The 215 provides built-in hydraulic balance, insuring use throughout the full pressure range of ANSI pumps. It can also be used for out- side mounting with internal pressure. The Type 215 seal is available in sizes from 1 inch to 3 inches, covering all ANSI pump require- ments.

As the crane bases are located close to the ship's port rail, it is possible to position the cranes out- board of the hull, with correspond- ing shorter working radius.
