Marine Fuel Pump

Introduction of Marine Fuel Pump

The operation of the engine requires a marine fuel pump. The engine needs gasoline to work, and the fuel pump sends it under pressure to ensure smooth operation and efficient engine operation. Marine fuel pumps supply fuel directly from the tank to the individual cylinders. This operation must be performed under high pressure to ensure good combustion.

Regardless of the load, the fuel pump can supply a certain amount of fuel to all cylinders at the correct intervals according to the firing order. A fuel pump supplies high pressure fuel to the injectors. Next, the valve is opened against the tension of the spring and injected fuel is injected into the cylinder. There are two main types of fuel pumps used in the shipbuilding industry. Cleaning and purging and common rail injection systems.

Transfer Pump:- As the name suggests, this pump is used to transfer fuel oil. The fuel oil is transferred from the DB tank to the settling tank. When considering a pump, consider all of the following parameters to ensure safe and efficient operation of the pump (HFO is the fluidity that is heated to 30-35°C before passing through the pump).

Booster Pump:- This pump is used to pump the F.O from the mixing column to the engine preheater. Two pumps are used in the system, one is running and the other is on standby.

The pressure of the FO is also increased by this pump.
