Engine Room

Ventilation

A good supply of clean air to the engine room is essential.

A sophisticated system has been designed to control the volume of air which is forced into the engine room via an intake on the upper deck.

A mist eliminator is fitted to the intake to prevent moist salt laden air getting into the engine room and up to 2780 litres of air per second can be pumped into the engine room to keep everything cool and ventilated. The quantity of air is controlled via a system measuring engine room temperature compared to ambient temperature and the fans are automatically controlled accordingly.
