a maximum head of 67 metres and maximum flow of 271 litres per second.
