DRIVES

When pumps are fitted to fire tender vehicles, drive is normally from PTO but may be via hydraulic motor or a separate engine. Fixed installations normally employ electric motors or diesel engine drives. However, there is an increasing preference for water turbine drives for foam concentrate pumps, which Albany cover with their Pelton units.

Above flows based on foams of 12-14 cst & S.G: 1.2. Viscosity range 3 cps to 2000 cps can be ac-commodated, please supply details of foam and viscosity with enquiry.

Flows of 1600 l/m and above can be met from the Albany twin screw pump range.

* AP7, AP9 & HD5 models that are approved by VdS can be supplied for use in stationary water extinguishing systems. VdS

APPROVALS – QA Albany holds BS EN ISO 9001:2008 approval. World-wide, many installations of its pumps fulfil rigorous test and service conditions. We meet the QA and documentation requirements of the oil and gas industry.

VdS approval is held for the AP7, AP9 & HD5 families of pumps used on fixed installations.

TESTING All Albany pumps are performance tested to ensure they meet the specification.

DOCUMENTATION Customised documentation can be provided for customers when required.

SPARES Spares are held for all standard pumps. Please contact for details and prices, quoting the serial number stamped on the pump body.

THIXOTROPIC FOAM CONCENTRATES Albany pumps will handle thixotropic foam liquids. Pumps may be run at normal speeds, as the shear rate within the inlet pipe and pump is suffi-cient to reduce viscosities. Suction lines should be as short as possible and of generous diameter since some of these liquids have a high resistance to flow.

FOAM PUMPING EXPERTISE FROM ALBANY PUMPS

WATER POWERED FOAM PUMP RANGE GROWS

ALBANY “FIGHT” TO SECURE ORDER FOR SINGAPORE CIVIL DEFENCE

After fierce competition Albany secured an order from a major Singapore fire fighting & protection equipment special-ist. The requirement was for pumps to handle 1400 litres/minute of fire fighting foam concentrate. Eight model HD8 relief valve extended bearing pattern Albany pumps with 4-inch flanged connections and bare drive shafts were supplied for building into skids out in

Singapore, (photographs show the units under construc-tion). The roll-on/roll-off skids incorporated the Albany pump coupled to a diesel engine, foam tank, pipe work and control gear. This enables the Singapore Civil Defence to place the unit at any strategic point to facilitate the fighting of fires.

Pump Options Used offshore and on big storage and loading areas in the oil & gas indus-try Albany’s newly developed 3” foam concentrate pump is a real winner. The water powered pump offers economy and greatly reduced space requirements. This is critical for off-shore fire protection. The unit supplies 600l/m at up to 18 bars pressure with complete spark-proof safety.

The smallest water powered pumps are portable and used off-shore. Medium sized units of 100 – 200 l/m protect helidecks on plat-forms and ships and Naval vessels. Albany’s foam pump range ex-tends to 1400l/m with our gear pumps and above 3000 l/m with our ranges of twin screw pumps.

Right: the Unipower Rapid Intervention Vehicle (RIV) is a first response airfield crash, fire and rescue vehicle. It has exceptional performance and can operate in extremes of climate. Uni-power of Coventry (formerly Alvis Motors) chose a DC motor-driven Albany FL5 to pump foam concentrate into the water stream. Albany make a range of DC or AC driven and air or hydraulic powered foam transfer pumps for use on all types of fire vehicles.

ALBANY THINK – ’FIRE PROTECTION’ Millions of people pass through airports and never give a thought to the fire fighting equipment. The good news is that Albany have given a lot of thought to the design, manufacture and perform-ance of their pumps used on foam concentrate used in fighting aviation fuel fires. When the fuel storage facilities at a major European airport needed extending Angus Fire were contacted to supply the foam unit skid. This unit was designed to cover the requisite demand of foam for the base injection system on the new storage tanks. An integral and vital part of the unit was a water powered foam pump. Angus, working closely with Albany at the calculation and design stage, incorporated one of Albany’s pump units knowing that it would meet the performance re-quirements specified. Every foam pump Albany manufacture and supply is thoroughly tested. The water turbine units are fine tuned at the test stage to ensure the foam flow rate at the required discharge pressure is achieved at the stated water pressure. So every-one can rest assured that an Albany pump will per-form if and when called upon.

VEHICLE FOAM LOADING AND TRANSFER PUMPS

This close up picture shows the Albany foam pump in action. Please note the water falling from the Pelton Wheel. The Angus Fire skid sits on a concrete foundation with a tundish moulded into concrete to ferry the water away to a drain point. In many applications the water is piped back to the main water pump suction or to the water storage tank.

WATER POWERED ALBANY FOAM PUMPS  Albany manufacture a range of water powered Pelton wheel pumps for foam concentrate. The models available are:  AP5         AP7    Also available as a VdS approved version         AP9    Also available as a VdS approved version         AP11.5         HD5    Also available as a VdS approved version  All these Pelton wheel driven models are compact units with the pump flange mounted on the side of the Pelton wheel housing and direct driven utilizing a one piece shaft. They are suitable for operation with water pressures between 5 and 18 bar g which enables the foam to be supplied at a 1 to 2 bar g Pressure above the water pressure.  There are a number of advantages in selecting this type of unit and they include:   Ideal for hazardous areas   Lower installation costs, especially at the end of jetties   No need for standby diesel engine driven pump   Will always operate if fire water available   Can be selected to run at a speed to give exact flow rate required  For further information please see Albany’s “Water Powered Foam Pumps” information pack.

ALBANY FOAM PUMPS & NFPA 20  The NFPA 20 Standard includes requirements for foam concentrate pumps. There are three sections which Albany can comply with and they are listed below with comments.  Relief Valves  NFPA 20 requires foam pumps to be plain pumps. It stipulates that a Pipeline Relief Valve is to be fiited in the discharge line with it relieving back to the foam tank. Albany can comply by supplying a plain (non‐relief valve) pump. However, an integral relief valve pump saves weight and the cost and space needed for pipeline mounted relief valves and the piping. Albany pumps with in‐built relief valves can be factory set to the relieving pressure required.  Please also note that models AP5N2 to AP9 with in‐built relief valves can be supplied with an external relieving feature and connection at no extra cost. Models AP10 and larger can be modified to external relief at extra cost if required.  Pump Drive Shaft Sealing  NFPA 20 states that pumps with packed glands should not be used. Albany can comply by fitting lip seals at no additional cost.  Dry Running  NFPA 20 requires that foam pumps will run dry for 10 minutes without any damage. They clarify “running dry” in the following way: When the foam pump has emptied the foam tank the pump must be capable of running on for a further 10 minutes without any detrimental effect on the pump. Albany foam pumps use internal bush bearings that have been run for 30 minutes after AFFF foam has been exhausted, these bushes have been utilized for over 40 years. Albany pumps do comply with this requirement.

Notes! Pumps for Fire Fighting Equipment

Pumps can be driven by hydraulic motor, electric motor, diesel engine or Pelton wheel (see "Water 

Powered Foam Pumps" pack).

Albany Foam Pumps are designed to pump foam concentrate. If they are to be tested on water it

must be within Albany's recommended limits as running on water and low viscosity foams will

reduce the life of the pump.
