Product Information

Key Features

  • Purpose-built live aquatic transfer pump — moves fish without external or internal damage to the species
  • 8″ (200 mm) suction and discharge bore, matched to fish up to a 1.5 kg average
  • Self-priming, with variable speed electric drive and optional remote control operation
  • Marine alloy aluminium construction, so it can be moved and reinstalled between tanks
  • Submersible and non-submersible application designs
  • Two drive options — 15 hp standard and 20 hp BP80-S — lifting to 9 m and 11 m respectively
  • Suits bathing, delousing, transferring, grading and harvesting grow-out fish, and installs as a permanent centralised transfer system
  • Sizing: the BP80 moves up to 24 tonnes of fish per hour through its 8″ (200 mm) bore at up to 9 m head, with a maximum average fish size of 1.5 kg — drop to the BP60 (6″ bore, 16 t/hr, 600 g fish) for smaller stock, or step up to the BP100 (10″ bore, 55 t/hr, 2.7 kg fish) for harvest-scale tonnage, and size on your worst case, as these limits cannot be achieved simultaneously

Frequently Asked Questions

How many fish will the BP80 move in an hour?
Up to 24 tonnes per hour through its 8″ (200 mm) bore, though the rate you actually achieve depends on species, fish size, pipe run and head.

How high can it lift?
Up to 9 m of pumping head on the standard 15 hp BP80, or 11 m on the 20 hp BP80-S.
How do I choose between the BP80 and the sizes either side of it?
Compare bore, fish size and tonnage together — the BP60 is 6″ bore, 600 g fish and 16 t/hr, the BP80 is 8″ bore, 1.5 kg fish and 24 t/hr, and the BP100 is 10″ bore, 2.7 kg fish and 55 t/hr.

Bathing, delousing, transferring, grading and harvesting grow-out fish in RAS, live holding and live transport work.
How much water and air does the pump need?
Water and air demand figures are not published for the BP80, so ask Fresh By Design to confirm the service requirements for your layout before you design the services.
How do I get a price?
Request a quote with the tonnage you need to move per hour, your maximum average fish size and the vertical head from water level to discharge, and we’ll confirm the right BP model and lead time.
