Compare the Difference Between Fresh Water and Sea Water Pressure Tanks


On the vast and boundless ocean, the safe and stable operation of ships is of paramount importance.  As a professional supplier engaged in the export of marine equipment, we are well aware of this and hereby introduce our marine pressure water tank to you.

The marine pressure water tank is a key component in the ship's water supply system, and the quality of its performance directly affects the normal operation of the ship and the quality of life of the crew.  The marine pressure water tank we provide adopts the most advanced technology and high-quality materials and has passed strict quality tests and practical application tests.

For example, its unique pressure regulation system can ensure stable water pressure and provide you with a continuous and stable water flow whether in rough sea conditions or when the ship's load changes.  Its sturdy and durable cabinet structure can resist various corrosions and impacts in the marine environment and extend its service life.

To help you understand the marine pressure water tank better, this article will introduce Compare the Difference Between Fresh Water and Sea Water Pressure Tanks to you and help you solve your doubts!

Overview

There are mainly differences between fresh water pressure tanks and sea water pressure tanks in the following aspects:

  • Material aspect

  1. Fresh water pressure tank: Due to the relatively weak corrosiveness of fresh water, the tank material can usually use ordinary stainless steel or other metal materials resistant to water corrosion.

  2. Sea water pressure tank: Sea water is highly corrosive. Therefore, the tank generally adopts a higher-level corrosion-resistant stainless steel, such as 316L stainless steel, or uses a special anti-corrosion coating to enhance the corrosion resistance.

  • Usage aspect

  1. Fresh water pressure tank: It is mainly used to supply domestic water on ships, such as for washing, drinking, cooking, etc., and for equipment cooling and cleaning that has higher requirements for water quality.

  2. Sea water pressure tank: It is often used in the fire protection system of ships, deck flushing, sea water cooling system of equipment, etc., for occasions with relatively lower requirements for water quality.

  • Maintenance aspect

  1. Fresh water pressure tank: The maintenance focus is to prevent the growth of bacteria and the accumulation of dirt inside. Regular cleaning and disinfection are relatively important.

  2. Sea water pressure tank: Due to the corrosiveness of sea water, it is necessary to check the corrosion of the tank more frequently, as well as the wear and damage of related components.

Example illustration

For example, on a large cargo ship, the fresh water pressure tank provides clean fresh water for the crew's living area, while the sea water pressure tank stores sea water for the fire protection system for use in case of fire.

Conclusion

In conclusion, fresh water pressure tanks and sea water pressure tanks are different in material selection, usage and maintenance focus to adapt to the characteristics and usage requirements of the water they handle respectively.
