MOBILIS BC
1241/1242
The BC1241 and 1242 are medium
buoyancy tail tube units with 1.24 metre diameter hull. These buoys are
generally used in near shore applications where high visibility is a
major requirement. The high focal height of this small diameter buoy is
achieved by utilizing a short tail tube assembly. Adjustable ballast
weights provide excellent anti heel characteristics and help keep these
buoys upright even in severe weather conditions. The BC1241/1242 buoys
are constructed around a central galvanized steel tube structure with
rotationally moulded medium density polyethylene floats and common day
mark assemblies.
The BC1241
is fitted with a conical shaped float and the BC1242 is fitted with a
cylindrical shaped float.
This modular design
allows for a range of common parts that reduce maintenance, inspection,
and replacement costs.
The result is a much
lighter, easier to handle buoy that can be maintained with smaller
service vessels. The
buoy design allows it to lay on its side when being maintained on the
deck of a service vessel. The 1241/1242 buoys are available as Lateral,
Cardinal or Special Mark and will accept self contained solar lantern
configurations.
