Emergency deballasting
If a problem occurs on a submarine whilst submerged a fast, secure surfacing of the boat is required and the on-board Emergency De-ballasting System EBS will be actuated. By actu-ating the EBS large amounts of air/gas will be transferred into the Main Ballast Tank (MBT) forcing the water out of the tank thus lowering the weight of the submarine and bringing it quickly to the surface.
