Danish pump producer Svanehøj has launched its newly developed environmentally friendly Flow Control system, which automates the control of electric cargo pumps on tankers.
The launch of the newly developed software-based management system follows a successful take a look at in collaboration with the Swedish shipping firm Furetank on the P&C tanker Fure Ven. The 18,000 DWT vessel was inbuilt 2019 as considered one of Furetank’s V-Series, a model new era of climate-smart P&C tankers.
Svanehøj’s system makes it sooner, easier, and extra efficient to operate electric cargo pumps. It ensures an optimal changeover between tanks and pumps in parallel, lowering the time wanted for cargo discharge by up to 20% because the system will mechanically operate at the optimal duty point. It allows the operator to take full management of the pumps, simplifying the whole cargo discharge operation with out installing any further hardware.
Fure Ven is among the many first vessels at Furetank to have electric cargo pumps installed. เกจ์วัดแรงดันน้ำมันเครื่อง has recorded a 25% reduction in power and gas consumption in relation to cargo discharge operations in comparison with vessels within the fleet that have hydraulic pumps.
