WIDESPRAY
- Shipboard dispersant spray system
The WIDESPRAY dispersant spray system comprises of a diesel driven pump set, a pair of spray arms fitted
with special nozzles and a set of hoses for the suction of seawater, dispersant and discharge to the spray
arms.
The WIDESPRAY unit can be diesel or electrically driven.
The pump set is fitted with a flow meter and a recirculation valve that allows you to set the flow rate
according to the desired application rate.
For dilute spraying an eductor is fitted which will give a mixture of up to 30% dispersant chemical in the
seawater. This percentage can be varied.
The standard 4-6 m spray arms can be fixed to the sides of a vessel, preferably near the bow. Each arm is
supplied with 3-4 nozzles that provide an even spray pattern.
The nozzles are provided with down pipes for vessels with a high freeboard.
