LeeSan has created customised, individual pumpout facilities for boatowners at Bargeworld, Shepperton Marina.
To provide an upgraded service for berth holders at Bargeworld, Shepperton Marina, Midlands based Marine Sanitation Specialists LeeSan were tasked by the owners to design and install an updated pumpout system.
The new design utilises a manifold system connected to six bollards each of which features its own stop valve and a quick release connection. Accompanying these are four Stainless Steel hose hangers carrying 30m of LeeSan pumpout hose terminating in “special” LeeSan ISO8099 “hands free probe valves complete with sight glass.
This means that owners no longer need to cast off and move to a pumpout berth every time they need to empty their tanks. Each bollard is now shared by four boats, which simply unroll the appropriate hose, connect and use the facility.
The system utilises a reliable and well-proven, token operated LeeSan LS200HPW station housed in a modern, mirror finish, Stainless Steel Cabinet, ensuring that everything is clean and simple to use. This powerful unit is able to handle suction up to 100m and can pump to a discharge distance of 250m plus.
Karl Sutcliffe, Technical Director of LeeSan said: “Like it or not, we now live in a world where the provision of convenient service is ever more important and is becoming the expected norm for businesses to provide. Just look at the growth of food delivery services as an example. This means that we in the Marine Industry need to think along the same lines and offer and provide convenient, easy-to-use solutions to our customer’s needs.”
