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
