ABSTRACT:
A ballast arrangement includes a number of tanks and a pump connected to a sea-chest and having a discharge conduit extending to a level above the top-most tank. A distribution conduit extends to the various tanks and an overflow pipe is connected to the discharge conduit and reaches to a further level, above the first mentioned level, where also an evacuation pipe is connected. The further level will determine the static pressure which may act in any of the associated tanks. The tanks may be connected to the suction side of the pump through by-pass conduits, and a two-way valve is designed so the pump can communicate only with either the sea-chest or with the by-pass conduits.
