Framo Cargo Pumping System on Tankers

Svjetskim morima danas se prevoze sve vrste tereta. Skupina tereta, u tekućem stanju, kao što su sirova nafta, naftne prerađevine, kemikalije, ukapljeni plinovi, voda i sl. se prevoze vrstom brodova zvanom tankeri. Specifičnosti ovih tereta, koji su u tekućem stanju, uvjetovali su i specifične sustave kojima se isti ukrcava i iskrcava s tankera. To su sustavi s cjevovodima i pumpnim stanicama, a kako je tema ovog rada FRAMO sustav za prekrcaj tereta na tankerima, tako će isti biti detaljnije predstavljen u nastavku rada. FRAMO pumpa je napravljena za učinkovito pražnjenje bilo kojeg teretnog tanka koji sadrži najteže, najviskoznije ili najagresivnije terete. Svoje ime „FRAMO“ je dobila po imenu osnivača kompanije Frank Mohnu. Sjedište kompanije je u Norveškoj, a kompanija je osnovana još davne 1938. godine. Svojim korisnicima FRAMO sustav za prekrcaj tereta pruža brojne prednosti, a što će sve biti predstavljeno u nastavku rada.Today, all types of cargo are transported by the world's seas. A group of cargo, in liquid form, such as crude oil, petroleum products, chemicals, liquefied gases, water, etc., are transported by types of ships called tankers. The specifics of these cargos, which are in a liquid state, have conditioned the specific systems by which the cargos are loaded and unloaded from the tanker. These are systems with pipelines and pumping stations, and as the topic of this paper is the FRAMO system for transshipment of cargo on tankers, so it will be presented in more detail later. FRAMO pump is designed to efficiently empty any cargo tank containing the heaviest, most viscous or most aggressive cargo. It was named "FRAMO" after the company's founder Frank Mohn. The company is headquartered in Norway, and the company was founded back in 1938. The FRAMO cargo handling system offers its users numerous advantages, all of which will be presented below
