Winches & Handling Systems

The Hytek Cable Counter is a reliable and accurate system for measuring the length of cable or umbilical passing over the snatch-block sheave wheel. Counts up to 9999 meters in 1 metre increments.

T-count is a reliable and accurate system for measuring the length of cable passing over a snatchblock.

Designed to overcome the unreliability of systems using a deck lead, a radio link is used to display the count on an IBMT compatible PC, or the optional hand-held receiver.

This innovative approach allows the operator more confidence when access in bad weather conditions prevents maintenance or repair at sea.
