Located on Connelly Street at the Greater Sports Ground is the new built recreation & leisure centre incorporating the Kellerberrin & Districts Club. This was the site of the first concrete pump station in Western Australia. When wastewater has to get to the treatment facility and gravity is not cooperating, precast concrete pump stations do the heavy lifting. Precast concrete pump stations are designed, fabricated and installed with the highest-quality materials and equipment. We installed this system in the early 1990s. Completing a project like shows how we adopt innovation in out techniques.

The proposed fibreglass storage tank had an extended lead time of 14 weeks. To ensure schedules were kept, we recommended a galvanised tank, which was a first for us. This was an experience of trial and learning. Everything went smoothly providing the client with a viable solution within the requested timeframe.

Our client required new potable water and fire water storage tanks to be manufactured onsite. The location is particularly close to the harbour shoreline and situated in the category 5 cyclone region, which means winds can be in excess of 280 km per hr. This impacted every facet of design. We had extensive contact with suppliers to find alternative products that could withstand the aggressive environmental location. The process included a search for tank wall, nuts, and bolts all the way through to paints and roofing materials. We successfully installed all the equipment on schedule, within a 3 week period with no major disruptions or safety incidents. The tank construction was guaranteed for 25 years. The client was very satisfied with the end solution.

Canal Rocks Beachfront Resort sits waterfront at Smiths Beach in Yallingup. It offers beautiful accommodation for families, friends and couples visiting Yallingup and its surroundings. The facility required a fire pro pump set. We used the first AS2941-2013, which we designed, manufactured and installed the system, ensuring it met all standards and regulations. The project had its challenges since it was a first, however its successful completion enabled us to learn valuable information which will help in future installations. The project highlighted our ability to quickly learn on the job whilst successfully completing the project brief.

Allied Pumps rises to the challenge. Could we produce 20 relocatable bore head works, which could last for a minimum of 20 years and be compliant with wind loading requirements AS1170.2, for a wind region A4 quickly? Being headquarted in Western Australia, with extensive stock holdings, not only do we understand harsh conditions we were able to gear up quickly and meet the clients deadline.

Blockages occur fairly regularly at Graylands Hospital, Western Australia’s largest mental health facility. Objects and clothing were often being introduced into the plumbing system. With 1,053 fixtures, the system needed help breaking up these foreign objects. Two of their grinder pumps were not properly handling foreign objects. After much investigation, the most practical option was to install a channel grinder in the existing mechanical screening pit. We designed specialised guiderails from 316 stainless steel. They were built in-house to suit the existing concrete structure. This solved the issue and eliminated peak flow blockages. The system has now been up and running for 24 months with no issues.

The Cockburn Central Police Station required several tank and pump solutions. Initially a galvanised regular tank was recommended. However, there were design issues with the concrete slab. The station requested an in-situ concrete tank liner. The design was changed to meet this need. Allied Pumps was able to provide a turnkey solution for our client on this project, saving the client from having to engage the services of several different sub-contractors to work on various aspects of the tank installation. This enable the client to place a single order with us for all the work on the tank and supply of the pumping systems, enabling him to focus on other aspects of the project. The final project consisted of a panel tank, circulating pump pack, hot water circulator, fire pump and tank liner pack. The result was a seamless integration between the pumps and the tanks, and reliable fire protection has been the overall outcome.

Formed in 1905 to obtain, treat and distribute water supplies, the Bunbury Water Board has served the people of Bunbury for over 100 years. The city’s early settlers knew of water stored naturally underground and tried to use it to replace the Collie River and the Preston River, which were the only sources of water for drinking in those days. We supplied the first variable speed system to the water authority. It’s still being used today.

Allied Pumps creates insulated circular steel panel liner tank for the Karratha Health Campus to meet clients cold water requirements. We were able to meet the client’s stringent requirements to produce a cost effective, potable water tank that could withstand the extreme weather conditions. Rising to the challenge, this project was Allied Pumps first insulated circular steel panel liner tank complete with a cold water circulating program.

Due to the hot weather that is common throughout the year in the Pilbara region, water stored in potable water tanks can often reach temperatures in excess of 40 degrees. This is unacceptable for applications such drinking and eye wash stations and we needed to come up with a solution to accommodate this. We also provided the fire protection for a new Sino Iron Steel Warehouse in a tight 6 week deadline. Keep an eye out for the Fire Protection provided and find out more about the Eye Wash Station below.
