Honda 2 Inch Water Pump

Description

Flooded footings and stalled pipeline trenches halt excavation crews until water leaves the pit. The Honda WH20XK1AC1 Water Pump clears standing floodwater with a 4.8HP Honda GX160 overhead-valve gas engine pushing 119 GPM. This cast iron volute setup generates high head pressure for elevation pushes, though exhaust fumes restrict operation to open outdoor spaces.

The casing pairs cast aluminum outer housings with an abrasive-resistant cast iron volute and closed impeller. Honda matches this wet end to a 163cc single-cylinder 4-stroke engine producing 4.8HP at 3,600 RPM. Dry weight reaches 52 lbs with an exterior floor stance of 20.7in long by 14.8in wide by 16.1in tall. Carbon ceramic mechanical seals resist grit wear where the 0.75in keyed crankshaft enters the pump chamber.

Key Features of Honda WH20XK1AC1

Commercial buyers tracking pump pricing invest in this machine for sprinkler runs and washdown work. Pipe contractors buy Honda WH20XK1AC1 hardware to push water across steep slopes without pressure loss.

• A 4.8HP Honda GX160 engine supplies reliable four-stroke combustion power across long pump shifts.
• The 2in NPT suction and discharge ports connect to contractor water hose fittings.
• Total dynamic head reaches 148ft to drive water up steep retention pond banks.
• The closed cast iron impeller generates 64 PSI line pressure for high-pressure equipment washing.
• An integrated Oil Alert sensor shuts down ignition when oil levels drop below safety margins.
• Full protective tubular steel frame protects the engine block during transport across rough terrain.
• A 0.82-gallon fuel tank provides up to 1.9 hours of run time at full throttle.

High Head Hydrostatic Test Data

Dynamometer testing logs 119 GPM at 20ft head with pump suction pulling 26in Hg vacuum within 45 seconds of dry prime. Output pressure stabilizes at 61 PSI across continuous runs at 3,550 RPM under full engine load. Crankcase oil temperatures rise to 198°F after 90 minutes of continuous pumping in 85°F ambient heat. Sound levels reach 86 dB at 10ft from the muffler guard. The cast iron volute tolerates 80 PSI surge spikes without structural casing deflection or flange gasket separation.

Field Operation Routine Service Guide

The tubular steel cage provides balanced handholds for one worker to lift the 52 lbs pump onto truck beds. Do not buy this machine for handling raw sewage sludge, thick mud, or solid debris larger than 0.125in diameter.

• Change engine crankcase oil with SAE 10W-30 four-stroke oil every 50 hours of pump operation.
• Clean the dual-element foam air filter element every 25 hours when running in dusty trenches.
• Drain the cast iron volute through the bottom plug after freezing shifts to prevent ice cracks.

Factory Coverage Equipment Inclusions

Honda backs the machine with a 3-Year commercial warranty covering engine components and pump castings. The shipping box includes the complete WH20XK1AC1 pump unit, a hose strainer basket, two 2in hose coupling nuts, rubber gaskets, a spark plug socket, and an instruction manual.
