PRODUCTSS3 Smart Sulphur Switch The S3 system is able to always blend and adjust two fuels to desired sulphur content as well as documenting sulphur content, enabling monitoring and control of sulphur emissions. The primary market for the S3 Smart Sulphur Switch is for vessels that occasionally need to enter an ECA. The secondary market is for vessels, for example ferry operators in the Baltic who choose to install scrubbers that cannot handle more than 2% sulphur con- tent due to space considerations. These operators can freely purchase the cheapest available HFO and blend down. www.insamarine.com Pettit Launches Hydrocoat Eco Pettit has launched the latest product in the Hydrocoat line up, Hydrocoat Eco. Incor- porating Pettits self-polishing, water-based, ablative technology with an organic biocide, Hydrocoat Eco combines a slime ? ghting inhibitor with multi-season protection. Pettits innovative technology re- places the harsh solvents found in most bottom paints with water. With no copper to cause galvanic corrosion issues, Hydrocoat Eco is the perfect choice for bronze IPS and jet drives, outdrives and outboard motors. Hydrocoat Eco will not lose effectiveness when removed from the water. Hydrocoat Eco is available in ? ve colors. www.pettitpaint.com Jotun Introduces Resilient Antifouling Coating Jotun has launched SeaLion Resilient, a high performance marine coating based on epoxy- polysiloxane technology. Jotuns anti-fouling coating includes a compound of resins and hardeners that provides highly resilient hull protection. When combined with Jotuns proven Fouling Release Coatings (FRC) technology, the epoxy-polysiloxane in SeaLion Resilient prevents settling of organisms on the hull and produces a glossy, smooth surface optimized for owners seeking to reduce costs related to dry-docking and maintenance. Resilient is a biocide-free coating and has low VOC emissions, making it a sustainable coating solution. www.jotun.com Hartzell Quality with New Powder Coat Booth Hartzell Air Movement is now offer- ing powder coated products The addi- tion of a new paint booth will increase product consistency and quality control.

Nyalic is an ideal surface protec- tant for highly moist and corrosive environments. Designed to withstand extreme temperatures, it is also a non-conduc- tive polymer coating, effective in preventing corrosion failure of electrical components. Nyalic performs at ? lm thicknesses as low as 5 microns and does not cause heat build-up. www.nyalic.com/marine Thermal Coating Company Penetrates Marine Market Tri-State Coating And Machine Co., Inc., began operation in March 1987 servicing the marine industry.
