Capacity range
The size of a PureBallast 3.1 system is determined by the capacity of the ballast water pumps it is used with.
An optimal configuration is achieved by match ing a reactor setup and filter capacity to the required ballast water flow.

* PB3.1/87 system at reduced flow rate.
For flows in excess of 3000 m3/h, dual systems are installed. With this configuration strategy, PureBallast 3.1 is
competitive over the entire flow range up to 6000 m3/h.
