Use of industrial pumps, blowers, valves and heat exchangers in the marine industry
Maritime World; It spreads over a wide area from ships to offshore platforms, from shipyards to port operations. The biggest challenge of this sector is corrosion, constant humidity and heavy working conditions caused by salt water. All equipment used must be both durable and long-lasting.
KENFLE ENDÜSTRİYE produces special pumps, blowers, valves and heat exchanges solutions from materials such as stainless steel, bronze and titanium to fully adapt to marine conditions.
Major processes in the marine industry
1. Ballast and bilge systems
– Maintaining ship balance and draining bilge waters.
Submersible pumps, centrifugal pumps and air diaphragm pumps are used.
2. Fresh water and salt water transfer
– Drinking water, cleaning water and seawater transfer on board.
Stainless steel centrifugal pumps and bronze body pumps are preferred.
3. Fuel and oil transfer
– Motor feeding and lubrication systems.
Gear pumps, dosing pumps and hose pumps are used at this stage.
4. Cooling and Heating Systems
– Temperature control of the main machine and auxiliary machines.
Plate heat exchangers and tubular heat exchangers are tasked.
5. Ventilation and gas management
– Ventilation of engine room, warehouse areas and passenger compartments.
Roots blowers and centrifugal blowers play a critical role.
Pumps used in the marine industry
– Centrifugal pumps: in water transfer and bilge applications.
– Dosing pumps: in chemical additives and lubrication systems.
– Hose pumps: in high viscosity liquid transfer.
– Gear pumps: in the transfer of fuel and oil.
– Submersible pumps: in bilge and ballast systems.
– Air diaphragm pumps: in bilge and ballast systems.
– Monopomps: In bilge and ballast systems.
Blower Systems
Blowers in the marine sector are used especially for engine room ventilation, gas discharge and air conditioning.
– Roots blowers: Provides high flow air transfer.
– Centrifugal blowers: Suitable for energy efficient, quiet and long-lasting use.
Industrial Valves
– Bronze and stainless steel valves: Resistant to salt water and pressure.
– Butterfly valves: for fast control of pipelines.
– Valves with actuator: in automatic control systems.
heat exchangers
– Plate exchangers: in cooling water circuits.
– Tubular heat exchangers: in conditions of high pressure and temperature.
– Titanium heat exchangers: Provides maximum resistance to salt water corrosion.
