Product catalog summary
Overview
The PMB2400RM is a 2.4m navigation buoy designed for ease of transportation and installation. It is constructed using rotationally moulded polyethylene, making it lighter and more cost-effective than steel alternatives. The buoy is designed to withstand extreme conditions and maintain stability in rough seas, thanks to its galvanized steel core and flat base design.

Key Features
  • Two-piece float section
  • Excellent stability and low maintenance
  • Modular system adaptable to a wide range of navigation lights
  • Sections can be colored to meet IALA specifications

Optional Features
  • Mould in Graphics
  • Day marks
  • Racon and Monitoring Systems (AIS, GSM, GPS)
  • Solar panels and batteries

Suggested Mooring
The brochure provides detailed mooring specifications based on current speed and water depth, with chain length and size recommendations. It also specifies sinker weights for concrete and cast iron.

PMB2400RM-1

OVERVIEW The PMB2400 is an outstanding intermediate buoy suitable for near shore/offshore locations. Consisting of 4-piece virgin MDPE, UV stable float sections filled with closed cell, water resistant polyurethane foam and built around an integral steel core incorporating both 2 x lifting and mooring eyes for optimum strength and reliability. The Modular superstructure is manufactured from 'twin skin' design virgin, UV stabilized MDPE offering strength and lightweight characteristics. the 'flat' base of the buoy makes it easy to handle and store both on land and on deck prior to installation and the modular, flexible design is adaptable to a wide range of Navigation lights, Day/Top marks, solar panels, AIS, Racon and weather/ocean monitoring systems. The standard range is augmented by bespoke products meeting your exact specifications or specialist needs. The flat base design of all products in the range ensures buoys stay upright in low-tide situations, are easily stored on vessel deck prior to installation and the galvanized steel core ensures absolute stability in rough seas and product integrity. The buoys are built to last in extreme conditions. Even if the skin is punctured, the close cell foam filled polyethylene hull sections negate water absorption and keep it fully operational. This makes the range especially good for housing and protecting technical equipment such as monitoring technology. The range has been designed for ease of installation and transportation. They can be shipped in sections and assembled or dissembled quickly on-site. The design of our Rotationally Moulded Polyethylene Buoys is meant to give customers the best of both worlds. They are lighter than steel, provide excellent performance, longevity, and cost less. Maintenance is easy and a lower overall cost and a wide range of competitively priced accessories are available. OPTIONAL FEATURES Two piece float section Outstanding mid-range buoy Excellent stability Does not require painting Solar panels, Batteries Modular system Wide range of navigation lights accepted Each section can be colored to suit IALA specifications
