HERMetic DIP Type 2 GT
Maintaining cargo tank integrity is essential for safe tanker operations. Reliable tank bottom verification helps prevent contamination, improve efficiency, and support marine safety compliance.It also enables operators to detect water, sludge, and sediment buildup before these conditions affect cargo quality or vessel performance. By carrying out accurate inspections within a controlled and closed environment, marine operators can reduce operational risks, protect personnel, and maintain higher standards of safety and environmental responsibility.
The HERMetic DIP Type 2 GT is a gas-tight dipping device for closed tank bottom inspection, sludge detection, water interface measurement, and dryness checks without opening the tank atmosphere.
SWIFT MARINE TECH SERVICES PTE LTD supplies the HERMetic DIP Type 2 GT to customers across Singapore, the Asia-Pacific region, and worldwide, delivering trusted marine inspection solutions with professional support.
Product Overview
The HERMetic DIP Type 2 GT is a portable closed gauging instrument specifically developed for tank bottom verification in hazardous marine and petroleum environments. The equipment enables operators to inspect tank bottoms while preserving the integrity of the closed tank atmosphere, significantly reducing exposure to hazardous cargo vapors.
Designed for demanding marine applications, the system delivers reliable performance during routine cargo inspections, cargo surveys, post-cleaning verification, and tank readiness assessments. Its precision measuring mechanism and rugged marine-grade construction ensure dependable operation in harsh offshore and tanker environments.
The equipment is commonly used to identify:
