Desalination systems also rely on pumps to convert saltwater into freshwater, providing a vital resource for onboard use. Saltwater wash-downs are another common application, where pumps deliver high-pressure saltwater for cleaning decks, equipment, and other areas on the vessel. These pumps facilitate efficient rinsing and maintenance operations. Pumps are crucial for ballast water management, transferring saltwater into or out of ballast tanks to maintain vessel stability, balance and trim.
