Gas Freeing Fans Gas Freeing Fans

Victor Marine offer a range of water and air driven portable fans which can be used to free
gas from the tanks of VLCC’s down to the smaller and more sophisticated product and chemical
carriers. Gas freeing on-board ships is carried out for various reasons including change of cargo,
health and safety and tank maintenance. It is essential that it is done efficiently and safely. Our
range of gas freeing fans all have ATEX (Category 2) approval, intended for use in potentially
explosive atmospheres, making them ideal for a wide range of applications. These three factors
are paramount in the design, manufacturing and development of the fans and is therefore reflected
in both their performance and reputation. Our fans compliment the tank washing business and
are still marketed under the Victor Pyrate brand name - one of the best known and respected
names in the marine market.
