Alfa Laval PureBallast 3 is the third generation of the leading ballast water treatment technology – and the first solution to be revised G8 ready. Type approved by the U.S. Coast Guard as well as by IMO, it offers unmatched performance in the most challenging waters. Over 2400 PureBallast systems have been sold to date, including hundreds installed as retrofits.
Energy efficient, Alfa Laval PureBallast 3 offers superior performance in all waters: fresh, brackish and marine. It is also the ideal system for low-clarity water, able to operate at full flow where UV transmittance is as low as 42%.
In addition, Alfa Laval PureBallast 3 has the backing of a well-prepared supplier. Large-scale production resources, strong partnerships and a well-developed service offering make Alfa Laval the confident choice in ballast water treatment.
Ballast water treatment is all about protecting the environment. But acquiring a ballast water treatment system is all about your needs: being able to sail smoothly, with timely deliveries and fulfilled obligations towards your customers.
Alfa Laval has a complete approach to meeting your needs – now and throughout the vessel lifetime.
Alfa Laval PureBallast 3 has received an updated type approval from the U.S. Coast Guard (USCG). The new certificate makes it possible for vessels to deballast in United States waters with a holding time of just 2.5 hours – which is only needed when crossing between Captain of the Port Zones.
In partnership with Framo, Alfa Laval has developed a solution for providing additional pumping head when PureBallast 3 Ex is installed in a deckhouse. By ensuring that the PureBallast 3 Ex system can handle its own pressure requirements, the optional booster pump unit (BPU) emoves the need for changes in the existing ballast pumping system, thereby retaining its optimization and the vessel’s cargo offloading rates.
