Complete separator solutions

To make sure the separation process of valuable liquids on board runs smoothly, the company says that optimum operation of separator control units is an “absolute must”. KET Marine’s electronic separator management systems, available for a range of separator installations from an old C7 control unit to a complete new D10 unit, are designed for ‘plug and play’ installation and continuous, reliable, trouble-free operation. The company is able to program the control units in-house before delivery, so that they are ready for action when they arrive onboard the ship.

Other services offered by the company include a fully-equipped separator workshop with a balancing machine, enabling the full range of Westfalia and Alfa Laval bowls to be fully balanced. The workshop is conveniently located between the ports of Rotterdam and Antwerp. In addition to its balancing service, KET Marine says it holds a large stock of exchange bowls enabling separation systems to be kept operational onboard at all times.

The company’s spare parts service for Westfalia and Alfa Laval separators is backed by combined inspection and training sessions, enabling a clear assessment of a vessel’s current separator operation. Hands-on training can then be performed by one of KET Marine’s technical engineers, to help ensure onboard sustainability and improved efficiency.

All separator spare parts undergo extensive factory tests before despatch, to ensure an correct fit and interchangeability. The company says that all tests are performed with original equipment and are run with the appropriate lubricants or water.
