How It Works
Hull Protection
Fitting Ultraguard to your vessel’s hull stops biofouling sticking to the hull and helps maintain your vessel’s speed and fuel consumption at optimum levels.
1.
Biofouling Larvae and spores are suspended in the water column waiting for a surface such as a hull to attach to.
2.
Ultraguard Transducers are bonded to the inside of the hull. They resonate and those vibrations are transferred to the wetted surface of the hull.
3.
These vibrations prevent the biofouling larvae and spores from being able to attach themselves to the protected surface.
4.
Keeping your hull clean and clear of biofouling, maintaining speed and efficiency.
Sea Water Systems
Fitting Ultraguard to your vessel’s hull stops biofouling sticking to the hull and helps maintain your vessel’s speed and fuel consumption at optimum levels.
Biofouling in a seawater system causes over heating and expensive machinery damage.
Ultraguard can protect your vessel's seatwater system and stop biofouling from damaging it.

After six months operation with Ultraguard protection.
Box Cooler Protection
Box coolers are proving to be an ever more popular choice for ship designers and ship owners. They give efficient cooling without taking up valuable internal space in the machiner spaces. However, the traditional copper ICAF anode style biofouling is expensive, environmentally damaging and not always effective in combatting marine growth. Ultraguard is now the best biofouling solution for box coolers.
1.
Box coolers are very succeptible to biofouling. Traditional methods such as coppper ICAF anodres are not very effective at combatting this.
