DIESEL HYDRAULIC DRIVEN PUMPING UNIT FOR FIREFIGHTING

Hydraulic fire fighters for extreme conditions

Firewater pumps lie at the heart of a firefighting system. Reliable operation under extreme time conditions is a key requirement. Our self-contained hydraulic drive fire pump system delivers optimum performance and features to ensure minimum maintenance is required due to long periods on standby.

Description

Main benefits

Reliable operation under extreme conditions
Minimum maintenance is required even during long periods on standby
Self-contained, containerized module supports a diesel drive, booster pump, hydraulic power unit, fuel system, and all other systems required to operate the unit
Absence of 90 degree gearboxes for lineshaft pumps or the high-voltage electric cables associated with electro-submersible solutions makes the unit extremely robust in an emergency situation
Package is designed to produce the full pressure needed at deck level, thus dispensing with the need for a booster
Absence of 30 – 40 m long lineshafts, with several intermediate bearings, is a key advantage in terms of maintenance and reliability
