No V-Belts

Actually Paul is not the manufacturer. All units are designed and manufacturered in Georga. Paul is our sales outlet for Allison Iron Horse equipment.

No those are not V-Belts. They are lifetime guarnteed Polychain belts. We use them on all multi-pumpers.

We have had Kubota's in the field with as many as 30,000 hours and still running storng. Paul does have at his location a 35 HP Kubota Diesel that carries a price tag of $10,995.00 as an introductory offer. That unit is set up right now with 2 each 10 GPM pumps with a max PSI of 2200 PSI at 20 GPM or one gun at approximately10 GPM @ 4000 PSI. We can easily change the pumps to be whatever you need.

John espec is loving the udor pumps now. Share why the change.
I remember years ago you featured comet and then the general TSF's, what do you like about the udors?

I see they have the largest oil reservoir in there class. How does the seal design differ from the others?

Wow, the guy in that picture should be the poster boy of "compensating". :eek:
 
Hey Paul, Can you email me a price quote on this with heaters? I'd want it set up with the 4 pumps and burners. I'd prefer to have seperate units so if something goes out of wack with the engine I'm only down one rig, but it's worth looking into. Also, how much would the whole thing weight? I'm in the process of building a new rig over the next couple of weeks with 2 high volume units on it..
 
With all Do respect guys this is a Espec thread, discussion was about this equipment and now we are talking a turn.

Please allow John & PAul to remain on topic of this great equipment they sell at espec.

I beleive they will be showing it on Florida this month on the 31st
 
Sorry about the hijacking.

I've been looking at that equipment for a long time. Jim and I were talking about that diesel engine and that setup for my line of work. He was helping me decide on what to get next.

This machine is almost exactly what I need. But I'm going to have to change my entire setup to do it and it's going to be costly.

I don't need heat on maintenance accounts, but it sure speeds things up for new accounts. Are two boilers justified? I'm not sure yet.

I don't need 24 gpm all the time. I like Jims setup where he can turn one off and vary output. I'd just want to be able to do that from the roof via remote. The variable option makes me lean toward his hydraulics, but that is even more expensive.

I'd like the 65K2530H with two boilers. But I'd have to change to 1/2 inch hose, 2000 + gallon tank, larger electric hose reel, Larger feed hose and buy a bigger truck. Even with 2000 gallons, A guy would run dry in 104 minutes with a 6 gpm feed coming in. That would mean a 25 minute break at the fire hydrant every 1 1/2 hrs. BUT I think a 9 hr job could possibly be reduced to around 4 hrs including fill up time if a hydrant is not too far away.

It would take a lot more accounts to justify spending that right now. It's like the reclaim issue, I just can't justify purchasing equipment that would be helpful in 5 or 6 accounts but a financial burden otherwise. That would be like me spending 40k for my lift because I had 5 or 6 two story buildings to get on.

But, when the time comes I'm looking into this unit.

BTW Chris was talking about used Uhaul trucks and weight limits, I saw an old Uhaul the other day owned by a car wash company with a 2000 gallon tank in the back. That's almost 17,000 lbs of water!!!

I did look into that type of belt years ago when we designed our equipment. I am glad it worked out for you.

How did you ever get over the issues of the stress factor on the crankshaft from the two belts pulling in the different positions?

I am glad to see that you have solved these issues. My hat is off to you. GREAT ENGINEERING !!! I am impressed.

You would never need two burners....and you would never need a boiler.
 
That setup might work good for Tony, just add a hot box or two but for Tony's purpose, he would need the electric clutches to engage the pumps as needed.

You could have the pumps just turning in bypass mode but for Tony's purpose when he is on a roof, he would have to have solenoid valves that can handle that kind of pressure and flow, might be better for clutches and not have those extra valves.

With that kind of flow, he could just use one pump, if that was not enought flow, engage another clutch and then see, I think that 2 or 3 pumps would probably be all the flow you would need but for those coils that are more than 12" thick, you might need the 20+gpm to get throught them.

With the check valves properly placed, if Tony needed some heat, he could just turn on one burner but if he needed heat with more flow, then he would need another burner. For what Tony does, I think that 2 burners might be enough.

With that diesel engine rig, two hot boxes and a large tank, that would mean a large truck but maybe one of those trucks that haul those trash roll-off boxes would do the trick? Some of those containers hold 10K to 15K of weight but if you made a flatbed truck out of it, it might do the job for what Tony needs. Probably have to get CDL to drive it.

That diesel rig with multiple pumps is a good idea. I have seen a guy here locally that has 3 pumps running off a diesel engine and I believe he had electric clutches to engage each of the pumps. He only had a 500 gallon tank but he did have 3 propane hot boxes with 3 separate propane tanks.

I did not see everything "T"'d, He did have 3 separate hose reels.

It was on a 20' gooseneck so I know it would fit on a 20' flatbed truck.

Geez, what are you washing units off the roof? I didn't know there was need or advantage to go bigger with what you do. But I like it, its all about faster, better. Someday I will unleash my ultimate system on the world...

Volume is king. PSI is it's naughty brother. I'm pm'ing you a link showing you why.
