Guppy Max - Heavy Duty Water Filled Flood Barrier
Guppy™ MAX is a heavy-duty, water-filled flood protection system engineered for large-scale flood defence. Its innovative three-chamber construction forms a stable trapezoidal barrier when filled, providing dependable water diversion and protection for properties, infrastructure and critical assets.
Each Guppy™ MAX unit measures 40 inches in diameter and 30 feet in length, making it suitable for creating substantial temporary flood barriers across a wide range of locations. The unit can be filled using a 2 1/2-inch fire hose for rapid deployment during flood emergencies.
The integrated extended seaming flap allows multiple units to be connected together, helping create longer continuous barriers around buildings, perimeters, entryways and other vulnerable areas. After use, the reusable tube can be drained, dried thoroughly and stored for future flood protection requirements.
Guppy MAX is designed to help protect property and valuable assets from flood damage. Its flexible material construction allows the barrier to conform to many surfaces, helping minimise water seepage. The extended seaming flap also allows multiple units to be joined together to achieve the required length of protection.
Roll the Guppy MAX water-filled tube into the required position before filling. The unit is designed to be filled using a 2 1/2-inch fire hose.
Because each unit holds approximately 2,115 gallons of water, positioning the tube close to the available water supply is recommended. Once completely filled, the unit becomes extremely heavy and should not be moved, so ensure it is correctly positioned before filling.
After the flood event has ended, drain the tube carefully to avoid releasing large volumes of water into an already saturated area.
Allow the barrier to become completely dry and remove any water or debris before folding it for storage. Store the unit in a cool, dry location ready for future use.
Each Guppy MAX tube features an extended seaming flap along one side. When installing multiple units, position the correct ends together so the sections can be connected securely around the protected structure.
Use the integrated PVC ropes or tie strings through the grommet holes to join adjacent units securely. The same connection points can also be used to fasten the barrier to the ground with suitable stakes where required.
Guppy MAX can be installed in a straight run or combined with a dedicated Guppy MAX Corner Unit to create a 90-degree turn.
The extended seaming flaps on the Corner Unit allow adjacent MAX sections to be securely connected using the integrated rope ties and grommet holes. This makes it possible to create continuous perimeter protection around corners, structures and vulnerable areas.
Cold Weather Use: RV antifreeze is recommended for temperatures below freezing. If freezing conditions are expected, tubes should be filled to no more than three-quarters of their capacity.
