The distance of the water level, even in ideal position, chan-
ges in a way that only 458 mm distance remain. So the criti-
cal distance is under-run already.

In this case the water level rose so high, that the distance
constitutes only 325 mm.
Even when the collector is mounted in the ideal spot, at an extremely tilted position of 45 degrees there is still the
risk that water can get straight into the discharge stack area through strong rocking motion (’Sloshing’). This shows
that the distance of 600 mm represents a minimum size at which, even when installed ideally, the water can slosh
into the exhaust elbow when the ship is very tilted or rocks very hard.
Summary:
The preset minimum height of 600 mm must be regarded unconditionally and is only valid, if the water collector is
mounted in its ideal position in center underneath the generator. A higher position is highly recommended if it has to
be reckoned with tilted positions of 45 degrees.
