Use this diesel water pump with freshwater, saltwater, chemicals and liquid fertiliser The DHYC50LE is an electric start, diesel-driven chemical pump similar to the petrol version, the HY50C. The pump which is made out of plastic prevents any corrosion from occurring that may damage the machine. This makes this water pump ideal for use with fresh water, but also with saltwater, chemicals and liquid fertiliser. The benefit of it being diesel-powered as opposed to electric, which a lot of water pumps are, is that it can be used in locations that have limited access or are off-grid. Also, as there is no electricity supply needed, the risk of electrocution by trailing electrical wires through water or puddles is removed. This model is powered by the rugged Hyundai D300 diesel engine, with electric start and its own 12V self-enclosed battery. Compared to smaller horsepower water pumps or petrol models, a diesel pump typically gets the job done in less time and is more economical to run, using red diesel commonly found on farms or for fishing boats.
