7 IMO Expands Its Line Of Geared Twin-Screw Pumps —Literature Available The IMO® Pump Division of Transamerica Delaval Inc. has broadened its line of GTS® geared twin-screw pumps to include models with cases, internals, and relief valves of stainless steel, Mo- nel, bronze and NiResist, as well as those with standard internals of cast iron and carbon steel. The new pumps are expected to find wide use in loading and off- loading extremely sour crudes, pumping very high metals content residues from atmospheric and vacuum towers and dirty bottoms from other process units. With a viscosity capability that goes as high as 4.5 x 106 SSU, GTS pumps can help refiners take the very deepest cuts of HGO and will handle pitch, asphalt, tars and other residues even when towers temporarily lose heat—doing away with the need for cutter fluids and hydroblasters. Units get back on stream quickly. GTS pumps will tolerate even the dirtest streams as bearings are isolated from the pumped fluid. They can run dry without damage, retaining prime until feed is re- stored. Capacities run from 20— 7,000 gpm, discharge pressures to 600 psig, and temperatures to 700 F.

The move to Texas will better serve the wide range of companies that cover the mari- time industry, especially those lo- cated along the Gulf Coast. Exhibitors will reach a broad market—tankers, bulkers and containerships; inland and off- shore vessels; tugboats; dredges; drilling ships, jackups and semi- submersibles; workboats; Naval and Coast Guard vessels; and other specialty craft. In addition to the exhibits, con- ference sessions will deal with the problems of ship construction, maintenance, and operation as well as port equipment and services.

New Navidyne Option Reports Ship's Position In Response To Telex Call A shipowner in the home office can obtain an up-to-the-minute re- port on a vessel's position, course, speed, and other vital information with the P-8030 Position Report- ing Option recently introduced by Navidyne Corporation of Newport News, Va. The P-8030 provides an inter- face between Navidyne's ESZ-8000 Satellite Communicator and the ship's satnav or Loran C. It can be added to an existing ESZ installa- tion simply by inserting two printed circuit boards into empty slots in the ESZ-8000 electronics cabinet. A shoreside caller can obtain a complete report with a simple telex message to the ship. Upon receipt of a coded command, the ESZ-8000 automatically returns a position report via telex. A private pass- word must be entered by the caller, insuring protection against unau- thorized calls.
