Ultrasound

HASYTEC proves Hull Antifouling!

HASYTEC DBP is the result of 22 years electro technical marine experience and prevents biofilm which is the initial basis of all fouling and marine growth. It is developed to combat fouling and growth on every liquid carrying surface.

HASYTEC DBP is currently the only system on the market which enables 8 transducers emitting ultrasound at the same time which increases the effect and the covered areas enormously.

ABOUT

HISTORY

The history of the HASYTEC Group started in 1994 when Bernd Schlünzen founded an electrical engineering company.

Within the framework of various expansion in 2016, the company changed its name to the new brand HASYTEC in order to become more effective internationally.

Also 2016 development ultrasound started with HASYTEC Electronics GmbH. This company is responsible for the development, production and marketing of ultrasound systems for the prevention of biological fouling.

All in all, HASYTEC combines extensive knowledge of electrical engineering and ultrasound applications as well as PCB repairs.

Today with a team of 19 employees and partners and a growing distributor network, as a member of HASYTEC Group, we are one of the world's leading companies, whose goal is to protect, preserve and improve the environment in the long term in combination of providing our customers with real cost benefits.

BIOLOGICAL FOULING

Biofilm

Biofilm consists of micro-organisms in which cells are sticking to each other. These micro-organisms are able to multiply under favorable conditions and as a result will form biofilm. This biofilm is the attachment and food base for every further fouling and growth as algae, barnacles or shells.

Consequences

Fouling as the result of biofilm causes a lot of issues like corrosion, formation of micro-organisms and deterioration of heat transfer as well as cross-section reduction and blockages. All these issues lead to the fact that chemicals or other environmental unfriendly procedures are required. In addition to the environmental effect all these issues are causing higher costs of maintenance and will lead to higher operational costs as well as to increased total costs of ownership in the shipping industry.

Targets

The removal of biofilm is really difficult since it has the ability to protects itself. In addition, if remaining parts of biofilm are not completely removed, subsequently this will lead to an accelerated regrowth of micro-organisms. Therefore biological fouling prevention is a major target in the pre-treatment process. It will directly save costs and will contribute to an environmental friendly and sustainable solution.

Major topics

Attachment prevention of micro-organisms
Biofilm removal and prevention
Avoiding attachment of particles as lime or rust
Preventing the development of biofilm based bacteria
Destruction of all unicellular organisms as, e.g. algae, by breaking their membrane-bound organelles
Avoiding biocorrosion

Working Principle

Plate Heat Exchanger

Principle of Dynamic Biofilm Protection

Box Cooler

The uniqueness of HASYTEC Dynamic Biofilm Protection is the combination between the “low power” consuming transducers and the intelligent software, which results in the transducers to be directed highly focussed and controlled. HASYTEC DBP runs a very precisely tuned program of several frequencies and power consumptions.

The transducers need to be glued with special industrial glue onto the requested applications. The metal transports the ultrasonic signals into the liquid (mostly water) and as a consequence it will diffuse completely through the medium (see pictures). These diffused ultrasonic waves will prevent the biofilm and will even remove it in early stages. Consequently HASYTEC DBP prevents fouling, marine growth, bacteria, clogging and blockage.

Due to the fact that the emitted ultrasound is running on several different frequencies which only avoid biofilm and destroy unicellular organisms, it doesn't harm the environment as fishes, dolphins, whales or human beings.

The system needs a constant power supply which has to be provided 24/7. It consumes max 20 Watt per transducer.

HASYTEC DBP doesn't require any maintenance.

Due to the fact that HASYTEC DBP is a preventive system it's necessary to start with a clean surface.

Installation of HASYTEC DBP is very easy. There is no need for the vessel to go to dry dock. The installation can be realised at any given time. Only hull protection installations require dry dock conditions to reach the ballast water tanks, if applicable.
