Hempel To Display Environ Protection Products At Upcoming Shows The Hempel Group, which has grown from a single production unit in Copenhagen in 1915 to become one of today's largest suppliers of marine coatings, will be present i both NEVA '93 and the Tanker I dustry Convention. At NEVA '93, the Hempel exhil will feature two products which she how technology is capable of provi ing protection coupled with em ronmental care. Hempadur 4515, a two-comp nent polyamine-cured epoxy pc sesses inherent toughness, low w ter permeability and exceptional a hesive properties to marginally pi pared surfaces. In addition, the high-volume s ids provide not only lower volat organic content (VOC) emissioi but also economy, through increas square foot coverage. A low-temperature curing va ety, Hempadur L.T.C. 4514 is a available, providing an applicati temperature window down to mir 10- to 15-degrees Fahrenheit. Combic 7199 TinFree is repc edly the world's first tin-free ar fouling capable of being specified drydocking intervals of up to f years. Some of the product's repor advantages include: low square f cost, tin-free roughness control, ] polishing rate, low dry film thi ness and extended predictable p formance. At the Tanker Industry Conv tion in London, the Hempel exh will concentrate on the protect requirements of this particular i tion of the marine business. Ballast spaces, one of today's issues, is a challenge met with Hempadur L.T.C. 4514 and 4 selections. In addition, Hempel will in duce the first Windows-based c puterized resistance informal system for users of Hempel's Ci Barrier zinc silicate, phenolic epoxy tank coatings. The system is a further deve ment of Hempel's Cargo Protec Guide.

The NUCLEUS Color ARPA combines innovative target tracking/plotting and integrated data acquisi- tion capabilities with speed, accuracy, screen defini- tion, ease of operation, and highest reliability. To overcome rows of confusing buttons and controls, this economically designed, color ARPA utilizes a simple tracker ball and three push buttons for all operations, making it one of the fastest, most user- friendly navigational radars on the market today. Functions are selected by simply clicking a but- ton after moving the pointer with the tracker ball through the easy-to-use, on-screen menus. The high definition display provides a superior color radar picture with very sharp target contrast. The data displays clearly show operating functions, warn- ings, target information, and integrated own-ship navigational data. The NUCLEUS Series offers five choices of dis- plays, NUCLEUS 6000 A (ARPA), 6000 T (true motion) and 6000 R (relative motion) Color Radars with 26 inch display; and NUCLEUS 5000 T (true motion) and 5000 R (relative motion) Color Radars with 20 inch display. NUCLEUS features powerful X-Band and S-Band transmitters in different configurations. the new definition of modern radar!
