The unique design of MMS900 water level detectors allows them to be installed so that they are totally isolated from the cargo and protected from mechanical damage during cargo operations. They can be installed without the need for any structural alterations or piping work within the cargo holds. Each MMS900 level switch is totally corrosion-proof and protected against dust ingress.
Bulksafe is a water ingress detection system (WIDS) specifically designed for bulk carriers. It is a comprehensive system that consists of a central control and alarm panel, along with intrinsically safe MMS900 water level detectors installed in each compartment of the ship’s holds. The system is engineered to detect and monitor water ingress in the cargo holds of bulk carriers, providing early warning signals to prevent potential flooding incidents. Bulksafe is known for its easy installation, compact design, compliance with international maritime standards, and durability against dust ingress and corrosion.
The Bulksafe control and alarm panel indicates the alarm status for each named compartment with discrete signals for 0.5m and 2m alarm levels. The system incorporates an optional function to provide a fully automatic ‘in-situ’ functional test of all detectors, even whilst cargo is present in the holds. With integral safety barriers, the Bulksafe is the most compact system available on the market.
