Marine pump specialist Svanehøj is expanding its product portfolio for the emerging green ammonia market.
Drawing on extensive experience in ammonia applications, Svanehøj has developed a dedicated high-pressure ammonia fuel pump capable of delivering a fuel injection pressure of up to 100 BAR.
The compact solution, named HP NH3 Booster Pump”, is based on the design of Svanehøj’s patented deepwell low-pressure fuel pump, a centrifugal low-pressure pump, which has sold more than 1,000 units since its introduction, with 100 of those units being used for ammonia.
The new pump has a small footprint of 2,100x780x1,450 mm, making it a perfect fit for the Tank Connection Space (TCS) in an ammonia fuel supply system.
"We have long been encouraged by customers and partners to develop a high-pressure ammonia pump of the same high standard as our low-pressure fuel pump. Early in the R&D process, we determined that our existing centrifugal pump design would be the optimal solution in terms of efficiency and maintenance. As a result, we have developed a pump with a design that already has a proven track record, and we are confident it will meet our customers' high expectations," said Johnny Houmann, Chief Sales Officer at Svanehøj.
