With extra ships being powered by LNG, Svanehøj has developed a gasoline pump tailor-made to their wants, the CS pump.
With LNG twin fueled vessels now accounting for 38% of at the moment on order shipbuilding tonnage, Svanehøj Denmark has responded to the rising transfer to LNG fueling with the launch of a very new pump design for LNG, the CS pump.
Svanehøj says that this makes it the primary provider on the marine market to supply each deepwell pumps and submerged pumps for electrical gasoline methods. The intention is to realize a bigger share of the engaging and strongly rising LNG market.
Svanehøj’s new electrical submerged pump design for LNG-powered ships is making its public debut this week on the SMM commerce truthful in Hamburg.
In current years, Svanehøj has positioned itself strongly as a number one provider of long-shaft deepwell pumps, the place the motor and different electrical elements are situated on deck. The new CS (cryonic submerged) pump is a submerged pump that’s put in on the backside of the tank.
“With the new CS pump for LNG, we are strengthening our position in a rapidly developing market. We will differentiate ourselves from our competitors by offering advice that is neutral in terms of technology selection. In this way, we want to ensure that the customer always gets the solution that best suits the specific project,” says Johnny Houmann, director of gross sales & tasks at Svanehøj.
While LNG-fueled ships fitted with submerged gasoline pumps have usually been affected by clogging of the pumps resulting from impurities within the gasoline, within the design of the CS pump Svanehøj has solved this problem by creating a particular self-cleaning LNG filter that ensures optimum circulation.
Additionally, Svanehøj has developed its personal electrical everlasting magnet motor particularly for the CS pump.
With the help of exterior specialists, the Svanehøj engineering staff says it has succeeded in reaching a considerably larger diploma of effectivity and decrease power consumption than with different motors in the marketplace. In this fashion, Svanehøj meets the necessity for options that adjust to the stricter necessities for ships’ emissions.
“Our ESG focus is about developing technical solutions for ships to support the transition to cleaner energy types. With the CS pump, we meet some technical challenges to ensure a higher efficiency of the pump and improve uptime during operation,” says Houmann.
