Hydraulic Power units

Hydraulic Power Units

Our water-based hydraulic power units are used primarily for the activation of subsea valves. These are specialised, hazardous area pump units designed and built to a high specification. Indeed, our experience designing and manufacturing for hazardous areas is substantial.

Pump Performance

To achieve the performance and reliability that the application demands, we select a Hammelmann reciprocating plunger pump. These pumps are mounted vertically which saves space, and are known for their reliability and long service intervals.

The Container

The container is DNV 2.7-1 certified and can be lifted by fork truck or by the 5-leg sling set supplied with each unit. We mount the HMI controls and service connection manifold externally in lockable panels. Generally, the containers have three access doors and one set of large double doors – although the configuration is designed to suit individual requirements. There is an option to use a DNV 2.7-3 certified crash frame where weight is critical.

Inside the container there is a raised floor. This allows all high pressure and control hoses to run underneath to provide a trip/hazard-free walkway. There is clear access to both sides of the engine and pump assembly. ATEX-compliant internal lighting is an option.
