ARGAL pumping solutions for seawater fit maritime and nautical sectors’ needs perfectly, solving the issue of transferring corrosive liquids, acids and waste.
Centrifugal and air-operated pumps made of composites, metals or plastic, we offer a complete corrosion-free range for the transfer of seawater, ballast, brine, waste water, refrigerants and others.
Liquids
The main liquids pumped in the maritime and nautical sectors are:
Seawater with temperature between 20 and 25°C mainly for aquaria, aquaculture, theme parks and all pools that need an unalterated medium for the basins
Fresh water, cold water depending on the flora and fauna for aquaria, pools
Dry bilge water and brine
NaOCl (sodium hypochlorite) for continuous dosing, shock-dosing within desalination and electrochlorination processes
Refrigerant mainly for boat-cargo-yacht cooling systems
ARGAL provides a complete range of solutions for the above liquids and applications, respecting the requirements and needs for any process and system.
π Air-operated double diaphragm pumps
ASTRAevo (ideal for dry bilge system, the series is available from size 1/4" to 2" and the recommended material is Aluminum with aluminum center block)
βQUANTUM (ideal for gentle transfer, like plankton transfer, the series is available in two sizes 1/2" and 1 1/2" and the recommended material is Ultra High Moleculare Weight Polyethylene - PE1000)
π Magnetic centrifugal pumps
BASIS and PRIMA series (mainly installed for cooling systems, the series offer close-coupled compact version with leakage and vibration-free)
ROUTE and RHINO series (available in Polypropylene and E-TFE, both series ensure seawater, acids and waste circulation. ROUTE series is also available in mechanical sealed version and RHINO series self-prime up to 6m length)
π Fiberglass (FRP) centrifugal pumps
SATURNevo (entirely made of special Vynilester resin, the renowed series ensures an excellent corrosion and high abrasion resistance.
Thanks to the use of Kevlar for feet and flanges or carbon-filled FRP for the impeller, the pump general resistance is improved for a longer life cycle and less maintenance costs and operations. The series is also available in compact and sump version) ββ
π Sump pumps
K2 (thermoplastic vertical sump configuration with 4-meter-length column reinforced with fiberglass for better resistance to corrosion, abrasion, thermal changes. It is ideal for seawater and wastewater treatments)
Applications
