Draught, trim and list
The most important measurements on board are the measuring points for calculating draught, trim and list. Ship safety depends heavily on them. Using the transmitted values from the different measuring points, the load master, as part of the cargo control system (CCS), can determine the exact values of ship orientation and draught. Usually, two measuring points forepeak and two additional measuring points afterpeak are used.
Reliable and accurate with VEGAWELL 52
VEGAWELL 52 pressure transmitters ensure reliable and accurate measuring results. The encapsulated stainless steel housing in protection class IP 68 and IP 69K provides reliable protection against external moisture for the electronics and measuring cell. The rugged sapphire ceramic measuring cell can withstand pressure shocks up to 20 times higher than the nominal measuring range and features high corrosion resistance against seawater.
VEGABAR 17 for bubbler measurement systems
The bubbler technique is one of the oldest and best known methods of draught measurement. VEGABAR 17 was convincing in this application due to itsprice/performance ratio and the function zero/span adjustment.
