Turbosol TB30

The Turbosol TB 30 is a stationary piston pump for pumping concrete and shotcrete, described by the manufacturer as powerful, compact and reliable and built for heavy working conditions. The pump has Ø 200 mm cylinders with a 570 mm stroke, offers infinitely variable capacity of up to 30 m³/h and a maximum working pressure of 80 bar on the piston side. Max. aggregate size is 35 mm, and the concrete can be delivered up to 200 m horizontally and 100 m vertically. The outlet manifold is Ø 150 mm.

Applications include pumping concrete with aggregate sizes up to 35 mm, grout, self-levelling floor compounds, ground consolidation, micropiles, pressure injection of mortar and slurry, compaction grouting and shotcrete. The machine is supplied in a pumping version, with steel pipes and rubber hoses, and a shotcrete version, with rubber hose and spray gun. The 300-litre hopper has an S-valve, wear plate and wear ring, and the new hopper, valve and agitator design is also suitable for demanding concrete. A water pump delivering 40 l/min at 20 bar is standard, while a dosing pump for shotcrete admixtures is optional.

The TB 30 is powered by a liquid-cooled 4-cylinder Yanmar 4TNV88C diesel engine rated at 35.5 kW (EU Stage V); a Stage IIIA version (36.4 kW) and an electric motor (30 kW, 400 V) can be supplied on request. The tubular chassis houses the tanks for water, oil and diesel, and practical doors in the cover give quick access for maintenance and inspection. Control is fully hydraulic with an electromechanical control panel, the emptying hatch is hydraulically operated for quick cleaning, and the machine has a single central lifting eye. With a manual drawbar it weighs 2 250 kg; with a braked, sprung chassis for road transport, 2 500 kg.
