Mobile Pumps

Three-Point Base-Mounted Unit A three-point base-mounted unit is a fixed version of the Börger rotary lobe pump on a stable triangular frame. It is used at industrial sites where the pump must stay in a permanent fixed position: on process lines, in transfer stations and as part of automated metering and batching systems. An alternative to mobile units where work is done at a single point. Design of the three-point base A frame with three feet provides stability on uneven industrial floors without elaborate foundation work. Each foot is height-adjustable, which allows the pump to be levelled precisely even on a sloping floor. Fixing to the floor is by anchors. The design is more compact than a linear frame and leaves free space around the pump for servicing. Performance data Capacity — from 50 to 300 m³/h depending on the pump size Discharge pressure — up to 12 bar Self-priming — up to 9 m Pumping of liquids with solids up to 100 mm Handling of media with viscosity up to 1,000,000 mPa·s Drive — electric motor or geared motor with variable-frequency control Where it is used On oilfields — as part of crude oil treatment systems and process liquid transfer. In municipal services — at sewage pumping stations. In the food industry — on filling lines for viscous products between tanks. In the chemical industry — for transferring reagents and emulsions between reactors. In agriculture — for feeding biogas plants. Advantages of the fixed version Compared with flange-mounted installations, a pump on a three-point base is simpler to install: no flat foundation preparation and no linear guides are needed. Compared with a mobile unit it takes up less space and does not require an operator to be present at all times. MIP technology is retained: repairs are carried out in place without disconnecting the pipework. Selection and configuration The choice of pump for the unit depends on the nature of the medium, the required capacity and the duty cycle (continuous or intermittent). For pumping with a high solids content we recommend an upstream Börger grinder. The operating principle of the pump end — in the article on Börger rotary lobe pumps.

Learn more Börger Container Filling Systems Börger container filling systems are complete stations for the metered filling of liquids into drums, IBCs, road tankers and process vessels. They comprise a rotary lobe pump, a flow meter with automatic batch control, a flow shut-off system and an operator panel. They are used at chemical warehouses, oil depots, in the food industry and when dispatching finished products from production. System components The basic configuration includes a Börger pump with drive, a high-accuracy flow meter, a shut-off valve, pipework and a control panel with batch setting. Options include a service platform, earthing for work with flammable liquids, overfill protection and emergency stop. The design is modular: a single-channel or multi-channel filling line can be assembled. Technical capabilities Capacity — from 5 to 50 m³/h depending on the container type Batching accuracy — ±0.2% by mass Handling of liquids with viscosity up to 100,000 mPa·s Pumping of food, chemical and petrochemical media Self-priming from the supply vessel — up to 7 m Automatic shut-off when the set batch is reached Where it is used At oil depots — for loading petroleum products into road tankers and 200-litre drums. In the chemical industry — for filling reagents, surfactants and acid and alkaline formulations into IBCs. In the food sector — for batching syrups, oils and purées into consumer and bulk containers. At industrial plants — for filling process vessels with a precisely set volume of lubricants, cutting fluids and heat transfer media. Advantages of an integrated solution Unlike manual filling through an open valve, a Börger system ensures batch accuracy and prevents overfilling. Compared with systems based on centrifugal pumps, it handles viscous and non-homogeneous liquids correctly without separating the batch. The pump's reversible mode allows one line to be used both for filling and for emergency pump-out from an overfilled container. Selection and configuration The configuration is determined by the nature of the liquid, the container type and the required capacity.

Learn more Tanker-Mounted Pump The Börger tanker-mounted pump is fixed pumping equipment installed directly on a vacuum, sludge or oil-collection tanker. It is used for two-way duty: vacuum loading of the tank at the pumping point and forced discharge at the disposal point. A solution for specialised vehicle fleets at municipal and oilfield service companies. How two-way operation works The Börger rotary lobe pump is reversible — the flow direction changes without re-routing the hoses. At the pick-up point the operator switches the unit to suction and the tank fills. At the discharge point it switches to delivery and the contents are forced out under pressure. One pump serves both phases of the trip, which cuts the capital cost of equipping the vehicle. Technical parameters Capacity — from 80 to 200 m³/h Self-priming — up to 9 m, giving a wide margin for discharge into manholes Discharge pressure — up to 8 bar Pumping of effluent with solids up to 80 mm, sand and silt Drive from the truck's PTO (power take-off) or from its own engine Noise level — up to 75 dB at a distance of 7 m Where it is used The main customers are operators of vacuum and sludge tankers, service divisions of oil and gas companies, and airport and port service fleets. In the municipal sector the pump is used to empty septic tanks and sewage manholes. In oilfield work — to collect well fluid and pit sludge for delivery to a treatment unit. Advantages of an integrated installation Unlike vacuum pumps, which are limited to a suction lift of about 8 metres and cannot cope with abrasive media, the Börger rotary lobe pump handles sand and silt without catastrophic wear. MIP technology allows the working parts to be replaced directly on the tanker in 30–60 minutes, without removing the pump from the vehicle. This reduces fleet downtime. Selection and configuration Selection depends on the tank volume, the nature of the effluent and how intensively the fleet is used. For extra protection against clogging we recommend installing a Börger grinder at the inlet. Alternative mobile solutions — trailer-mounted mobile units for work at remote sites.

Learn more Portable Pumps Börger portable pumps are light, compact units designed to be carried by one or two operators. They are used in emergency and recovery work, in equipment servicing and in places where a trailer-mounted or self-propelled machine cannot be brought in. A solution for contractor crews and emergency services. Design and dimensions At the core is a Börger rotary lobe pump in a compact housing, mounted on a light frame with carrying handles. In the electric-drive version the unit weighs 35 to 70 kg depending on the model. The dimensions are chosen so that the pump fits through standard process hatches and narrow gaps between equipment. A protective cover shields the components during transport in a service vehicle. Technical features Capacity — from 10 to 100 m³/h Self-priming — up to 8 m Discharge pressure — up to 6 bar Pumping of liquids with solids up to 40 mm Hose connection via quick-release couplings Drive — 220/380 V electric motor or petrol engine Where it is used In the oil and gas industry, portable pumps are used during tank farm repairs, when servicing field installations and for work inside fenced process areas. In the municipal sector — for pumping out basements, wells and storm-water sumps. At power facilities — for draining cable ducts and pits. In the food industry — for moving liquid products between tanks. Advantages of the portable version Unlike trailer-mounted units, a portable pump can be carried into a basement, taken up a staircase or flown to a remote site by helicopter. Compared with mobile centrifugal pumps, the Börger rotary design is self-priming, tolerates dry running and handles dirty and viscous liquids without losing capacity. Selection and configuration The basic configuration includes the pump, drive motor, suction and discharge hoses and service tools. Suction strainers and quick-release adapters are available in addition. Related models — the hand-trolley pump for wheeling and the mobile pumping unit for large volumes.

Learn more THW Pump The Börger THW pump is a series of emergency-response pumping units developed to the technical requirements of the German Federal Agency for Technical Relief (Technisches Hilfswerk, THW). It is designed for dealing with floods, pipeline ruptures and major industrial accidents. The design is built for extreme conditions with minimum set-up time. Design and drives The pump is mounted on a reinforced frame with roll bars and lifting points. The power end is an air-cooled diesel engine with an enlarged fuel tank for 6–10 hours of operation. A hydraulic drive from an external source is available as an option. All controls are brought out to a single vandal-resistant panel. Technical specifications Capacity — from 200 to 600 m³/h Self-priming — up to 9 m Discharge pressure — up to 10 bar Pumping of water with solids up to 80 mm, silt and petroleum products Set-up time — from 3 minutes Tip-over protection and operation on slopes up to 15° Application scenarios The main duties are dealing with flooding, pumping from receiving tanks during petroleum product spills and emergency emptying of process vessels. Emergency and civil protection services in Kazakhstan use similar pumps to work in flooded areas and to deal with the aftermath of spring floods. Its versatility across pumped media also makes the unit suitable for industrial plants with their own emergency service. Advantages of the THW series The series was developed to strict reliability requirements: extended component life, protection against contamination and ease of service without special tools. MIP technology allows the pump to be restored to working order quickly in the field. Self-priming and dry-running capability are critical in emergency work — the operator loses no time on preparation. Selection and configuration For routine duties at plants with regular pumping, lighter models are suitable — the mobile pumping unit and the tanker-mounted pump.

Learn more Hand-Trolley Pump The Börger hand-trolley pump is a compact mobile unit on a wheeled frame with a handle for moving it by hand. It is the solution for prompt liquid transfer where fixed equipment cannot be installed: tank servicing, emergency work at remote sites and repair operations in confined access. Design and operating principle The unit is built around a Börger rotary positive-displacement pump with two synchronously rotating lobes. The pump is self-priming — it lifts liquid from up to 7 metres without pre-filling. Reversible operation allows the flow direction to be changed without re-routing the hoses. The drive is an electric motor or an internal-combustion engine depending on the application. A wheeled frame with pneumatic or solid tyres gives mobility over rough ground and stability in operation. The unit's dimensions allow it to be moved through narrow passages and set up in hard-to-reach places. Technical features Capacity — up to 80 m³/h depending on the model Self-priming — up to 7 m Discharge pressure — up to 8 bar Pumping of liquids with solids up to 60 mm Handling of viscous media — up to 100,000 mPa·s Dry running permitted for short periods Where it is used The hand-trolley pump is in demand in the oil and gas industry — for pumping well fluids and oil sludge out of receiving tanks, during pipeline repairs and when servicing tank farms. In municipal services — for emptying grease traps, septic tanks and storm-water sumps. In the food industry — for moving viscous products between process vessels. In agriculture — for pumping liquid manure and silage when loading vehicles. Advantages of the hand-trolley version Unlike fixed pumps, the mobile version lets a single unit serve several sites. Compared with trailer-mounted and self-propelled solutions it wins on cost and needs no towing vehicle. Börger's MIP (Maintenance in Place) design makes it possible to replace worn rotors and seals on site without dismantling the pump. To protect the pump against clogging by large or fibrous solids we recommend fitting an upstream Börger industrial grinder. Selection and configuration The configuration is chosen to suit the liquid parameters, the required capacity and the operating conditions. Versions are available with a 220/380 V electric drive and with a petrol engine for off-grid work.

Learn more Mobile Pumping Unit Börger mobile units are used to pump a very wide range of liquids. Whether they are used … Learn more Fire Pump The Börger fire pump is a mobile or fixed pumping unit for fire protection and firefighting systems. It is used at industrial sites with their own fire safety systems, in the oil and gas sector, at tank farms and wherever water has to be drawn from open sources with a high level of contamination. Features of the firefighting version Unlike centrifugal fire pumps, the Börger rotary design is self-priming: the pump draws water from a river, pond or process reservoir without pre-filling or an ejector. That matters in emergencies, when set-up time is limited. Reversible operation lets the same unit pump the water away once the fire is out. Performance data Capacity — from 60 to 200 m³/h Discharge pressure — up to 16 bar for feeding monitor nozzles Self-priming — up to 9 m Pumping of water with solids up to 60 mm — leaves, sand and debris from open water bodies Material composition compliant with fire safety standards Drive — diesel, petrol or electric Where it is used At oil and gas facilities, Börger fire pumps form part of tank farm protection, spraying burning vessels and cooling adjacent tanks. In refining they are used in foam suppression systems. At industrial plants — in fixed firefighting systems for workshops and warehouses. Mobile versions are configured for the fire crews of industrial sites and airports. Advantages for fire systems High discharge pressure allows water to be delivered to the upper levels of tanks without intermediate pumping stations. The ability to handle contaminated water means it can draw from any available source without risk of jamming. MIP technology makes scheduled maintenance quick — critical for equipment that must not be out of service. Selection and configuration The configuration depends on the asset being protected, the pressure required and the nature of the water source. Versions are available for water, water-foam solutions and for drawing from open water bodies. Related solutions — mobile units for emergency work and THW series pumps for civil protection services.
