FRP pumps for fish-farming
ARGAL pumping solutions chosen for the biggest aquaculture plant in Thailand
27 centrifugal pumps are installed to cover the 3 biggest shrimp breeding sites owned by CPF based in Chachoengsao, Chantburie and Trad provinces. The 3 fish farming sites were recently restructured to improve the efficiency and safety of the systems. ARGAL pumping solutions give the reliability and efficiency required nowadays.
The solutions chosen are FRP long-coupled centrifugal pumps (model SATURNevo ZGS 8x6x13). The pumps operate with a notable flow rate for reaching 46.000 m3/h of seawater per day sites for powering the basins.
Each site has installed 9 ARGAL pumps:
- 6 as INTAKE pumps with a flow rate of 270m3/h installed at the beginning of the plant dragging seawater directly from the source.
- 3 as BACKWASH pumps with a flow rate of 260m3/h installed before the liquid reaches the shrimp basins for an ultimate cleaning of the liquid.
