Diesel hydraulic driven pumping unit for firefighting
Diesel hydraulic driven pumping unit for firefighting
Hydraulic fire fighters for extreme conditions
- 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
- Floating Production Storage and Offloading (FPSO) unit
- Production platforms
- Drill ships
- Heavy-duty marine diesel engine, turbo-charged and after-cooled
- Sulzer-Rexroth design Hydraulic Power Unit (HPU)
- Fire-rated, acoustic insulated container enclosure (A0, A60, H60, H120 ratings)
- Complete dedicated fire detection and extinguishing system (CO2 or water mist)
- Proven design heavy-duty lift and booster pumps in Duplex or Super Duplex stainless steel

Firewater systems (fire fighting)
Firewater pumps are the heart of an FPSO’s firefighting system. It is vital that the pumps be reliable in extreme conditions and run for extended periods of time.
