HEAVE MOTION COMPENSATORS
Using proven Hydrotrole hydraulic accumulator and cylinder
technology and expertise the HYDROCOMP series of heave wave
motion compensators provide the ultimate in safety reliability
and performance. The unique co-axial construction - the
accumulator actually surrounds the hydraulic ram - not only
makes this the most rugged unit on the market, it also saves on
deck space and weight. Hermetically sealed "dead" side of
cylinder, retaining a slight positive Nitrogen pressure,
prevents corrosive atmosphere being sucked in every stroke - a
major problem with conventional systems. Elimination of
hydraulic piping, double piston seals plus PTFE linear bearings
between all wearing surfaces ensures maximum reliability and
minimum down time.
RISER TENSIONER
Minimum sheave diameters are 30 x rope O.D.; all sheaves run on
double taper roller bearings. NOTE :- HYDROCOMP linear
compensators are now supplied with LlMISLIP over travel friction
grip deck clamps and INDACC remote position indicators.

MOORING SYSTEM
Based on either axial or co·axial linear accumulator layouts
mooring snubbers for tensioning loads up to 150 tons per single
cable with stroke (line take up) capacitors up to 30 feet.
Utilising minimum of deck space tensioners may be mounted
vertically or horizontally. Structural integrity not less than
maximum load x 3. |
