Portascanner® WATERTIGHT PLUS

SKU: COL-0001

Introducing the Portascanner® WATERTIGHT PLUS, the world-leading fully ABS Type-Approved & RINA-Accepted, watertight integrity tester for inspecting watertight and weathertight seals on ships and marine structures such as warships and offshore oil & gas platforms.

The Portascanner® WATERTIGHT PLUS offers functionality and display, all packaged into a smart, ergonomic, and rugged enclosure. With the implementation of three testing modes, the user has much greater control when testing a large variety of hatch covers and watertight structures.

A new user interface upgrade now allows the user to switch between Linear, Decibel (dB) and Open-Hatch modes (specific for testing hatch covers) displaying the percentage leak, making it even more efficient and user-friendly than its predecessor, the Portascanner® Watertight.

Ultrasonic Watertight Integrity Indicator designed for watertight structures and hatch covers

Coltraco Ultrasonics is proud to introduce the latest addition to our Portascanner® range, the Portascanner® WATERTIGHT PLUS. Building on the success of the original Portascanner® WATERTIGHT, this new and improved version offers greater accuracy and versatility for testing the integrity of sealed compartments, watertight/weathertight doors, hatch-covers, and multiple cable transit (MCTs) areas.

One of the key features of the Portascanner® WATERTIGHT PLUS is its user-friendly display and versatile instrument that can detect holes as small as 0.06 mm.

In addition to its unbeatable accuracy, the Portascanner® WATERTIGHT PLUS also offers three intelligent operational modes (including one mode specific for testing hatch covers) and additional power settings. This allows operators to test a wide variety of structures with greater control and precision.

Another important feature of the Portascanner® WATERTIGHT PLUS is its multi-directional, 5-transducer variable gain generator. This allows for more optimized testing and provides greater flexibility when working on structures of various sizes from large cargo holds to smaller watertight compartments. Additionally, it also has a flexible sensor wand which allows testing in tight and difficult places such as MCTs.

The table below illustrates the information that is presented in the three display modes that the user can switch between. In the Open-Hatch mode (specific for testing hatch covers), the percentage leak value is displayed throughout all three display modes below.

OPTION 1: decibel (dB) OPTION 2: Linear/ numerical OPTION 3: OHV %
Up to 33 dB = watertight seal 0 – 5 = watertight seal WATERTIGHT
33 dB – 57 dB = weathertight seal 6 – 100 = weathertight seal WEATHERTIGHT
58+ dB = weak seal compression 101+ = weak seal compression LEAK
high values = full leak site For hatch cover: above 10% OHV = leak site.
high values = full leak site
Percentage leak value also displayed.

The Portascanner® WATERTIGHT PLUS is also easy to use, with training provided and no need for time-consuming, expensive courses. This means that any operator can use the instrument with minimal training. Furthermore, it is a hand-held instrument that can be deployed regularly with the crew in situ, making it a reliable and efficient way to check for watertightness and weathertightness.

The Portascanner® WATERTIGHT PLUS is the perfect tool for marine industry professionals who must ensure the integrity of watertight and weathertight seals on ships and marine structures. Its advanced features, user-friendly design, and easy-to-use functionality offer unparalleled accuracy and versatility for marine maintenance and testing.
