The cable and pipe transit management software Roxtec Transit Operate™ has been certified for Innovation Endorsement for Product and Solution by the ship classification society Class-NK, Nippon Kaiji Kyokai. The certificate states that the product “supports the installation and maintenance of mechanical cable and pipe seals of transits in critical marine environments, increasing the safety onboard ships” and that it “supports saving labor hours and decreasing costs”. 

“We are satisfied by this official and important recognition from Class-NK,” says Mats Åhman, Head of Digital Solutions at multi-cable and pipe transit provider Roxtec. “We have invented and developed this digital management system to help the marine industry take complete control of, document and keep track of all transits through the entire lifecycle of their ships and vessels.”

Simplifies compliance with class requirements

Roxtec Transit Operate™ is ideal for ensuring compliance with the updated requirements on watertight cable transits from IACS, the International Association of Classification Societies. The regulations require that ship owners and operators maintain a cable transit seal systems register.

Roxtec Transit Operate™ is created by Roxtec sealing experts to make it easy to keep all relevant information on each transit installation accessible and up to date. It provides instant information on the transit status and enables team members and suppliers to cooperate in an efficient way.

Manage transits online to secure quality over time

It is possible to share the documentation with contractors and inspectors from classification societies, and to verify the status after changes or upgrades throughout the lifecycle of the asset.

“All data are synchronized into one perfectly organized register. This digital system enables seamless international collaboration and guarantees a very high safety level,” says Mats Åhman.
