A large international storage company in the port of Rotterdam use robust variable frequency drives (VFDs) from Emotron to operate the pumps that distribute oil from and to each tank location.
Additionally each storage tank has its own Emotron VFD controlled pump to transport oil to the road truck filling bay.
The tank pits in Rotterdam are fully automated and have a flexible infrastructure. Emotron FDU variable frequency drives operate the pumps that make it possible to discharge from and load to each location at the terminal at steady high pump speeds.
In addition, each tank is provided with its own pump loading line to the truck loading bay. The tanks are designed to store many different oils or chemicals.
The company also uses hi-tech barges and coasters fitted with Emotron drives.
In the port of Rotterdam it is all about planning and efficiency – this is the reason that this port has become one of the main ports of the world. This tank storage facility operates 24/7 and downtime is not an option.
When an oil tanker has to unload longer than planned, costs will increase significantly. CG Emotron is available 24/7 to prevent and shorten unplanned downtime.
Thanks to a wide range of communication options, Emotron VFDs can be easily controlled by master controllers.
During commissioning, the user configures all motor data and levels. The self-learning program then takes over, taking the measurements and calculating process data to enable optimal control. Features include load monitoring, best efficiency point and flow estimation.
