SPEED-PRODUCTION: RAS-Facility pump delivered in two weeks

Lykkegaard produces brand new propeller pump for Norwegian RAS facility in just two weeks from order to delivery

This is our fastest production of a customized pump till now.

The Norwegian RAS facility, Sævareid Fiskeanlegg was in trouble due to lack of rain in the late summer. The tanks are situated so the water naturally flows from the nearby lake through the tanks on its way to the near by river.

But due to lack of rain the level of water in the lake sank so much, that the water flew too slow into the tanks. 

So the need of a new pump was urgent in order to secure the facility and the fresh water to the fish.

At Lykkegaard we have produced pumps for aquaculture for decades - and have already delivered several pumps to Sævareid Fiskeanlegg in Norway. But the need at this point was different - and more comparable to the challenges we meet when we produce pumps for drainage. But at this point we have produced pumps for drainage for more than a century - so of course we took the challenge and designed a pump that could meet their needs. 

We started immediately - luckily we have most parts at our local warehouse, but we had to contact different motor-providers in order to get the motor fast enough.

But we managed to design, produce, manufacture, test and ship the pump to Norway as our fastet production ever.
Exactly two weeks after they placed the order, the pump rolled into the facility in Norway.
