Ballast Water Treatment Equipment of the M/Y Run Away

The 37 meters long yacht is equipped with ballast tanks but had also very limited available space onboard, BIO-SEA Low Flow L01- 030 (max. flowrate: 30 m³/h) has been chosen to achieve compliance with the “BWM Convention”. 

Further to the unmatched compactness of the system, the quality, and the easiness of use of BIO-SEA Low Flow range systems, along with extended BIO-SEA experience serving the yachting industry, have been key criteria for decision takers. 

BIO-SEA Low Flow systems run with top-of-the-line ultra compact ELC (Electronic Ballast) instead of a cumbersome power cabinet. Distribution and control cabinet being compact as well, all electrical components could have been installed on a 155cm long space against the wall, with no sacrifice of space and no need of relocation of other equipment. 

A narrow space nearby the electrical components turned out to be sufficient to fit all main mechanical components. 

Such integration is allowed by the unique one UV lamp / reactor design of BIO-SEA systems. Service on the UV reactor can be done from the side, pulling out horizontally the lamp. 

The unit has been delivered in loose components and the shipyard took in charge actual integration of each component onboard.  It has been successfully commissioned by a BIO-SEA certified service engineer on January, 2021.
