Among the pumps installed are 10 TPE and Magna pumps, an IMpress pressurisation set supplied via Taylor & Fraser and Pump Action, and a Hydro MPC-E 3-pump booster set supplied in association with Aberdeen Mechanical Services and BSS Aberdeen. The Suttie Centre at Foresterhill will provide training facilities for health professionals.
