Similar to the petrol version, the HY50C, the DHYC50LE is an electric start, diesel-driven chemical pump. The pump which is made out of plastic is to prevent any corrosion occurring that may damage the machine. This makes this water pump ideal for use with fresh water, but also with salt water, chemicals and liquid fertiliser. It can be used for commercial tasks and the plastic pump helps prevent corrosion, expanding the lifespan and preserves the running life of the entire machine.

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 is off-grid. Also, as there is no electricity supply needed, so the risk of electrocution by trailing electrical wires through water or puddles is removed. Powered by the rugged Hyundai D300 diesel engine, with electric start and it's own 12v self-enclosed battery, which makes this easy starting machine a pleasure to use. and a joy to start
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.
