CTD doors
CTD door are shell doors used to open the Scientific hangar on scientific research vessels.
They can be opening outside or inside, single opening or double opening with independent upper door for the CTD crane, custom designed based on CTD Crane.
In the closed position, they are recessed into the vessel flush and aligned with the surrounding shell plate.

Door signals are sent to wheelhouse with dry contacts and can be interlocked with CTD Crane.
Each side door is supplied with a Local Maneuver Cabinet, fitted with all the necessary controls for door opening/closing, wedge locking/unlocking and HPP start/stop.
