Hydraulic Submersible Ballast Pumps

Project description

To ensure safe handling of heavy loads on a barge or roll-on/roll-off vessel during load-in and load operations, a Dutch global operating service provider for heavy lifting and transport has developed a ballast system.

For this system we have delivered 32 hydraulic driven submersible pumps, made of stainless steel, with a 10” quick coupling connection for easy installation on site. By means of a variable speed drive the capacity can be adjusted providing a flexible solution during all stages of the ballast operation.
