Floating Suctions - C0001 - C0013, C0015 - C0093

Our Floating Suctions come in a range of designs to suit buried, above ground, semi-buried and vertical tanks as well as for use with articulated drainage units with a floating ceiling/roof.

Floating Suctions have the following advantages when compared with permanently fixed bleeding nozzles:

  • The product is always transferred in a defined distance under the liquid level
  • Contamination dirt, sediments, solid particles and heavy fluids remain on the tank bottom ensuring constant quality, independent from liquid level
  • Ease of steering and long lifetime due to the swivel joint ball bearing
  • Easy to mount due to internal swivel joint flanging
  • Robustness against pressure conditions (pressure variations) in tank and tube
  • Minimal vortex formation through optimized inlet with anti-vortex suction
  • Pressure-proof floats

Materials of product carrying parts:

  • Aluminum
  • Steel
  • Stainless Steel

Materials of seals:

  • Buna
  • Viton
  • PTFE (other seals available on request)

Design Pressure:

  • Pressureless

Design temperature:

  • -10° C up to +50° C
  • Various designs, depending on the tank dimensions and types:
    • C0001 - C0003 for use in semi-buried tankage with lateral outlet on the centre-line - single arm
    • C0004 - C0008 for use in buried tankage with the outlet through the manhole - single arm
    • C0009 - C0011 for use in above ground tankage with lateral outlet near the bottom - single arm
    • C0012 - C0013 for use in vertical storage tanks with lateral outlet near the bottom - double arm or triple arm
    • C0015 for articulated drainage units with floating ceiling/floating roof - double arm
    • C0093 for articulated drainage units with floating ceiling/floating roof - single arm
  • Sizes:
    • DN 50 to DN 500
