Technology

Sliding Vane Pumps

Sliding Vane Pumps are ideal for liquid terminal operations due to their many benefits such as self-priming, designed to run dry for short periods, line-stripping capabilities, and volumetric output consistency.

ML – Versatile ductile iron pump for wide range of fluid properties.
HXL – Ductile iron pump for high volume transfer of non-corrosive fluids.
GNX – Alignment free, heavy duty, reduced speed cast iron pump ideal for non-corrosive and non-abrasive liquids.
X – Cast iron pump for clean, non-corrosive liquids.
TX – Truck mounted transfer pump.
NP – Versatile transfer pump for clean, non-corrosive fluids.
SNP – Stainless steel construction for handling corrosive or caustic liquids.
MAGNES - Magnetic drive pumps that provide a leak-free pumping solution for difficult to seal liquids.

Centrifugal Pumps

Centrifugal Pumps – Designed for high-volume, continuous and severe-duty applications such as unloading barges, ships, railcars and tank trucks, and transferring liquids from terminal tanks to loading platforms. These reliable pumps set the standard for seal integrity and extended bearing life.

Gear Pumps

Blackmer® Internal Gear Pumps - which are available in standard duty, heavy duty, and seal-less models - are reliable and affordable solutions that meet or exceed the strict operational and safety demands of a modern Liquid Terminal facility. From ethanol, to lube oils and bitumen, Blackmer has an internal gear pump solution for your needs.

E Series - This magnetic drive internal gear pump eliminates seal leaks, while the patented pump design features ensure optimal performance.
G Series - Durable, flexible and efficient universal bracketed internal gear pumps that excel in challenging fluid-handling applications, while offering part-for part and footprint interchangeable with other models.
V Series - These internal gear asphalt pumps include up to 35% more jacket surface area to address and overcome the challenges of pumping asphalt in a way that is safe, reliable and economical.

Reciprocating Gas Compressors

Providing efficient and quiet delivery of a wide range of liquefied and industrial gases, these gas compressors are used in vapor recovery, pressure boosting, and liquefied gas transfer.

LB Series – Uses pressure for transfer and recovery of gaseous petroleum products.
HD Series – Designed for transfer and recovery of gaseous chemical products using pressure.

Screw Pumps

Blackmer® S Series Screw Pumps are self-priming, double-ended positive displacement pumps that offer outstanding performance in the most demanding applications regardless of temperature, viscosity or pressure.

Twin Screw – With multiple configurations the pumps transfer fluids free of solids and/or with little abrasiveness.
Triple Screw – Ideal for use with liquids across a wide range of viscosities, temperatures and pressures.
