Framo AS products

Framo hydraulically driven submerged cargo pumps provide safe, efficient and flexible cargo handling of any type of liquid cargo. Improved cargo handling performance gives quicker turnaround time, more ton-miles and fewer voyages in ballast.

More than a half-century after we introduced it, the Framo submerged cargo pump is still a unique solution – used by nearly all vessels in the world that handle liquid cargo. It has the ability to pump any type of liquid cargo, no matter how sensitive or viscous. The Framo cargo pump is a vertical single-stage centrifugal pump powered by a hydraulic motor for safe and efficient operation. All of our cargo pumps are made in stainless steel and designed with a smooth and easy-to-clean surface featuring a limited number of flanges for a superior ability to pump any liquid.

Framo pumping systems ensure safe switching between cargoes, with no risk of cargo contamination, so your vessel can carry anything from acids to drinking water.

Framo deck-mounted cargo heaters eliminate the need for in-tank heating coils. The cargo tank interior can be made with flush tank  top free from coils, brackets and clamps. A flush tank top facilitates quicker stripping with less cargo remaining in the tank. The cargo tank washing can be performed quicker, with less consumption of washing water and less slop handling.
