Honda WT30 3″ 317 GPM Trash Pump

Honda WT30 3 Inch Trash Pump, 317 GPM with 1 1/16 Inch Solids The WT30 is a 3 inch trash pump for excavations, trenches and flooded job sites where the water is thick with mud and stones. It moves up to 317 gallons per minute and passes solids up to 1 1/16 inch, driven by the 270 cc GX270 commercial engine with Oil Alert. Its 1.4 gallon tank keeps it working 1.5 hours at full discharge. Larger Solids, Fewer Stoppages Passing solids up to 1 1/16 inch, against 13/16 inch on the WT20, means fewer clogs when dewatering a footing excavation after rain or clearing a flooded basement full of debris. The conical cast iron impeller and wide vanes resist wear, and the replaceable stainless wear plate on the cast iron volute absorbs abrasion that would otherwise wear the casing. Site-Friendly Details A heavy-duty full frame protects the pump and gives tie-down points for transport. Isolation mounts reduce vibration so the pump stays where it is set, even on soft ground. A quick clean-out port and Honda’s supplied multi-tool make clearing a blockage a short job.
