Easy TankTM – a cost-efficient alternative to

the Sea Valve and traditional tanks, creating
possibilities for installations in very tight spa-
ces. Approved by DNV and considered a clo-
sed-ended installation. Thus, it does not requi-
re any watertight compartment.

Built on experience. Thousands of instal-

lations on vessels all around the world, with
decades of accumulated knowledge and ex-
perience incorporated into the design, guaran-
tees a reliable system with accurate measure-
ments and high maintainability.

Highly
accurate speed
measurements
through our

technology.
SAL Speed Logs use high-frequency sound
waves and acoustic correlation to calculate
speed. This measurement technique is very
robust and insensitive to interference, allowing
for reliable integration with other systems on
board that need accurate STW and SOG, like
radar, auto-pilot, positioning systems and sys-
tems for fuel optimization.

The acoustic correlation technology has ad-

vantages compared to other solutions on the
market. One of the most important advanta-
ges is that it is independent of water tempe-
rature and salinity. This means that our speed
logs need less calibration and will measure
correctly regardless of where in the world the
vessels operate.

Capabilities
SAL T200 is a Dual Axis Speed Log and Dock-
ing Log designed for vessels above 50 000 GT
and those requiring both SOG and STW func-
tionality.
Since the all-in-one transducer is capable of
both water and bottom tracking, SAL T200
requires only one hull penetration and only
one transducer cable to be pulled, making
both installation and maintenance quick and
cost-efficient.
SAL T200 is a very small, efficient system with
few parts, built on modules with great capa-
bilities. It can easily be expanded with more
displays and with docking log functionality (by
simply adding a gyro signal).
Standards
The system fulfills all necessary regulations,
test and performance standards:
