The SURVEYOR Water Ingress Detection & Alarm System is designed to detect the presence of water in the cargo holds of bulk carriers.
The system is in full compliance with regulations, following the International Association of Classification Societies’ adoption of a unified interpretation of the International Maritime Organization’s (IMO) Performance Standards for Water Level detectors on Bulk and single hold General Cargo Carriers (to be enforced in 2007 onwards).
Regulation requires bulkers to be fitted with water ingress detection equipment that will provide audible and visual alarms on the bridge in the event of water levels being detected in cargo holds (at two levels) and other spaces forward of the first collision bulkhead.
