New Weather Closures Adjust Automatically

Friday, August 27, 2010
Heavy doors and hatches require manpower to close in rough waters. A perfect solution for offshore vessels, workboats, tugs, crew's quarters and pump houses, the advanced Weather Closures from Delta "T" Systems can be remotely shut in the event of bad weather, violent seas and extreme wind or for security purposes. Available in custom sizes to fit any application, the versatile Weather Closures are constructed from marine-grade 6063 aluminum housing with anodized aluminum blades. The Weather Closures are also offered in a powder-coated finish to handle harsh marine conditions. Lightweight and energy efficient, they feature 24V DC or 110V AC electric actuators, which enable users to remotely open or close the weather closures from the helm or other required locations. Employing proven moisture-eliminator technology, the effective Weather Closures filter 97% of the water and salt from incoming air. The water then drains overboard through slots on a face drain. The Weather Closures can also be integrated into the fire suppression system. In the event of discharge, ventilation openings will automatically close, preventing the dilution of extinguishing agents. www.deltatsystems.com
