Thompson Pumps' new Flood Control Barrier Pumping System is a high-efficiency centrifugal pump equipped with an EPA-certified diesel engine and a dry-running, oil-less vacuum pump priming system. The pump is enclosed with a cage and lockable doors for maximum security and comes equipped with a hydraulic system which can control a winch to swing a flood control structure such as a floating barge, floodgate or other moveable structure into and out of a channel using cables, obstructing the flow of water.
