Case Study | ADD Series | Trolley Unit with Built-in Compressor

Client: Chemical Plant
Application: Transfer of urea water from port to ship
Model: ADD-40-PP (Air Diaphragm Pump) + Compressor Unit

Transferring large volumes of urea water up to 30 meters

A major chemical manufacturer approached us with a request to transfer urea water from land to ships docked at the port.

The required specifications were:

  • Transfer rate of 200 L/min
  • Self-priming and resistant to dry running (since urea tends to crystallize)
  • 30 m total head
  • Mobile unit with both pump and compressor mounted on a trolley

We handled the request from design stage and delivered a custom-built unit.

Equipped with a pulsation damper

Since long-distance transfer via hose was expected, a pulsation damper was also included in the unit.

We selected the appropriate compressor based on the customer’s requirements and delivered the unit as a complete, ready-to-use package.

Although the customer had considered other types of pumps, they ultimately chose our air diaphragm pump unit for its durability: tolerating dry runs, handling slurry, and more, even if it meant including a compressor.

As shown in this case, we offer flexible design and fabrication of custom units and systems using our pumps.

If you need more than just a pump, such as a trolley-mounted setup, please feel free to contact us.

Here’s the model supplied for this case:
