international and domestic applica- tions. MCS coolers reportedly provide a cost-effective cooling of process flu- ids in laser, hydraulic, medical, sci- entific and industrial applications. The MCS 10 and MCS20 models are available in 16 different configu- rations. Options include a choice of heat exchanger material and capac- ity, pump construction, electrical system interface, and rack-mount- able or stand-alone chassis. In addi- tion, each MCS provides an easy-to- read front panel fluid level indica- tor, an accessible top mounted res- ervoir port, a rugged all-welded steel frame, convenient built-in handles for easy transportation, and heavy duty vibration isolation mounting feet.

Although CFC record keeping is mandated by federal law, many marine-related businesses are in need of assistance for establishing a formal refrigerant management program to avoid serious fines and future equipment downtime. According to Peregrine, failure to comply with federal CFC edicts could result in fines of $25,000 per day and even criminal prosecution. CFCs are scheduled to be phased out of production by the end of the year. Peregrine will review existing re- frigerant management plans as well as specific in-house procedures to assure the readiness of passing an EPA/CFC inspection. CFC aware- ness training for both technical and non-technical employees for the han- dling of refrigerants can be con- ducted, and refrigerant management software is available.

SIMPLICITY • FLEXIBILITY • ECONOMY The ROX SYSTEM takes the lead in transit technology by offering complete adaptability to any cable diameter. The multi-diameter modules (MDMs) offer a simple peel away system of custom sizing. Where other systems use nearly 80 modules, the ROX SYSTEM needs only 6 to accommo- date your cable size requirements. The ROX SYSTEM is a mechanical sealing system designed to protect cable and pipe transits against hazards induced by fire, smoke, gas, water and RFI/EMP. The ROX SYSTEM, having been extensively tested, stands up to even the toughest demands. The ROX SYSTEM has approvals from the U.S. Coast Guard, ABS, U.S. Navy, and Underwriter Laboratories. It has also been tested and approved as intermixable with MCT and can be installed successfully within the same frame penetra- tion. Because the modules, stayplates and compression systems are compatible, you can begin using the ROX SYSTEM immediately.
