Biocide Use in Marine Coatings Faces Growing Regulations
Authorities worldwide are increasingly imposing restrictions and bans on biocide use in marine coatings to protect marine life and human health.
Marine organisms easily transported via ships' ballast water or hulls pose a severe threat to global marine biodiversity by outcompeting native species. This has already happened in various regions. A recent study identified around 800 invasive aquatic species, making the Mediterranean the most invaded sea globally. Alarmingly, 71% of leisure vessels carried non-indigenous species.
Ultrasonic antifouling systems pose no harm to marine life, emitting waves that don't interfere with fish or marine mammals' sonar and avoiding the release of harmful chemicals into the food chain.
The Marisonia anti-fouling system consists of control box, transducers and cabling. Number of transducers to be used may vary depending on the length of the vessel.
Marisonia conducts ultrasonic frequency scanning on the transducers within the range of 20-60 kHz.
The product can operate with 12/24V power supply. In the event of reverse voltage, the product remains undamaged. It is equipped with a replaceable fuse for short-circuit protection.
On average, the product consumes 6W.
Marisonia features Power and Info LEDs. The Power LED illuminates in green when the DC-DC converter on the card produces an output. The Info LED flashes in red at different intervals to indicate the connection status of the transducers.
Marisonia's control box weighs 800 grams and measures 20x16x6 cm. Each transducer mounted on the boat hull weighs 430 grams and has dimensions of 6x8 cm.
The Marisonia ultrasound transducers are easily affixed to the dry side of the surface to be safeguarded. These transducers generate a minuscule, finely modulated pressure pattern within the water layer directly in contact with the protected surface.
Ensuring seamless integration, Marisonia facilitates easy installation through our proficient installation teams, allowing optimal system utilization within a mere half-day timeframe.*
