Hatch Sure
ultrasonic hatch cover leak detector
Cygnus Hatch Sure is an ultrasonic leak detector able to perform a quick and effective evaluation of cargo hold hatch covers and door seals to determine water leaks and weather tightness.
The system consists of a battery powered transmitter containing 19 ultrasound emitters (40 kHz). The emitters are arranged to produce an omni-directional sound field, uniformly distributed throughout the cargo hold.
The receiver part of the system 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.
Applications
- For testing watertight doors
- For use in confined spaces
- Sealed integrity checks on large yachts
- Test seals in cargo access areas, such as bow, side and stern doors or any opening that needs to be sealed
- Test the weather tightness of cargo hatch covers or doors.
