Details of functional units
4.3.1 Components of Cooling System (Raw water)
Raw water intake
The diagram shows the supply pipes for
the generator. The connection neck for
the raw water connection is shown on the
left hand side. The cross-section of the
intake pipe should be nominally larger
than the generator connection.

Raw water impeller pump
The raw water pump is fitted with a rubber
impeller. This pump is self-inductive. If, for
example, you forget to open the sea
valve, then you must expect the impeller
to be destroyed after a short period of
time. It is recommended to store several
impellers on board as spare parts.

Impeller strainer
If the impeller breaks, the parts will be
caught by the impeller filter.
