Abstract
A pumping system for shipboard use is comprised of a submersible centrifugal dewatering pump driven by a high pressure hydraulic motor mounted directly on the submersible pump, a hose means being connected from the hydraulic motor to a hydraulic pump located up on deck and arranged to be driven by an engine-driven standby fire pump. Quick couple-disconnect couplings are provided so that the pumping system can be operated in a dewatering mode, a fire fighting mode or a mode in which the pumping system supplies a source of power for operating various emergency power tools in holds or under water. Another pumping system has a discharge line from a fire pump arranged to drive a water motor mounted on a submersible pump for driving the same.
