Ruhrpumpen´s Spotlight: April 2025

Currently, the combined capacity of the existing vaporizers inside an LNG Energy Center in Northern US, is insufficient to meet the forecasted peak demand for upcoming winters. Therefore, 2 new vaporizers were built to keep providing gas services to customers in the community, when the weather is coldest, which avoids the need to shut down gas service leaving customers in the cold.

When emergencies occur, it is better to be prepared. In case that happens, you want to be able to rely on the efficiency of your firefighting equipment to ensure the adequate water supply at required pressure. Our industrial fire pumps are available in electric motor or diesel engine driven configurations. They can be skid mounted fire pumps or fully housed packaged systems ready for installation.

During the assembly process each pump goes through meticulous production controls, inspections, and tests. We use advanced testing techniques and measure with precise calibration instruments that enable us to accurately inspect every fire suppression equipment. We guarantee that the operation of each Fire Pump complies with the required standards, NFPA-20 and UL/FM.

The fire water pump package delivered this month consisted of two (2) vertical, three-stage pumps of model 28C-980. Each pump featured a 28-inch bowl with three stages and was engineered for high durability and performance in demanding fire protection applications.

Key Specifications:

· Pump Type: Vertical, 3-stage (Model 28C-980)
