Cooling Installation Introduction

Reference Drawings and Documents:


The Seakeeper 1 is shipped with the cooling circuit filled and ready for use. The Seakeeper 1 requires connection to a raw water pump, referred to as the seawater pump, to cool the closed loop cooling circuit on the unit. The required seawater flow through the Seakeeper 1 heat exchanger is between 2 – 4 GPM (7.6 – 15.2 LPM), under all vessel operating conditions. Prior to operation, confirmation of glycol level is required.

Seakeeper offers a compatible self-priming DC Seawater Pump (P/N 30331) that is prewired for the Seakeeper 1 Installation and covered under the standard Seakeeper warranty. See Drawing No. 30331 – DC Seawater Pump, Seakeeper 1 Assembly, for details and the Seakeeper Options and Accessories Price List for pricing information.
