Model 8000 Pit Pump Success Story
59,000-Head Operation Proves Pit Pump
"I Definitely Would Select a Patz Pit Pump."
"We normally run our pit pump 10 hours a day, 6 days a week, the year around," notes Darren Strong of Foxley Cattle Company, Bartlett, Nebraska.
"We average 59,000 head of cattle on slats," explains Strong.
Each manure pit is 6 feet deep, 45 feet wide, and 270 feet long with an entry hole for the pump in each 90-foot section. The pump agitates constantly and loads into truck tankers and trailer tankers.
The Patz Model 8000 Vertical Pit Pump is moved from pit to pit continuously. "We really like the mobility of this pit pump," points out Strong. With proven performance for thousands of hours, Strong concludes, "I definitely would select a Patz Pit Pump."
