Environmental Equipment

At Andrews Sykes Hire Saudi, we consistently strive to accommodate the market’s ever changing demands by bringing products to market that help alleviate everyday environmental challenges endured by the businesses we work most closely with. Having been at the forefront of the pumping industry for more than a century and a half, we have the expertise to propose and introduce products that protect the environment and can be used in conjunction with our wide range of pump hire equipment.

One of our core responsibilities is to acknowledge and adhere to strict environmental and safety legislation and to ensure that any equipment we pioneer complies with these regulations. Our prominence in this specialist field enables us to quickly grasp the advantages of modern technology which we can then incorporate into our latest product designs.

Silt Away

The Sykes Silt Away provides clients with effective separation of suspended solids and silt from water pumped through ground sources. Typically, these are used on construction sites or quarries that discharge into water courses or surface drainage systems. Water passes through the Silt Away via a Lamella plate box which splits solids contained within the fluid itself, allowing them to be dropped into the discharge chamber below. Use of these tanks allows filtered water to be discharged directly into rivers, canals and surface drains.

Settlement Tanks

Sykes offer a range of settlement tanks to be used on the discharge side of any pump set. These tanks are specially designed to prevent silt and fines being discharged into the water course or drains. Each tank is provided with a series of weir plates, Bauer quick release couplings, lifting eyes and drain plugs.

Drip Trays

Drip trays can be provided with most pumps to avoid potential environmental pollution due to fuel spillage, or oil spillage when refuelling or maintaining pumps. Even if the pump has a built-in drip tray an additional full length tray can give extra protection. These are especially beneficial when working close to waterways or where there is a risk of water pollution.

Fuel Tanks

The safe transportation and storage of fuel, especially in environmentally sensitive areas, is an increasing concern for all. Sykes offers a purpose-built range of fully bunded fuel tanks for hire with a capacity range from 1000 to 3000 litres. Fully compliant and tested to ADR and UN requirements for IBC, all manufactured under ISO 9001: 2000 requirements.
