CROSSFIRE Chemical Pump

March 1, 2026

The Challenge

Traditional chemical injection systems rely on fuel gas‑driven pumps and pneumatic instrumentation, creating continuous greenhouse gas emissions and inefficient chemical delivery. High‑pressure injection demands significant energy that is difficult to supply at remote sites—especially during winter months with limited solar availability. At brownfield facilities, capital constraints and limited visibility into injection performance further drive over‑injection, higher chemical spend and rising operating costs.
The Solution

The Solution

Spartan Controls implemented the LCO Crossfire™ Chemical Pump, a 24VDC, Class 1 Div 1, all‑electric pump with an optional solar configuration. Designed for ultra‑high efficiency, the Crossfire operates on less power than an 8‑watt LED light bulb and can achieve up to 17 days of autonomy using a small solar and battery setup—making it ideal for remote installations.
 
A single LCO Crossfire pump replaced up to four pneumatic pumps, significantly reducing equipment count and simplifying maintenance. Integrated remote connectivity provided enhanced monitoring and control, giving operators real‑time insight into chemical injection performance and enabling optimization across operating conditions.

The Value

The electric chemical injection solution delivered measurable environmental and economic benefits:
 
  • 100% elimination of fuel gas use for chemical injection, removing a direct source of GHG emissions
  • Up to 75% reduction in pump count, with one electric pump replacing up to four pneumatic units
  • Lower capital cost when consolidating multiple pumps into a single unit
  • Reduced operating costs through improved injection accuracy and lower chemical consumption
  • Improved ESG performance, supporting top‑quartile producer objectives
  • Greater operational insight, enabling optimized injection and proactive maintenance
