Solidsvac pumps are in service across mining, oil and gas, marine, wastewater, tunnelling and industrial sites worldwide. From underground coal mines to offshore platforms, they move the material conventional pumps can't.
Mine sites run on uptime. Solidsvac pumps recover ore sludge, tailings and sump waste above and below ground, often as a single mobile unit working where access is tight.
Our IECEx Zone 0 and 1 certification was first developed for underground coal mines, where intrinsically safe equipment is essential. The same standard now covers Solidsvac units on drilling rigs and thermal drilling operations around the world.
Offshore work demands hazardous area certification and equipment that keeps running without constant attention. Solidsvac vacuum systems are used for FPSO tank cleaning and platform pit cleaning in continuous operation.
From treatment plant ponds to water authority digesters, Solidsvac continuous vacuum systems recover high solids sludge over significant vertical lifts, without the wear conventional pumps suffer in this material.
Tunnelling sumps are confined, abrasive and hard on pumps. Solidsvac equipment has de-mucked sumps on tunnelling projects in the Netherlands, handling high solids spoil that conventional pumps struggle to move.
In processing plants and industrial facilities, speed matters as much as capacity. Compact units like the SV40 let one operator respond to spills and decontamination work quickly.
Every pump is built in Caboolture, Queensland. These are some of the places they're working today.
First developed for underground coal mines, where intrinsically safe equipment is essential. Today it covers Solidsvac equipment in hazardous and non hazardous applications around the world.
IECEx Zone 0 and 1 certification means Solidsvac equipment can work in atmospheres where flammable gas or dust may be present, with no separate hazardous area model and no compromise on performance.
It covers drill cuttings transfer onshore and offshore, sump de-mucking in mining and tunnelling, and FPSO tank cleaning, all environments where an ignition source is not an option.
