NEW PRODUCTSHandy, Quick Legionella Tests for Cruise ShipsAlbagaia announced is range of Hydrosense Legionella testing kits which are de-signed to suit the marine industry. Shipping has been increasingly hit by demands of of? cialdom in health and safety compliance viz a viz Legionella. Vessels failing tests can be stuck in port for days awaiting remedial solutions and yet more tests proving compliance; the latter can take up to two weeks. This can mean a lot of refunds for Pax vessels or lost charter days for others, not to mention damaged reputations. An expen-sive diving team or ROV operator crew going sick with legionnaires disease is never going to be a cheap activity. Albagaia MD Graham Tyrie said, “The beauty of these kits is that they are economical, can be stored on board and will give an accurate result in 25 minutes ... this is a process that the second engineer, for instance, can carry out and you don’t need a contractor.” This allows owners to do tests on the spot, without lab trained personnel and without the hassle of sending samples from remote locations to test laboratories that can take up to 14 days to produce results. Various test options are available, including a simple “quick single test.” Other test kits come in compound form that allow for multiple system testing (showers and pipes, for instance) and bio ? lm testing in tanks, spas, aircon and hydrofor, for instance. www.albagaia.comAMSOIL Introduces New Clean Marine to Supply EGCS The New FARO Laser Scanner Arctic Synthetic Grease for Tanker NewbuildsFocus3D X 33New AMSOIL Arctic Synthetic Clean Marine has been FARO Technologies released the FARO Laser Grease is formulated to withstand selected by Hudong-Scanner Focus3D X 330.

Delta “T” Systems said it offers a single comprehensive source for all the components that make up an engineered system. Effective marine ventilation requires more than just fans to promote air ? ow. Equally important in maintaining an optimal engine room environment, moisture eliminators maintain the dry conditions that motors demand, while dampers provide an all-important safety mechanism. The control system coordinates all operations. Delta “T” not only carries a full range of such custom-designed ventilation products, it provides the expertise necessary to engineer the ultimate engine room formula for recreational and commercial vessels of all sizes.Moisture eliminators are the ? rst line of defense in a Delta “T” engineered system. The company’s marine-grade moisture control products, available in any size and shape, effectively extract mist and sea water from intake air to help keep engine rooms dry.Delta “T” engineers its fans expressly for tough marine environments, rather than adapting units from other industries. The brain of any engineered ventilation setup, a control system regulates air ? ow into and out of the engine room. State-of-the-art, demand-based modules from Delta “T” are designed speci? cally for marine applica-tions. They automatically maintain optimum air pressure and ? ow volume under any conditions, yet enable manual control when needed. A touch screen interface offers nu-merous diagnostics that make operation and adjustment simple and pinpoint accurate. Features such as variable fan speed and direction control ensure maximum ef? ciency.58 Maritime Reporter & Engineering News • FEBRUARY 2014MR #2 (50-58).indd 58 MR #2 (50-58).indd 58 2/4/2014 4:21:22 PM2/4/2014 4:21:22 PM
