The PETRO-BARRIER™ PUMP PTB-24 is a system for filtering large volumes of rainwater contaminated with dielectric oils for large transformers’ retention tanks and pits. Its self-locking system traps harmful hydrocarbons, preventing soil pollution. Its oleophilic and hydrophobic polymer component permanently traps hydrocarbons. Description The PETRO-BARRIER™ PUMP PTB-24 is a system specially invented by SPI® in the 1990s for easy adaptation to all types of retention tanks and pits. It provides continuous drainage water filtration for large volumes, while trapping harmful hydrocarbons: it therefore prevents soil pollution in accordance with EN 858-1 and the Water Act, with a discharge rate of less than 5ppm. It also complies with paragraph 471 of NF C13-200 (“All precautions must be taken to ensure that the recovery tank does not fill with water or that water is evacuated“). Our filters are regularly tested in independent laboratories, when new, in half-life conditions and after their recommended period of use (see Additional Information tab). In the event of a major hydrocarbon spill, the component reacts and forms a plug, preventing any fluid from spilling into the environment. It is a self-locking system, operating without any mechanical parts or electrical connections. The PETRO BARRIER™ PUMP has two separate chambers: one for fluid intake at the top, the other for filtration at the bottom provided by an SPI® PETRO BARRIER™ anti hydrocarbons filter water cartridge. Pre-filtration of the inlet water is vital to avoid blocking the PETRO BARRIER too frequently with dust.
