Framo Fire Water Pumping Systems
Hydraulic and diesel-electric fire water pumping systems with submerged lift pumps and containerized diesel packages.
Description
Framo offers two fire water pumping concepts for oil and gas installations.
Hydraulic
A submerged, hydraulically driven single-stage end-suction lift pump feeds a deck pump driven directly by the diesel engine, with a typical 30/70 load split so engine start load is about 30%. The lift pump rotates at 40–50 rpm in standby for fast start.
Electric
A diesel generator powers a cable-free electric submersible pump with one or two stages, block-coupled with delayed magnetization for soft start. Used for higher capacities or where the generator is far from the pump.
Key features
- Diesel packages containerized in fire-rated enclosures per NFPA 20
- Fuel systems for 12, 18 or 24 hours
- Continuous condition monitoring
Applications
Fire water supply on offshore oil and gas platforms, FPSOs and floating units.
