Suggestion on the wheels. Since they are underwater you need to get a pair of bearing buddies. They are used in the marine industry. They replace the end caps of your trailer caps. The bearing buddies have zurk fittings so you can pump grease into the trailer bearings. This keeps the water from eating away the bearing grease. You have a great invention. I hope you sell thousands of these to rice farmers.

this is so awesome im going to run out and buy one this is exactly what i need thankyou youtube for suggesting this video to me.

Nicely built. I like the innovation of keeping it simple.

I love how it is so brilliantly simple in the pipe transition. The whole pump is a work of simplicity and genius :o)

I don't do any farming or such stuff, but I don't why I still watch this and actually I like this, maybe because its a piece of art.

6000 gallons a minute, holy moly that thing is a beast of a pump!

If you have your intake float with a ridged skirting to prevent sucking in air, although that wouldn’t bother this design. This is a brilliant idea sir.

Brilliant minds are developed growing up on a farm that's a very reasonable machine considering all the work that he put into it

Great design with applies lots of experience and practical knowledge, etc.

Great made pump keep up the great engineering.

FINE KZfaq! I'll watch this since you must really want me to because this has been in my suggestions for 3 DAYS

The general idea is excellent based on the fact that it is easier to push water rather than to pull water. I would suggest that the square corners on the hose pipe drum would be made on a hexagonal or octagonal drum while the drive from the tractor could be provided with some protection........... you know just in case!! Congratulations for the basic design.

am really like the idea... great done guyz

Elegantly simple!

My wife and I live in Thailand and we have a similar 6" pump.....without the wheels. We just use an old 9Hp Kubota stationary engine on a stand I made to drive the pump, at less than half throttle mostly. It uses about a litre of diesel an hour. We use a carry-all to move it around. All up with 200M of cloth hose less than $3000 invested. Sometimes people over think the problem!

Good job Henry, people don't know how many thousands can be fed by this pump

Great invention!!!

I worked in Egypt back I the 80s and the farmers there used a similar device to pump water from the sweet water canals into their irrigation ditches. Different size models were used the smallest was powered by hand crank, coming up in size powered by installed gas engines and larger ones had diesels. The biggest by PTO or tractor belt pulley drives. The designs were kept simple and easy to manufacture and repair in rural areas, A NGO helped with development of simple but effective equipment for the farming community. You have a good design there and I wish you well with marketing it. BS

Elegant design

Very good job!

Archimedes screw reinvented. Good job.

I built something like that once. Too much vibration and no capacity. Then I removed all the flighting except for about 1.5 turns at the bottom and changed the chain sprockets for more speed. An improvement, but still not much better than my little floating pump with a hydraulic motor run from the remotes of my small tractor. Then I bought a pump from a small manufacturer near Saskatoon. It had a 16-inch discharge, about a 20-inch centrifugal impeller, and was rated well over 10,000 gallons per minute although I didn't have a tractor with the power to run it at full speed. I needed it to drain rented farmland that included a large patch of flat slow draining soil that was prone to flooding in the spring and crop drowning and denitrification from heavy thunderstorms in the summer. With the big pump the system worked pretty well. At half speed the pump didn't need a lot of power and the pump could easily keep up to the water flowing into the drainage ditches. All it had to do was lift the water about 20 inches and pump it through a culvert into a highway ditch that had screwed up the drainage in the first place. Thirty-five years ago that was good productive farmland. Now it is all pavement, streets and warehouses. I sold my pump to a land developer.

It's technically an Archimedes Screw!

Good to see no one can get sucked into the end of the auger. Shame about the lack of pto guards

very beautiful

My Uncle made one of these 25 years ago to (cycle drain the ponds).But he didn't have the hydro lift wheel ,it was just anchor to the side of the pond

I would advise them to shield the PTO shaft before someone or something like rope gets stuck in it.

Amazing

Wonderful work there ... my hat is off to the American farmer, I salute you.!.!.!. Subscribed

It's so essay to work. Like it

Henry Raupers sounds like his roots take him to Pennsylvania Dutch country and with that square head he definitely goes back to Scandinavia and I would be surprised if family origins were in Norway. He has that simplicity first mentality based in economy of scale. Found it interesting his approach to lower the pump was to dig holes for the wheel. And notice how the hand reel is manual with ergonomic hand wheels No nonsense all the way around though that driveshaft definitely needs to be shielded but he did go to proper lengths to recess the anger head.

This pump could be used to redirect water flow and abate creek inundation during hurricanes here in Houston.

Brilliant setup and invention! 👍😎

Could I use this to run the waterfall feature on my little Koi Pond in town?

Lil pump ou lil pump yah

I just wanna hear him say "eh hoser".

very cool

Can this be used for firefighting, i.e. filling tankers and folding 3000gal water tanks?

On the PTO does it also work with 540 eco?

God damn it I want one.

designed on safety? then wheres the PTO cover

Its just strong because open pump,but if you try to pump deep well i dont know maybe this can not work,

Is ok with tractor hp 150

You could buy larger and higher capacity ones than this at the time of release.

Gotta balance those drive shafts!

where do you get that kind of hose

One gallon May be equal to 4 and half liter and 23.32 liters equals to do one cusec. Then In cusec it would be around 20 cusecs.

"Emphasis on safety and efficacy" with no PTO guards...

Nice.

Is available in india ? Please reply

Does Henry come from Germany?

Send this to Thailand!!

lol my ass produces more pressure after taco bell

Good

wow 100 gallons a second geez

Don't know how I got here and don't have a farm but nice pump bruh

Where can you buy this flat hose

the flex and deflection of the drive shaft is scary almost looked like it was out of balance maybe it was out of true not sure

dope

How much price

Is this not just a common manure pump?

6,000 gallons per minute? In the video it seemed more like to be two or perhps three gallons per second, which is 120 to 180 GPM. Is there some kind of overdrive feature making it 30-50 times faster than in the video?

This guy act like he invented this ? ,,,Thats a Crisafulli pump thats been around for years

How much cost

jet boat pump will do more than this I reckon

Is he german??? Because of his speaking and the tractor??

I mean, 6000 gallons per second would be impressive.

What is price of this machine pump , because I bought this

Just in case ya want to re locate a pond or small lake

For 8000 dollars. That's a pretty good deal if you have a need to move tons of water.

This is a fish pump mainly used in the south for rice farms

I work with commercial water pumps every day and can tell you that's no where near 6,000 gallons per minute. That looked like a few hundred gallons per minute at most

put a new guard on the pto shaft

Где защита от мальков?

"Emphasis on safety" and no chain on PTO guard....

Good☺☺☺☺

Price please

200 ft of hose, BUTTTT you have to unravel it all from the spool. PITA.

Asian de-watering pumps been around for decades.

I'm with the last dude who stuck his neck out.. Why the fuck am I watching this? Admit it's kinda soothing and funny though.. "Osh ze water gets sucked in through this intake and we put a shroud on it so no one gets sucked in" on and on.. Okay I'm sleepy now.

1:35 'safety and efficiency' ? Cover the pto shaft properly then !

you are more efficient in farming than artour.

2018, anyone?

this is NOT new my city where i live in Iowa uses a pump like this to help in flood conditions

Why am I watching this is what your probably wondering

WTF is wrong with the people leaving inane comments on here ?

Pakistan main kaha Mily ga

If it was 6000 gpm the house would have to held with some kind of weight.thats alot of psi

That Deutz-Fahr is kinda rare in the US, i guess...?

THICC hose

1:30 - That PTO shaft's outer sheath needs to be chained for safety!

"safety and efficiency" Where are the covers on the PTO and spinning shafts?

portable river

4:44 S H O O T E D

If he made it from carbon fiber it would be even more powerful yet!

Was watching Chris Chan videos and ended up here. wtf?

He sounds so German...

A shorter length would make it easier to transport.

Where does all the water go after pumping it out?

How many gallons would it pump connected to a 999999 rpm fidget spinner?
