Description
The K‑Max 2″ diesel pump is a rugged, self‑priming centrifugal unit engineered to move water farther and higher than ordinary 2‑inch sets. At its heart is a 296 cc single‑cylinder, 4‑stroke diesel engine that spins a narrow‑vanned, high‑lift brass impeller inside a cast‑iron volute. This design delivers an impressive maximum head of 60 meters while still pushing up to 45 m³ per hour (≈ 750 L min‑¹) at lower lifts, giving you both pressure and volume in one portable package.
Built into a 32 mm powder‑coated steel roll‑cage, the pump shrugs off knocks on the back of a pickup and protects key components from stray cattle hooves around the shamba. Silicon‑carbide mechanical seals and stainless‑steel wear rings resist the grit found in river and dam water, while an IP54‑rated coil keeps the electrics safe from red dust and mist. A large priming cap makes it easy to flood the volute—once primed, the unit will lift water from up to 8 meters below the pump centerline, priming in roughly two minutes at a 4 m lift.
Because it burns diesel, the K‑Max sips fuel—roughly 0.9 L hr‑¹ at 70 % throttle—and delivers strong torque, so pressure doesn’t sag when multiple sprinklers kick on. A 3.5 L top‑mounted tank keeps the set running for 2.5 hours at full load or well over 4 hours at typical irrigation throttle. Low‑oil shutdown, thermal overload protection, and an easy‑read fuel gauge safeguard your investment and cut downtime.
All routine service points—oil drain, spin‑on fuel filter, cartridge air cleaner—sit on the same side for fast field maintenance. The engine shares parts with the common LF178 series, so spares and mechanics are available from Eldoret to Embu. At 62 kg dry, two people can lift it, or you can bolt on wheel‑barrow handles for one‑man mobility between plots.
Whether you’re pushing water 500 meters along a lay‑flat line, feeding hillside sprinkler grids, backing up a lodge’s fire hose reel, or filling elevated livestock tanks, the K‑Max 2‑inch High‑Pressure diesel pump combines long‑reach performance, diesel economy, and farm‑proof durability in one affordable, service‑friendly machine.
