The new SP 20 GHF – The lightweight liquid screed pump with petrol engine
Putzmeister has recently introduced the new SP 20 GHF worm pump worldwide.
Environmentally friendly engine
The machine has the same 4-cylinder petrol engine from Kubota as its predecessor and thus continues to meet all requirements of the “Stage V” emission standard. With optimised power management, the new SP 20 GHF boasts a rich output of 37 kW at 3,000 rpm.
The petrol engine impresses with its lower weight and, unlike a diesel engine, no particulate filter and no regeneration cycles to comply with environmental regulations. This therefore has a positive effect on acquisition and maintenance costs.
Lightweight machine
The light and compact machine has an actual total weight of less than 750 kilograms. Together with an unbraked axle, this trailer machine can be towed with a conventional car driver’s licence. A braked axle is optionally available on request.
In addition to the new, modern design, the liquid screed pump offers additional functions that make operation even more convenient.
The new SP 20 GHF is equipped with a large type 2L8 worm pump as standard and has a quick-change device for the worm pump parts. With this worm pump, the machine manages up to 20 m³ of screed per hour. In addition, it makes the operator’s work considerably easier with a radio remote control with delivery rate adjustment. The machine is operated via a simple and robust control panel with illuminated keypad and clear display.
New and innovative functions
In addition to the already familiar functions such as the acoustic warning in the event of a pump stop and the automatic pressure relief of the delivery hoses in the event of pump interruptions, the machine has further innovative functions. These include a “start-stop” function as known from the automotive sector, a “city” mode for noise reduction of the pump as well as a vibrator that is decoupled from the dirt area and for which special vibration patterns can be set. The quick-change device for the auger parts also deserves special mention here.
