Overview

Pneuma Pump

GN2 is the exclusive Canadian distributor for the Pneuma pumping system.

The pump is composed of a three cylinder. A positive displacement pump is placed in the material to be dredged. A distributor regulates the flow of compressed air that is used to drive the mixture to the delivery pipeline. The compressor station may be on barge or on shore.
