Portascanner™ ultrasonic hatch cover tester II is an improved version of the Portascanner™, first produced in 1993. The research, development and re-design has been carried out by our in-house team in conjunction with several years’ customer surveys and trials, to improve ultrasonic watertight integrity testing as an alternative to water hose or pressure testing. The new model incorporates lightweight materials and state of the art electronics.
The Portascanner™ II both locates a leak site and indicates its extent in a simple hand held format. The unit offers surveyors and inspectors a lightweight, ultrasonic method for inspecting the watertight integrity of ships’ hatch covers, seals, holds, bulk heads and any other holding vessel or water-tight compartment. Being ultrasonic it can be operated even during the loading and unloading of cargo, thereby saving time and costs. The risk of environmental pollution from water run-off and non-compliance with port state rules and regulations are also removed.
