Mobile skimmer pump / Light and compact / On a pontoon or tracked vehicle
A manufacturer of oil spill response equipment in Asia was in search for a pump for mobile units. The units are equipped with small diesel motors and are solely to be used as oily water skimmer pumps during oil spill emergencies in the region. The Accuvon rotary lobe pump was selected due to the low shear, low speed with no friction on the moving pump parts as well as the reduction of oil-water emulsification. The dry-run capability and the low weight of Accuvon aluminum pumps were highly favored by the customer. The compact size gives Accuvon pumps the advantage to be placed in a mobile unit easily.
The skimmer pump is often not installed permanently but designed in such a way that it can be transported to any applications without problems. Each mobile unit is constructed to the customer`s wishes and requirements.
• The AC 50 and AC 75 are now available in an alluminium version
• Because of the light weight, the pumps are well suited for the use as skimmer pumps or as portable pumps
• The pump is extremely compact and very light for the highest performance in a small space.
• As a hand cart
• As a mobile unit with diesel motor
• Portable – for extremely rough terrain
•On a tracked vehicle for coastal protection
•On a pontoon
There are many cases where water is contaminated with oil. Each oil spill disaster requires quick corrective action, or it can pose a high risk of damage to the ecological system.
In order to skim the oil or other floating impurities from the water surface, powerful pumps are needed. Accuvon`s rotary lobe pumps are the perfect solution because they can convey high viscosities and work in slurp-mode.
Liquid as well as viscous or abrasive pumped media can be conveyed effortlessly, and even chemically aggressive substances pose no problem. The Accuvon rotary lobe pump which is insensitive to solids is capable of running dry for a short time and can be used for filling and emptying by reversing the direction of rotation.
