Standards, Certifications & Class Approval
Review the available standards and approval information relevant to the product. Actual certification, material traceability, inspection and classification requirements depend on the product type, intended application and purchasing specification.
| Applicable Standards & Certification | Design and installation may be subject to SOLAS, the IMO IBC Code for chemical tankers, MARPOL, IEC 60092 shipboard electrical requirements and IEC 60079 or IECEx hazardous-area requirements. Applicable standards depend on cargo, vessel type and drive system. |
|---|---|
| Class Approval | Cargo pump arrangements are normally reviewed and approved for the specific vessel by its classification society, such as DNV, ABS, Lloyd's Register, Bureau Veritas or ClassNK. Material, hazardous-area and pressure-test documentation may also require class acceptance. |
Installation, Maintenance & Safety Information
| Installation Notes | Confirm required flow, differential head, NPSH, cargo properties and material compatibility. Align deck penetrations and drive components, support piping independently, provide bonding and earthing, and pressure-test the system according to maker and class requirements. |
|---|---|
| Maintenance Tips | Monitor vibration, discharge pressure, capacity, bearing condition and seal or cofferdam leakage. Inspect impellers, wear rings, bearings, shafts, hydraulic oil and strainers at maker-specified intervals. Flush or clean after incompatible or solidifying cargoes. |
| Safety Notes | Isolate, drain, depressurize and gas-free the cargo system before maintenance. Follow enclosed-space entry and permit-to-work procedures. Use approved hazardous-area equipment, prevent dry running unless permitted, and verify cargo compatibility to avoid fire, toxicity or contamination hazards. |
