Accurate ballast water measurement is essential for correct draft survey calculations. Traditional manual methods using tape measures are time-consuming and prone to reading errors. GOTEC's new generation ballast water level meter addresses these challenges head-on.

The portable smart meter features ±5mm precision sensing, one-click operation, and automatic data storage with capacity for over 10,000 records. Its ergonomic design allows surveyors to work efficiently across multiple ballast tanks.

Field-Proven Performance

In field tests across major Chinese ports, the device reduced per-tank measurement time by 60% while improving measurement consistency. The built-in data logging eliminates manual transcription errors and provides a complete audit trail for each survey.

The meter integrates seamlessly with GOTEC's cloud platform, allowing real-time data upload and remote verification by senior surveyors when needed.
