Refinery pumps

A large refinery uses several Börger rotary lobe pumps for pumping out the collecting basins. The surface water of the refinery, which consists of rainwater, production residues and safety overflows etc., is collected in these basins. The pumps were manufactured according to the API 676 for rotary positive displacement pumps in compliance with the customer's requirements. As the Börger pumps can master the required suction height of 6 m without problems, the pumps could be installed above the collecting basin.
