Recently, we have a join ship-board survey with Shenzhen Da Chan District Maritime Safety Administration (MSA) and Shenzhen Academy of Metrology & Quality Inspection (SMQ) at Shenzhen Chi Wan Container Terminal.

SMQ is hired to conduct on-site sampling and detailed laboratory analysis according to IMO D-2 standard. They have to take the samples back to their lab and wait for one week to get the report. Da Cha MSA used our ET1302 Ballast Water Checker to get an immediate screening results within 5 minutes.
