In collaboration with Vos Industrial BV, IB-Pompen supplied four diesel-driven pump sets from Pioneer Pump for a large-scale tank cleaning project. The contract involved pumping crude oil at high capacity and high pressure under demanding conditions, with solid particles also present in the medium. The pumps had to be dry-run resistant, self-priming and suitable for use in an ATEX zone, all within a lead time of four months.
A terminal required a temporary system for tank cleaning with the following specifications:
✓ 660 m³/h
✓ 100-metre head
✓ diesel-powered
✓ dry self-priming
✓ ATEX-compliant
✓ delivery within a short timeframe
For this project, Vos Industrial, in collaboration with IB-Pompen, supplied a complete diesel-driven pumping system from Pioneer Pump. The system was specially configured to reliably meet the high capacity and pressure requirements during tank cleaning.
Three Pioneer 200CH Legacy diesel pumps, with a capacity of 660 m³/h at 10 bar, were selected, supplemented by a single Pioneer 80CH Legacy diesel pump with a capacity of 60 m³/h at 12 bar for support operations.
The pumps are dry self-priming, mechanically sealed and suitable for pumping liquids containing solid particles up to 30 mm in size. Thanks to the diesel engines, the systems can be operated completely independently of an external power supply. In addition, the units are fitted with a spark arrester and approved valves, and are suitable for use in ATEX environments.
