Revolutionary product protects vessels from electrolysis
Pearson Electrical • Dec 10, 2020

Any owner of a sea-going vessel will know about the potential perils of metal corrosion and the various means of keeping it at bay, but we have some excellent news for such owners wishing to prevent electrolysis – we are now the UK’s only approved installer for the revolutionary SeaBis system! 


Designed by international surveyor Glen Bishop, who has racked up more than 55 years of experience and knowledge in corrosion prevention, including nine years at sea, this game-changing product is working wonders around the world. 


Unique device 


Electrolysis can be hugely damaging. If electric currents leave the boat as tiny earth leakages then enter the hull, engine or any metal parts, the steel will rot. The unobtrusive 8inch by 4inch SeaBis unit is a unique device that detects and warns of stray electric currents (which are the root cause of all electrolysis) allowing the owner – or electrical engineering experts such as the Pearson team – to diagnose and repair any faults before the hull or engine is affected. 


Mark Pearson, Managing Director of Pearson Electrical, said: “SeaBis is an absolutely amazing product, it’s the only system around capable of detecting the stray currents which can cause electrolysis. 


“We are thrilled to be approved as SeaBis installers. Having used it ourselves to diagnose problems we know how incredibly effective it is, and how quick and simple it is to use. We literally liked it so much we contacted Glen and asked if we could sell and install it. He said yes, so now we are in a position to bring this fantastic technology to boat owners across the UK.” 


Pearson Electrical is the only company in the UK with rights to install SeaBis. Vessel owners are welcome to purchase their own SeaBis unit from Pearson Electrical so they in effect have a constant early warning system on board, or alternatively they may wish to hire a unit from Pearson on an ad hoc basis. 


Mark added: “We’re expecting SeaBis to be a very popular product and will ensure we always have some in stock so that we’re able to install a unit and conduct a diagnosis very quickly. 


“The value for money this offers boat owners is superb. The costs of repairing a corroded vessel are significant, plus there’s the impact of downtime while the vessel is out of action. For just a few hundred pounds, you can practically eliminate these risks.” 

 

Significant savings 


SeaBis designer Glen Bishop, who lives in Australia, said: “Ninety-seven per cent of marine corrosion is caused by electrolysis, and stray current is always the cause. SeaBis offers a solution to identify, understand, then prevent the cause permanently, saving you thousands of pounds. 


“I was pleased to hear from Mark at Pearson about the success he’d had using SeaBis, and even more delighted to appoint Pearson Electrical as an approved installer. I know the company works to extremely high standards and has a reputation for excellent customer service, so SeaBis is in safe and very capable hands with Mark and his team.” 


SeaBis is guaranteed for eight years with a design life of 20 years.
