Gorman-Rupp Engine Driven Pump- Super T

Gorman-Rupp Super T engine-driven sewage pump with self-priming design, mounted on a blue frame, showcasing a liquid-cooled engine for wastewater applications.

Gorman-Rupp Engine Driven Pump- Super T

The Gorman-Rupp Super T Series self-priming dewatering pump has been the world benchmark for this technology since 1963 (>55 years). These engine driven pumps are direct coupled to diesel engines through flexible flywheel couplings to ensure perfect alignment between pump and engine. These are mounted onto our “engitank” platform. This platform includes an extra heavy duty fuel tank base with a 450 litre capacity, lifting points on 4 corners, fork lift pockets, and a central lifting frame. A sheet-metal roof is provided to help protect the engine from the elements.

Further advantages include:

Simple priming system. Just fill casing with water.
No complicated “add-on” priming systems.
Pump solid particles up to 76mm dia
Pump stringy materials [rags, bags and wipes] with Eradicator technology
Greatly reduced OH&S issues
Easy access for monitoring or service
Advanced safety features to protect operators
Improved maintenance features to greatly reduce maintenance time and costs, with externally adjustable clearances.
A variety of materials of construction to handle abrasive and/or corrosive fluids
Any engine brand required by the customer.
Choice of skid or trailer mounted configuration

PROJECT SHOWCASE

Cairns Regional Council

Cairns Regional Council improves their wastewater system with
Gorman-Rupp pumps

Maintaining critical wastewater infrastructure in cyclone-prone regions like Cairns requires a shift from traditional backup power toward more resilient, mechanical failsafes. For Grahame Dunstan and the Cairns Regional Council, the inherent unreliability of emergency generators—which can fail to trigger or require complex switchboard integration—posed a significant risk to public health during extreme weather. To mitigate this, the council moved away from "the cost of cheap" and invested in a Gorman-Rupp V6-SCP self-priming diesel standby pump.

Positioned above-ground for easy operator access and safety, this unit operates independently of the electrical grid, using a simple float-switch activation to ensure the White Rock #1 station remains operational even when mains power and generators fail.

Performance Specification

Superior solids-handling, medium head pumps with reprime capability

Gorman-Rupp Super T Series self priming centrifugal pumps are capable of passing 76mm spherical solids [in 4” size and up] through all internal passages withing the pump (not just the impeller).
