 Strainstall have received an order for 48 load measuring pins, together with intrinsically safe amplifiers, zener barriers and power supply from a Japanese power generation company. The load pins will be fitted to Japanese domestically manufactured quick release hooks, and the information they provide incorporated into an integrated berth management system. This will provide the operators with clear displays of the real-time tensions in the mooring lines, an alarm facility in the event that these exceed safety limits and data recording for historic and trend information. The order follows on from over 40 previous projects in Japan, where Strainstall are, to date, the only approved non-Japanese supplier of these products.
