HAT CHecker
HATCHecker: Ultrasonic Hatch Cover Testing
The Specialized Solution for Marine Cargo Integrity
Ensuring that hatch covers are weathertight is critical for protecting cargo and ensuring ship safety. The HATCHecker is a specialized ultrasound solution designed specifically to verify the tightness of hatch covers and seals. As the official representative in Iraq, Rhein Global provides this essential tool to help ship owners, surveyors, and port authorities ensure cargo remains dry and safe.
Why Choose HATCHecker?
-
Marine-Focused Performance: Specifically engineered to detect ultrasound leaking through hatch cover seals, gaskets, and coamings.
-
Accurate & Repeatable: Unlike traditional hose testing, ultrasound testing is more accurate, doesn’t require a water supply, and can be performed even in freezing temperatures.
-
Ultimate Simplicity: Built on the user-friendly Checker platform. Switch it on, place your transmitter inside the hold, and start testing immediately.
-
Vibrant Visual Feedback: The color OLED display provides digital measurements, allowing for precise reporting and trend tracking over time.
