Solution
- ICR proposed SPX Flow Internal Gear Pumps in a duty/standby arrangement c/w variable speed electric motors
- Motor speed was locally controlled by a skid-mounted Ex d control panel
- Coriolis Flowmeter power supplied via the control panel
- On-skid equipment earthing provided along with On-skid cable support system
- Package was installed on a painted carbon-steel base frame c/w integral sloping drop tray with drain valve, certified lifting points, sling set and spreader lift beam
- Tubing, fittings, valves and components supplied in 316 stainless steel
- Discharge manifold fitted with dissimilar check valves for increased reliability
Results & Benefits
- Pumps capable of pumping viscous fluids at the required flowrate
- Bespoke control system configured to accept incoming power from client distribution board Overpressure safety built into design with discharge pressure relief valves
- Stable discharge flow and pressure through use of pulsation dampeners
- Real time flow rates and cumulative flow displayed locally on Coriolis flowmeter
