✅ Compliance with International Regulations: Fully meets all international ballast water discharge standards set by the USCG and IMO, enabling vessels to operate smoothly in different regions without regulatory concerns.
✅ Advanced UV Disinfection Performance: Medium – pressure UV lamps are employed to effectively inactivate a wide range of organisms and pathogens present in the ballast water, ensuring high – quality treatment.
✅ Automatic Self – Cleaning Filter Mechanism: Utilizes negative pressure suction to remove particles larger than 50μm without the need for manual intervention, reducing maintenance requirements and ensuring continuous operation.
✅ Flexible Installation and Operation: Available in both horizontal and vertical configurations, allowing it to fit into diverse engine room layouts for easy integration and operation.
Advanced Treatment Technology
Mechanical Filtration Stage
- Self – Cleaning Filter Unit: This unit automatically eliminates organisms and solids larger than 50µm from the ballast water, preventing them from entering the subsequent treatment stages and ensuring the purity of the treated water.
- Multiple Control Modes: It offers three control modes – time – based, pressure – differential, and manual operation. This flexibility allows operators to choose the most suitable mode based on the specific operating conditions of the vessel.
- Low – Maintenance Design: The automatic backflush feature ensures continuous operation without the risk of clogging. It regularly cleans the filter, maintaining its optimal performance and reducing the need for frequent manual maintenance.
Ultraviolet Disinfection Stage
- Medium – Pressure UV Technology: Effectively inactivates aquatic nuisance species (ANS) and pathogens in the ballast water. The medium – pressure UV lamps emit a broad – spectrum of ultraviolet light, which disrupts the DNA and RNA of these organisms, rendering them harmless.
- Omnidirectional Anti – Scaling: The ultrasonic cleaning system prevents the formation of biofilm and scaling on the quartz sleeves of the UV lamps. This ensures that the UV light can penetrate the water effectively, maintaining high – efficiency disinfection.
- High – Efficiency Disinfection Guarantee: The system is designed to achieve an organism inactivation rate of ≥99.9%, providing a high level of protection against the spread of invasive species through ballast water discharge.
