01THE MARINE DESCALING OPPORTUNITY
Marine cleaning is hard on surfaces, crews and equipment.
Marine growth, scale and salt deposits harden over time. Cleaning must be effective without causing delay, and the equipment must stand up to coastal conditions.
Corrosive environment
Salt air and spray accelerate wear on equipment.
Dock-time cost
Time in dry dock or at the quay is expensive, so cleaning speed matters.
Remote support
Yards and ports need spares and help that are easy to reach.

Pressure up to 250 Bar for demanding surfaces.
PRIME's higher-pressure platform delivers up to 250 Bar for the tougher end of marine cleaning. Where a deposit needs more than the catalogue range, PRIME engineering will say so and discuss a tailored solution.
CRANKCASEPressure Die-Cast Aluminium Alloy
PUMP HEADBrass Forged
CONNECTING RODSZinc-Aluminium Alloy
PLUNGERSHigh-Grade Ceramic
Triplex plunger architecture
Three plungers deliver smoother, more continuous pressure than single-plunger designs, which suits repeated, long-duty cleaning.
Engineered materials
Pressure die-cast aluminium crankcase, forged brass pump head, zinc-aluminium connecting rods and high-grade ceramic plungers.
100% CNC-machined components
Precision machining at PRIME's own facility supports consistency from one pump to the next.
Premium sealing
Nitrile seals as standard, with Viton available for high-temperature conditions.
Low-noise operation
Designed for smoother, quieter running, which matters in workshops, plants and enclosed spaces.
Electric and IC-engine options
Single or three-phase electric drive and IC-engine options, so the pump can follow the site, not the other way round.
250 Bar platform
Higher-pressure option for harder deposits.
Corrosion-resistant head
Forged brass pump head suits damp, salty environments.
Honest selection
Hard scale beyond the 40-250 Bar catalogue range is flagged early, not oversold.
04PRIME PRESSURE APPLICATION METHODS
From requirement to a repeatable cleaning workflow.
Work from soft to hard, and from top to bottom.
METHOD 01
Hull surface wash
Systematic cleaning of accessible hull areas.
- 1Survey the fouling type and thickness
- 2Start with a general pass to remove loose growth
- 3Targeted higher-pressure pass on stubborn patches
- 4Rinse and inspect surface condition
METHOD 02
Descaling pass
Work through scale in controlled sections.
- 1Choose nozzle and standoff distance for the surface
- 2Work in overlapping strokes
- 3Re-check and repeat on residual scale
- 4Final rinse and surface check
METHOD 03
Deck and jetty wash
Routine maintenance clean for walkable surfaces.
- 1Clear loose items
- 2Pressure pass toward drainage
- 3Rinse salt residue
- 4Log time for maintenance planning
METHOD 04
Equipment pre-service clean
Clean machinery before it is serviced.
- 1Isolate and secure equipment
- 2Wash exterior and fittings
- 3Rinse and dry
- 4Hand over for inspection

06HOW PRIME SAVES TIME & RESOURCES
What changes in your operation?
Time at the quay is the main cost. Measure these four things.
Shorter cleaning window
Applying the right pressure first time reduces repeat passes and dock time.
TRACKHours per vessel section
Less manual scraping
Pressure removes growth that would otherwise need scraping and brushing.
TRACKCrew-hours per cleaning job
Measured usage
Time a pass and record flow to estimate water use per section.
TRACKLitres per section
Fit the power source
Electric and IC-engine options suit different yard power conditions.
TRACKkWh or fuel per shift
