While Shipsonic has monitored very carefully on all its installations, even some cases that have been running for more than 10 years, it never observed any metal fatigue.

There are so many advantages to box-coolers, how can the disadvantages make them unattractive to some? Th


Test bench for all types of antifouling
Together with Kelvion, Shipsonic has developed test equipment that can measure the actual capacity of a cooler. It measures not only the inlet and outlet temperature of the coolant, but also the speed at which the fluid flows through the coolers.
