Used in the Marine Industry to control the roughness of a ship’s hull, this instrument plays an important role in the operating costs of a vessel.
The roughness of a ship’s hull increases mainly due to corrosion, pitting, plate undulation, mechanical
damage, dry spray and above all bio fouling. Proper maintenance and the correct application of high-end anti-fouling coatings reduce
the hull roughness which will
lead to significant savings on fuel
consumption and CO2 emissions.
The hull roughness is measured
during in-docking and out-docking.
The Hull Roughness Gauge measures
the AHR value (Average Hull
Roughness) of sea going vessels.
AHR is the ‘mean’ of all the vessel’s
hull roughness readings and is the
measure against which ship’s performance
is correlated. |
