NcNab Now American Supplier Of Aquacatch® Speed Through Water Log
McNab, Inc., Mt. Vernon, N.Y., a U.S.-based marine electronic instrumentation manufacturer and supplier, has announced it is now the exclusive American supplier of the Aquacatch® speed through water log, manufactured by Chernikeeff Instruments Ltd. of England. The Aquacatch, McNab says, is a fully electronic speed through water and distance travelled indicator that has been proven simple to calibrate and operate in hundreds of installations throughout the world over the past 10 years.
The system is comprised of an electromagnetic, hull-mounted sensor (fixed and retractable models available) and an illuminated, analog indicator panel. Both digital and analog repeaters are available. A built-in, two-point calibration circuit is standard, and the manufacturer claims ± 1 % accuracy at the upper and lower calibration points, with ±5% accuracy overall. Present users of the instrument express satisfaction with its extreme reliability and minimal maintenance requirements.
McNab also supplies torque and shaft horsepower indicating systems, shaft thrustmeters, computerbased fuel efficiency monitors, oil in water monitors, salinity and chemical dosing monitors, and marine window wipers.
