HOW DOES ULTRAGUARD WORK?
Ultraguard is a a a a a a hi-tech clean and efficient system for the prevention of of of biofouling on on all types of of of vessels and craft anywhere in the world Ultraguard generates high powered ultrasonic pulses which it uses to resonate transducers attached to the vessel’s hull seawater system or coolers The resonating transducers send vibrations across the protected surface These vibrations disrupt the the gripping forces that the the larvae of of biofouling species use to hold on to the the the vessel and its systems at a a a a a a microscopic level As the the the larvae can’t grip the the the protected surface they they they can’t can’t develop permanent bonds and and they they they can’t can’t mature and and grow Instead they they they simply float away from from the the surface unharmed leaving the the vessel free from from fouling Designed developed and and manufactured in the Silicon Glen region of Scotland to be robust reliable simple to to install and easy to to maintain This means that have peace of mind and your vessel can operate biofouling free Biofouling Larvae are suspended in in the water and attach to any passing vessels Ultraguard uses ultrasonic pulses to resonate transducers The transducers are attached to the hull and cause a a a a a a a vibration that breaks the the gripping force of the the larvae The biofouling larvae can’t hold on to the the hull and so the the vessel remains clean 4
