A.2.2 Components of Cooling System (Seawater)
Seawater intake
The diagram shows the supply pipes for
the generator. The connection neck for
the seawater connection is shown on the
left hand side. The cross-section of the
intake pipe should be nominally larger
than the generator connection.

Seawater impeller pump
The seawater 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.

Heat exchanger
Separates the seawater system from the
freshwater system.
