Additional Information for Ship Clinometer Bubble Tube
A Ship Clinometer Bubble Tube is a navigational instrument used on ships to measure the angle of inclination or tilt of the ship's hull. It consists of a glass tube filled with a liquid, usually alcohol or oil, and a small air bubble. The tube is mounted on a base or frame and is calibrated with markings to indicate the angle of inclination.
The Ship Clinometer Bubble Tube is typically installed in the ship's bridge or navigation area, where it can be easily observed by the ship's crew. It is used to monitor the ship's stability and to ensure that it is not listing or leaning to one side. This information is crucial for maintaining the ship's balance and preventing accidents or damage.
The bubble in the tube moves in response to the ship's inclination, allowing the crew to quickly and accurately determine the ship's angle of tilt. By comparing this angle to the ship's maximum allowable inclination, the crew can take appropriate action to correct any imbalance or instability.
Ship Clinometer Bubble Tubes are an essential tool for navigational safety and are commonly found in the supply class Navigational Instruments within the supply group Instruments And Laboratory Equipment.
