What is a Hydrophore Tank?
It is used to maintain the pressure of the water supplied to the different parts of the ship at various heights to keep the constant presser of water in all lines and at all floors of the ship.
There are two hydrophore systems used on board:
because it helps them keep in traction
The pressure in a hydrophore system on a ship is typically maintained at around 4-6 bar (58-87 psi). This pressure is necessary to ensure a constant and reliable water supply for various onboard systems and facilities. The hydrophore system helps regulate and maintain this pressure to meet the ship's operational needs.
A hydrophore tank is a pressurized water tank that is used to maintain water pressure in a water system. It works by utilizing a pump to fill the tank with water, which is then pressurized using air. When the water pressure drops below a certain level, the pump kicks in to refill the tank and maintain consistent water pressure throughout the system.
A hydrophore pumping system is a water supply system that uses a hydrophore, or pressure tank, to maintain water pressure in plumbing systems. It typically consists of a pump, pressure tank, and control system that works together to deliver water at a consistent pressure, ensuring efficient operation and reducing the risk of water hammer. These systems are commonly used in residential and commercial buildings to provide a reliable source of water for various applications.
A hydrophore system is a system comprising a powerful pump unit and a pipeline that is designed to increase the pressure of water from the urban mains so that water can be supplied to the higher storeys of a tall building.
They are used for measuring the depth of ullage space in an oil tank.

There is no gas tank on a cruise ship. There are fuel tanks, which hold the bunker fuel and they are usually located in the bilge of the ship. (Compartments below the waterline)
