Why Atlas Copco self priming dewatering pumps are built for crisis response

Imagine a flooded city street, a parched farmland, or a broken pipeline. Emergency dewatering is an urgent relocation of water to mitigate damage or restore functionality. It’s fast, temporary, and often chaotic, demanding equipment that’s rugged, mobile, and ready to perform under pressure. Emergency dewatering come in many forms, each with its own urgency and complexity. Common applications include:

• Municipal emergency sewage bypass: triggered by pipe breaks or blockages in sewer systems
• Stormwater and flood management: after hurricanes, levee failures, or heavy rainfall
• Industrial water supply loss: where temporary water transfer is needed to maintain operations.

These situations require equipment that’s not only powerful but also mobile, fast/easy to deploy, and capable of handling unpredictable conditions. 

Choosing the right pump for emergency dewatering is like choosing the right teammate in a crisis. You need:

• High flow and head capacity to move large volumes quickly
• Debris tolerance for muddy or abrasive water
• Fuel efficiency for long runtimes
• Quick setup for rapid deployment

For Emergency Dewatering, diesel dry prime dewatering pumps are the go-to solution. Atlas Copco’s portfolio offers a wide range of head and flow capabilities, making it easy to match the pump to the job. Here’s what sets them apart:

• Dry priming technology allows setup and priming in minutes
• Maintenance-friendly design: hinge doors and smart packaging minimize downtime
• Compact footprint: perfect for tight jobs sites and urban installations

These features make Atlas Copco pumps not just effective, but field ready. 

For emergency dewatering scenarios, our PAC F series is a trusted solution, particularly the PAC F44, F66, and F88 models. These units are designed for rapid deployment, easy transport, and efficient operation in tight or challenging environments. Their compact footprint and advanced pump-end technology make them highly adaptable across a wide range of emergency applications. When greater capacity is needed, multiple units can be installed in parallel to meet demanding site requirements.

What sets our pumps apart in these situations is the combination of high performance and field-friendly serviceability. Our product range is engineered to cover diverse application needs, including high-flow models capable of moving up to 9,000 gallons per minute with head capabilities reaching 270 feet, ideal for both horizontal distance and elevation challenges in water transfer.

Key features that give our pumps a competitive edge include dry priming technology for fast setup, and maintenance-friendly design with hinged access doors that reduce downtime in the field. These design elements ensure that our pumps not only perform under pressure but also stay operational when it matters most.

Emergency Dewatering isn’t just about moving water, it’s about saving time, property, and lives. With Atlas Copco self priming pumps, you get the speed, strength, and smarts to handle whatever nature throws your way.
