Draft, Trim and List
The most important measurements onboard are the measuring points for calculating draft, 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 draft. Usually, two forepeak measuring points and two additional afterpeak measuring points are used.
Reliability and Accuracy 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 in addition to high corrosion resistance.
VEGABAR 17 for Bubbler Measurement Systems
The bubbler technique is one of the oldest and best known methods of draft measurement. VEGABAR 17 is convincing in this application due to its price/performance ratio and the function zero/span adjustment.
