ULTRASONIC ANTIFOULING ANNOUNCES THE LAUNCH OF ULTRA SOLAR
On Show at the 2010 London Boat Show, Stand N031D
Ultra Solar is a new stand-alone system which complements the existing Ultra range. It is designed to give boatowners without access to a shore power supply the opportunity to benefit from having an Ultra system fitted to their boat - something which was not previously possible.
The solar controller has been specially designed to control the power between solar panels, battery and the Ultrasonic Antifouling system.
The intelligent unit keeps your battery in good health and provides the Ultrasonic system with the correct amount of electrical power. According to the voltage of your battery the controller will adjust the charge current and decide if it needs to supply the electrical loads.
Commenting on the launch, Managing Director, David Sothcott said, "Ultra Solar came about as a result of feedback from boatowners who wanted to install the original Ultra product but were unable to due to lack of a suitable power supply. We have responded to that demand, and are excited that we can now offer a solution that makes the system available to all."
Ultrasonic Antifouling has seen a massive rise in demand for its environmentally-friendly system, which uses high frequency, low power sound waves to destroy algae and therefore prevent weed and barnacle growth.
The company currently offer four easy to install models - the Ultra 10 (AC or DC) and the new Ultra 10 dual, for boats up to 10m, and the Ultra 20 (AC or DC) and the new Ultra 20 dual for boats up to 20m. Each system consists of a control box and either one or two transducers which are bonded to the inside of the boat's hull.
The system covers all of the hull and underwater gear, dealing with the problem at its source and destroying the algae to allow optimum speeds and reduce fuel costs by minimising drag. Best of all, it does away with the annual preparation and painting of a boat's bottom.
The latest addition to the Ultrasonic Antifouling range, the Ultra Solar, is available on its own or as a package with either the Ultra 10 or Ultra 20.
