An Australian made rapid in-pit dewatering system

If you need a pit to be dewatered, Crusader Hose has the solution for you.

The Hamersley Rapid In-Pit Dewatering System has been designed to be Australia’s simplest layflat hose deployment and retrieval method.

According to the company, it is the fastest and most compact system for delivering layflat hose in the field. Built for tough Australian mining conditions, its interchangeable spools make it quick and easy to handle multiple lengths of layflat hose up to 12 inches.

The system consists of reels and a reel drive unit (RDU), which can be mounted to a variety of equipment, such as skid steers, forklifts, and telehandlers.

A typical operation requires one operator to drive the unit and a ground operator to help connect couplings and give verbal directions. Through the system, storage and transport is made simple.

The Hamersley System is a popular choice for rapid in-pit dewatering in mines handling layflat hose.
