Hello,
I acquired this piece from a shuttered factory surplus purchase. I know it has a Perkins diesel engine(384 hours). And also a M15 Wilden pump.
It's time to clear the barn and just need to know what I am selling. Any idea what the value could be? Thanks for replies.






value?

Hi kklukas

looks like a mobile pump I found this

...If you google Wilden Pump there is quite a bit of information. With that few hours I think it is worth quite a bit if the engine does in fact work

It looks like it's in very good condition. As Mark suggested, an internet search may give you a good idea of exactly what you have and its worth.

Looks like a pump, question is just.. how nasty of stuff can you put through it. If you can drain swamps with it its a pretty dang sweet piece of equipment. If it only pumps ‘clean’ liquids its a bit more limited but still worth a pretty penny to the right person.

From only the pics it looks like a double acting diaphragm pump. I think MarkLI got it right. For use in slurry pumping. As a kid, we had a beach well the size of a small room. It would fill up with sand and a local guy had a pumper that would suck sand and water out in a slurry. That one was a vertically arranged double pump. This one appears to be arranged horizontally.

Don't know what that is, but I operated a drill rig years ago powered by a Perkins diesel. That was one smooth running engine.

Looks like the pumps they use on those gold mining shows....All I got.

It’s a double acting diaphragm pump used to pump various semi-liquids. They are a trash pump of sorts and able to move a lot of grit without damage to the pump itself. We use them extensively at the *** to move seepage and oil, but also used them at the last powerhouse I worked to move lime slurry in the slaker building to the boiler house.

I was thinking it could have been in place for emergency fire fighting but with 384hrs. nobody has that many fires,likely used for pumping out pits or foundations!

I guess I am confused but those two things don't go together??
That pump is an air powered diaphragm pump as posted above. The Perkins Diesel engine is some kind of hydraulic power unit. So that engine and hydraulic pump can't run that compressed air diaphragm pump?

Here is the pump:

It looks like a pump typically used to de-water excavations at construction sites.
