We work every day to solve the problem of drawing from shallow water so that:
- Mining is safer and more efficient,
- Fewer lives are lost in bush fires, and
- Farmers have more options in drought.
- Turret Engineering is based in Western Australia and is part of a group employing over 40 people.
The Company was born out of the need of the mining industry to have safer and more efficient means of moving water around mine sites.
Now, in a world searching for climate change solutions, Turrets are spreading from their birthplace in mining to firefighting, agriculture, and wherever there is a need to draw from increasingly shallow water.
Pump intake is too high, causing vortexing, with air bubbles entering the pump and imploding (pump cavitation and damage).
The pump intake is too low, causing tailings or silt to be ingested into the system (pump damage, blown seals).
Turret floats on top of the water. Draws water from under surface. Stops vortexing, minimises ingestion of tailings or silt.
