    HATCHTITETM is a device that tests the tightness of cargo hatch covers using ultrasound waves to identify small leaks and areas lacking compression. Unlike traditional tests, it can accurately determine if the required compression exists to prevent water from entering the hold. The portable device is simple to use and receives ABS Type Approval. It transmits ultrasound from inside the hold while a handheld microphone detects sounds passing through the hatch cover from outside, pinpointing leak locations.

    prevent cargo damage. Unlike hose and chalk tests, which
    only demonstrate whether or not there is contact between the r Simple to use, accurate and reliable

    HATCHTITE uses a transmitter placed inside the cargo r Full ABS Type approval
    hold (empty or with cargo) emitting ultrasound waves. With
    the hatch covers closed, a hand held telescopic microphone
    is used at the hatch cover interfaces. The system is fully
    compliant with IACS Unified Requirement U.R.Z17 and
    approved by insurers.

    Specifications
    The principal of operation for ultrasonic cargo hatch tightness Transmitter
    testing is remarkably simple. An ultrasonic transmitter is
