Klein KPT-120 – UNIT B

Description

The Klein Porto-Tower KPT-120 is a portable, completely self-contained water storage tower with a 12,000-gallon (45,425 L) capacity and a discharge rate of up to 3,000 gpm. It carries an operating weight of 18,000 lbs (8,165 kg) and stands 39 ft 10 in (12.14 m) at full operating height. Klein Products invented and patented the original Porto-Tower in 1965 (U.S. Patent #3,106,171) for high-volume water recovery on demanding job sites.

A 5.5 HP (4.1 kW) air-cooled gasoline engine powers the hydraulic erection system, so the tower raises from towing position to full height at the push of a button with no crane or external power required. One person can set it up in under 10 minutes. A 10-inch (25.4 cm) discharge downspout with a quick-opening valve fills a standard water truck in under 2 minutes, while a 4-inch (10.2 cm) high-volume fill line refills the tank from hydrants or water trucks. It tows highway legal on dual 11-22.5 tires with air brakes and ICC-compliant lights.

This listing is UNIT B, sold from the 4 Corners Equipment yard in Farmington, NM. The KPT-120 is the largest model in the Porto-Tower line, meeting current DOT standards for over-the-road transport. Contact us to confirm current availability of comparable units.
