ULTRASONIC HATCH COVER TESTING DEVICE. • Early detection reduces your cost • Identify exact location of cargo hatch leaks • Single crew member operation • Test your hatches even when carrying cargo
Hatchtite™ is a lightweight, portable and robust
instrument for accurate and reliable cargo hatch
cover testing for water tightness on bulk carriers.
By using Hatchtite™ to ensure your hatch covers
are watertight you can prevent cargo damage and
also avoid failing inspection by the Insurance and
Charterers’ surveyor.
Unlike hose and chalk tests, Hatchtite™ allows you
to identify the exact location of the leak - saving you
time. Hatchtite™ indicates when you actually have
the required compression to prevent water getting
into the hold space meaning you can identify any
leaks very early and thus reduce repair costs.
