Cargo - Import export

Cygnus ultrasonic hatch cover weathertightness tester has been ABS type approved and accepted by P & I clubs. This ultrasonic hatch cover testing device is used to perform quick and effective evaluation of cargo hold hatch covers and door seals to determine water leaks and weathertightness. This ultrasonic leak detection system allows inspections to be carried out with cargo in place or in subzero temeprature, replacing traditional and unreliable methods such as hose testing. The Cygnus Hatch Sure system comprises of 2 parts a battery powered transmitter containing 19 ultrasound emitters (40 kHz) which are arranged to produce an omnidirectional sound field uniformly distributed throughout the cargo hold; and a receiver which displays the sound energy level that passes through gaps in the enclosed cargo hold to enable the location of leaks to be quickly and accurately identified.
