A small portable concrete pump has a pump body and delivery pipe. It uses pressure to move concrete through pipes continuously, mainly for house, bridge and tunnel construction. Its flexibility and efficiency make it popular for small projects. YG Machinery offers electric concrete pump and diesel trailer pump for sale – electric with low noise, diesel suitable for outdoors. This article covers hot models, usage tips and cases to help you understand. Contact us for an exclusive quote!【WhatsApp/WeChat/Phone】+86 13837122632
Precautions for Using Small Portable Concrete Pump
Whether it is 30, 40 or 50 pump, as concrete pumping equipment, standardized operation can reduce failures and extend service life:
1. Inspection before startup
Mechanical parts: Ensure that the delivery pipe joints are firm, the sealing rings are intact, and the hopper and stirring blades are not deformed or damaged.
Power system: For electric versions, check if the power cord is damaged and if the grounding is good; for diesel versions, check the oil level, engine oil level, and clean the air filter.
Lubrication system: Add lubricating oil/grease to key parts such as hinges and bearings according to the manual to reduce wear.
2. Standard operation during pumping
Material adaptation: The aggregate size, workability/slump of concrete must meet the equipment requirements to avoid pipe blockage due to material issues.
Uniform pumping: Start at low speed first, then increase the speed after smooth operation; keep pumping at a uniform speed, and avoid frequent sudden stops and starts to reduce impact on the equipment.
Pressure monitoring: When the pressure rises sharply, stop the machine and reverse it to clear the blockage first; if it doesn’t work, disassemble the pipe for cleaning. Do not force it to avoid expanding the fault.
3. Maintenance points during operation
Temperature monitoring: If the motor/diesel engine temperature is too high, stop the machine immediately to check for heat dissipation and overload problems, and restart after cooling down.
Abnormal sound inspection: If sharp friction or impact sounds are heard, stop the machine in time to check the parts to avoid small faults turning into big ones.
Hopper cleaning: Clean large stones and debris in the hopper at any time, and keep a certain amount of concrete in the hopper to prevent air suction and pipe blockage.
4. Comprehensive maintenance after construction
Pipe cleaning: After pumping, thoroughly clean the pipes with water or air. Clean the hopper and distribution valve first, then the delivery pipe to prevent concrete from solidifying.
Equipment cleaning: Rinse the outer surface of the pump with clean water, and use a special cleaning agent for stubborn stains to keep the equipment clean.
Long-term storage: For long-term non-use, cut off the power for electric versions and empty the fuel tank for diesel versions; apply anti-rust oil to rust-prone parts and store in a dry and ventilated place.
Following the above steps can significantly reduce equipment failures, extend equipment life, and make construction more worry-free!
Case 1: Renovation of a rural villa in the UK, 30 pump efficiently completes floor heating construction
During the renovation of a century-old villa in the suburbs of London, the construction team chose the 30 pump: “The villa has a narrow space, and large equipment cannot enter. The 30 pump is small in size and can be pushed to the courtyard from the back door. It completed 200㎡ floor heating fine stone concrete laying in 4 days with low noise.”
Case 2: Farm expansion in Texas, USA, 40 pump solves long-distance delivery problems
A farm in Texas built a new agricultural machinery warehouse and used the 40 trailer pump for sale: “The warehouse is 500 meters away from the road. The pump truck can be pulled by a pickup truck to reach the site. The diesel power does not require pulling wires. For the 200mm thick ground pouring, it took 5 days with 8 hours of work per day, which is 6 times faster than manual work.”
Case 3: Community swimming pool construction in New Zealand, 50 pump flexibly meets complex needs
During the pouring of a community swimming pool in Auckland, the 50 pump became the key: “The bottom of the pool needs fine stone concrete, and the pool wall needs mortar. The 50 pump can switch materials without changing the equipment. It uses diesel outdoors and switches to electric mode near residential areas, completing the delivery work in 10 days.”
30, 40 and 50 pumps, as practical trailer pump for sale, are among the best in small portable concrete pump. Choose the right model and perform proper maintenance to maximize the equipment’s value. In addition, YG also has high-quality equipment such as small mixers and delivery-mixing integrated machines on hot sale.【WhatsApp/WeChat/Phone】+86 13837122632
