Aquaguard
The marine industry is placing increasing emphasis on improving crew safety and working conditions, driven in part by regulations such as MLC 2006. Manual handling of water treatment chemicals remains a significant onboard risk, exposing crew to unnecessary hazards. By adopting solutions that minimise or eliminate manual handling, operators can enhance safety, improve dosing accuracy, and protect critical equipment.
There is an increasing focus in the marine industry to improve crew safety and working conditions. This is driven by rules and regulations such as MLC 2006. On board ship, the majority of our water treatment chemicals are handled manually, which poses a risk to the crew. Solutions to reduce or eliminate chemical handling will provide improvements to crew safety and give the additional benefit of improving the surety of chemical application and the protection of your valuable equipment.
Aquaguard: Various Applications
Marine Boilers
Aquaguard BW is designed for the application and control of chemical treatment programmes for steam boiler systems. The Aquaguard BW system is configured to apply boiler treatment chemicals in proportion to boiler feed water flow. Boiler treatment chemicals are housed in protective bunds and dosed direct from the drum. This reduces the need for chemical handling and provides an improvement to health and safety and saves on manpower.
Features:
- Proportional dosing of boiler treatment chemicals
- Dosage is delivered direct from the drum
- Low level alarms
- Bunded drum enclosures
- Rugged stainless steel construction
Benefits:
- Surety of application and optimised system protection
- Reduced chemical handling and improved health and safety
- Simple indication of drum replacement
- Spill capture
- Suitable for the marine environment

Engine Cooling Water
Aquaguard CW is designed for the application and control of closed system corrosion inhibitors used to protect engine cooling systems. The conductivity of the engine cooling water is directly proportional to the level of corrosion inhibitor. The Aquaguard CW system will continuously monitor the conductivity of the engine cooling water and automatically apply inhibitor to control at the advised set point. The corrosion inhibitor is housed in a protective bund and dosed direct from the drum. This reduces the need for chemical handling and provides an improvement to health and safety and saves on manpower.
Features:
- Continous monitoring and application of corrosion inhibitor
- Dosage is delivered direct from the drum
- Low level alarms
- Bunded drum enclosure
- Rugged stainless steel construction
Benefits:
- Surety of application and optimised system protection
- Reduced chemical handling and improved health and safety
- Simple indication of drum replacement
- Spill capture
- Suitable for the marine environment
