The Seakeeper 9 is shipped with the cooling circuit filled and ready for use. The Seakeeper 9 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 9 heat exchanger is between 4 – 8 GPM (15.1 – 30.3 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 pre-wired for the Seakeeper 9 installation and covered under the standard Seakeeper Warranty. See Drawing No. 30331, Seaflo Seawater Pump Assembly for details and the Seakeeper Options and Accessories Price List for pricing information.
