Thomson Process were engaged by the Mechanical Engineers in January 2019 for the development of a fuel pumping system to transfer diesel from storage tanks to day tanks for the power generator in a hyper scale Data Centre facility.
There were eight different flow rates designated on the fuel skids which were designed from consultation with the client and from P&ID. We made 8 duplex skids.
The motors control by variable speed output from 100L per minute to 800L per minute as required.
The Fuel Transfer pump skids are fitted with instrumentation, vibration isolation, thermal overpressure release, relief valves, and return to tank relief valves. There is a flow switch in a sump relief tension. Flow rates largely independent of pressure – just depends on the speed of the pump – this is because we used Positive Displacement Pumps.
Each Skid is complete with pipework and stainless-steel baseplate mounts the pumps.
We provided the client with full drawings and documentation. The project is made under our ISO9001 certification and all Viking Pump and other products on the skids are certified to the highest quality standards.
Introduction:
Thomson Process created Duplex Positive Displacement Pumps Skids for Fuel Transfer for a hyper scale Data Centre. The client was the Mechanical Engineer company. Our engineers worked from the P&ID received and meetings with the engineers to create the ideal solution for a fuel transfer pumping system. We used Viking Pump positive displacement pumps to make the Fuel Skids.
Industry:
Data Centre / Power Generation
Location: Dublin, Ireland
Application:
Transfer of Diesel from storage tanks to day tanks.
Timescale:
8 Weeks
