SP90.18.253D | Diesel Stationary Concrete Pump

SP90.18.253D Stationary Concrete Pump — Diesel Pump for Mid- to High-Rise Buildings

The SP90.18.253D is the mid-range model in the TRUEMAX A9 stationary concrete pump range — a diesel trailer pump built to push concrete up buildings rather than along the ground. It delivers up to 90 m³/h through an S-valve at up to 18 MPa, driven by a 253 HP Deutz engine, and that higher pressure is what lets it feed concrete to the upper floors of mid- to high-rise buildings. The brochure positions it for medium and mid-to-high-rise building work, where a stationary concrete pump on a fixed pipeline is more economical than a boom pump for tall, repetitive floor pours.

Between the small SP50.10.82D for roads and bridges and the high-pressure SP100.23.360D for the tallest high-rise, the SP90.18.253D is the everyday building pump — enough output and pressure for most multi-storey projects, paired with a concrete placing boom to distribute concrete across each floor. Like every TRUEMAX pump it is built and tested in our own factory in Haining, runs an open hydraulic circuit, and is backed by ISO 9001:2015 and CE certification and service in more than 120 countries.

1. S-valve pumping for C15–C70 — An S-valve and a strong pumping system with optimised mixing blades and small dead angles give clean suction and steady output across a wide mix range, from C15 to C70 concrete.

2. One-button twin piston return — Both pistons return into the water box at the touch of a button, which makes changing the delivery cylinders and wear parts faster.

3. One-button high / low pressure switching — Switch between high and low pressure on the fly to trade output for the pressure needed to pump to the upper floors.

4. Hydraulic integration block — A compact valve manifold shortens the oil passages, lowers internal flow resistance and keeps the hydraulic system temperature stable.

5. Dual-drive lubrication — Manual plus fully-enclosed automatic relubrication keeps the moving parts greased and extends service life.

6. Chrome-plated delivery cylinder — The Φ200 mm cylinder bore is chrome-plated for a service life above 100,000 m³, with the cutting ring and glass plate made from rigid alloy.

7. Deutz diesel with energy-saving control — A 253 HP air-cooled Deutz engine runs independent of site power, and the power-matching algorithm raises pumping efficiency by up to 15% and cuts fuel use by up to 10%.

8. Intelligent control and protection — Real-time monitoring, self-diagnosis that cuts fault-finding time by up to 70%, and automatic overload and low-fuel protection guard the engine and oil pump.

Applications

The SP90.18.253D is the diesel stationary pump for building work — projects where concrete has to go up, floor after floor.

Mid- and high-rise buildings

As a concrete pump for high rise building work, the SP90.18.253D pushes concrete up a riser pipeline to the upper floors of medium and mid-to-high-rise towers, where its 18 MPa pressure does the lifting that a smaller pump cannot.

Multi-storey residential and commercial

For multi-storey residential blocks, offices and mixed-use buildings, a fixed stationary pump feeding a placing boom is an efficient, lower-cost alternative to a boom pump for repetitive floor pours.

Cores, columns and structural pours

Shear-wall cores, columns and structural elements suit the 90 m³/h output and Φ200 × 1800 mm cylinder, pumping a wide range of mixes from C15 to C70 through the line.

Sites without mains power

Running on its own 253 HP Deutz diesel engine, this diesel concrete pump works on building sites with no reliable electricity supply, common in early-stage and remote projects.

FAQs

What is the SP

It is a diesel stationary concrete pump for medium and mid-to-high-rise buildings. With up to 90 m³/h and 18 MPa it is built to pump concrete vertically up a riser to the upper floors — the mid-range step between the SP50.10.82D for roads and bridges and the high-pressure SP100.23.360D for the tallest high-rise.

253D used for?

They describe the same machine: the SP90.18.253D is a stationary pump on a towable trailer. It is towed to site, set up at a fixed point, and pumps concrete through a pipeline of steel pipe and rubber hose — typically a vertical riser feeding a placing boom on the working floor.

Is it a stationary pump or a trailer pump?

Reach depends on pressure, mix design, pipeline diameter and bends. As a planning rule concrete needs roughly 1 bar per 10 m of vertical lift plus friction loss; at 18 MPa (180 bar) the SP90.18.253D is sized for mid- to high-rise buildings, while the 23 MPa SP100.23.360D is the choice for the tallest high-rise. Send us your building height and layout and we will confirm the pipeline and reach.

How high can the SP

Output, pressure and application. The SP50.10.82D (49 m³/h, 10 MPa) is the small pump for roads, bridges and ground-level work; the SP90.18.253D (90 m³/h, 18 MPa) is the mid-range pump for mid- to high-rise buildings; and the SP100.23.360D (100 m³/h, 23 MPa) is the high-pressure pump for high-rise concreting. All three share the same S-valve pumping system and diesel power.

253D pump concrete?

Yes — a 253 HP air-cooled Deutz engine, so the pump runs independently of site electricity. An energy-saving power-matching algorithm raises pumping efficiency by up to 15% and reduces fuel consumption by up to 10%.

What is the difference between the SP50, SP90 and SP100?

Wear life depends on volume, mix abrasiveness and pressure. The chrome-plated Φ200 mm delivery cylinder is designed for over 100,000 m³, while the cutting ring and glass plate are rigid-alloy consumables checked and replaced periodically. We keep these parts in stock for fast replacement.

Is it diesel?

The standard unit is the trailer-mounted pump with its S-valve, hopper and control system. Delivery, packing and shipping terms (FOB / CIF), pipeline and hose, spare-parts kits, installation and commissioning are quoted to your project. Tell us your destination port and we will confirm lead time.

Where the SP90.18.253D fits in the TRUEMAX A9 trailer-pump range

The SP90.18.253D is the mid-range model in the TRUEMAX A9 stationary concrete pump range of three sizes. The SP50.10.82D is the small pump at 49 m³/h and 10 MPa for roads, bridges and light rail; the SP90.18.253D steps up to 90 m³/h and 18 MPa for medium and mid-to-high-rise buildings; and the SP100.23.360D is the high-pressure pump at 100 m³/h and 23 MPa for high-rise concreting. All three share the same S-valve pumping system, open hydraulic circuit and diesel power — the difference is output, pressure and the height each is built to pump to. Choose the SP90.18.253D for everyday building work where concrete has to go up.

How a stationary pump works in the concrete chain

A stationary concrete pump is the delivery link in the concrete chain. Concrete is produced at a batching plant, hauled to site by a concrete truck mixer, and then pushed by the pump through a pipeline to the pour. On a building, the SP90.18.253D sits at ground level and feeds a vertical riser; at the top, a concrete placing boom distributes the concrete across the floor. This pump-and-placing-boom set-up is the standard way to concrete a high-rise building floor by floor.

Stationary pump vs boom pump

A stationary or trailer pump (called a ground pump on many sites) pushes concrete through a fixed pipeline and is the more economical choice for tall buildings with many repetitive floor pours, where a riser and placing boom stay in place as the structure rises. A truck-mounted boom pump carries its own placing arm and is faster to set up for one-off, open or lower pours. Many high-rise projects use a stationary pump like the SP90.18.253D for the structure and a boom pump for podium and ground works.
