When spray coverage, pressure consistency and reliability matter, the quality of your pump can have a major impact on productivity and results.
UDOR pumps are trusted by farmers, contractors, horticultural operators and commercial spray businesses throughout New Zealand for demanding spraying, irrigation and pumping applications. Designed and manufactured in Italy, UDOR pumps are known worldwide for durable construction, dependable performance and the ability to handle long operating hours in challenging environments.
Whether you're spraying gorse, applying fertiliser, operating orchard equipment or managing irrigation systems, Riequip supplies commercial-grade UDOR pumps designed to help keep your operation running efficiently when timing matters most.
Why Farmers and Contractors Choose UDOR Pumps
A spray pump does far more than move liquid.
The right pump helps ensure:
- Consistent spray coverage
- Accurate chemical application

FAQs
What are UDOR pumps used for?
UDOR pumps are primarily used for agricultural spraying, horticultural applications, irrigation systems and water transfer where consistent pressure and reliable performance are essential.
They're commonly fitted to spray units used for weed control, fertiliser application, crop protection and orchard spraying. Accurate pressure plays a critical role in achieving effective spray coverage and chemical distribution.
A quality pump helps reduce wasted chemicals, improve application accuracy and minimise downtime during busy spraying periods. For many operators, reliable pump performance directly impacts both productivity and operating costs.
Why are UDOR pumps so popular in agriculture?
UDOR pumps have built a strong reputation because they're designed specifically for demanding agricultural and commercial spraying applications.
Farmers and contractors rely on them because they deliver dependable pressure, strong durability and consistent performance under heavy workloads.
Spraying often occurs within limited weather windows where downtime can have significant consequences. Equipment failures can delay applications and affect overall farm productivity.
A proven pump platform helps provide confidence that spraying operations can continue efficiently when conditions are right.
Are UDOR pumps suitable for farm use?
Yes.
UDOR pumps are widely used on dairy farms, sheep and beef properties, orchards, vineyards and cropping operations throughout New Zealand.
They're commonly used for:
- Weed control
- Crop spraying
- Fertiliser application
- Irrigation systems
- General farm maintenance
- Water transfer
Agricultural equipment needs to perform reliably under demanding conditions. Choosing a pump built for commercial farm workloads helps reduce maintenance concerns while improving long-term reliability and productivity.
Can UDOR pumps be used for chemical spraying?
Absolutely.
Many UDOR pumps are specifically designed for agricultural spraying applications and utilise components that are compatible with a wide range of agricultural chemicals when used according to manufacturer guidelines.
Consistent spray pressure is critical for achieving accurate application rates and effective coverage. Using a pump that isn't designed for chemical spraying can result in reduced performance, increased wear and higher maintenance costs.
Selecting the right pump helps improve spray quality while protecting your investment and reducing downtime over the long term.
What pressure pump do I need for spraying?
The ideal pump depends on your spray unit, nozzle setup, boom width and application requirements.
Many operators focus on pressure alone, but flow rate is equally important. A pump must provide enough volume to maintain consistent pressure across the entire spraying system.
Choosing a pump that's too small can result in poor coverage, inconsistent application rates and increased strain on the equipment.
Sizing the pump correctly from the beginning helps maximise spraying efficiency and ensures your equipment performs as intended in the field.
What is the difference between a diaphragm pump and a piston pump?
Both pump designs are used in agricultural spraying, but they offer different characteristics.
Diaphragm pumps are particularly popular because they're highly resistant to chemicals, offer smooth operation and are well suited to spraying applications involving fertilisers and herbicides.
Piston pumps are often chosen where higher operating pressures are required.
The best option depends on the type of spraying being performed and the chemicals being used. Choosing the correct pump design helps improve reliability, reduce maintenance and maximise overall system performance.
Why are Honda-powered UDOR pumps so popular?
Honda-powered UDOR systems combine two highly respected products into one package.
The Honda engine provides reliable starting, fuel efficiency and dependable power, while the UDOR pump delivers the pressure and flow required for demanding spraying applications.
For contractors and farmers, reliability matters because spraying delays can affect productivity and operational efficiency.
A Honda-powered UDOR setup helps minimise downtime while providing confidence that the equipment will perform when critical application windows arrive.
How many litres per minute do I need?
Required flow rate varies depending on the application.
Factors that influence flow requirements include:
- Boom width
- Number of nozzles
- Operating pressure
- Travel speed
- Spray application rates
Many spraying issues occur because operators focus only on pressure while overlooking total flow requirements.
Ensuring the pump provides adequate litres per minute helps maintain consistent spray coverage and allows the entire system to perform efficiently under varying operating conditions.
Can UDOR pumps be used for irrigation?
Yes.
UDOR pumps are often used in irrigation systems where dependable water delivery and consistent pressure are required.
Whether supplying water to orchards, vineyards, lifestyle blocks or agricultural operations, reliable pumping performance helps maintain productivity and improve water management.
Inconsistent water delivery can reduce irrigation efficiency and increase management challenges. A quality pump helps ensure water reaches where it's required while reducing interruptions and maintenance concerns.
For many operators, dependable irrigation performance is essential to maintaining production outcomes.
How do I maintain a UDOR pump?
Regular maintenance helps maximise pump reliability and extend service life.
Recommended maintenance typically includes:
- Checking oil levels
- Inspecting hoses and fittings
- Flushing the system after use
- Monitoring diaphragms and wear components
- Cleaning filters
- Following service schedules
Agricultural pumps often operate in harsh environments and may be exposed to chemicals, making routine maintenance particularly important.
Consistent servicing helps reduce downtime, maintain pressure performance and avoid expensive repairs during critical spraying periods.
Why shouldn't I buy the cheapest spray pump available?
The cheapest pump often becomes the most expensive over time.
Lower-quality pumps may struggle under commercial workloads, require more maintenance and experience shorter service life compared with proven commercial-grade equipment.
When a spray pump fails, the real cost often isn't the repair itself—it's lost productivity, delayed spraying and reduced operational efficiency.
Investing in a reliable pump helps minimise operational risk while providing stronger long-term value through better performance, reduced downtime and greater reliability.
For professional operators, reliability is usually worth far more than the initial purchase price difference.
