Every second counts: Conveying technology for emergency response

Sturdy rotary lobe pumps that work when it counts—ready for action, powerful, and low-maintenance

In the event of sudden flooding, every minute counts: Our mobile rotary lobe pumps enable rapid removal of water and sludge from roads, basements, and underground parking garages, as well as from dikes—ideal for municipalities, aid organizations, and emergency response teams. Our solutions have already proven their worth in India’s monsoon regions and during the 2024 flood disaster in Austria. The PTO pumps can be mounted on all-terrain vehicles or tractors. They can also be quickly put into operation at the scene of an incident when mounted on car trailers or roll-off containers.

Unlike centrifugal pumps, Vogelsang rotary lobe pumps operate reliably even under high pressures, fluctuating flow rates, and heavily contaminated water, so emergency responders do not have to monitor them constantly and can focus on other rescue tasks. Thanks to their robust, compact design featuring the InjectionSystem, flow rates remain stable even when mud and debris are present—a critical factor in dike defense, drainage of residential areas, and rapid evacuation operations.

The benefits for users are clear:

• Faster drainage of flooded areas,
• Reduced personnel requirements
• Flexible relocation between job sites
• Reliable continuous operation under adverse conditions
