Emergency telegraph

Process controller and IO

AutoChief®use processing controllers and IO modules

specifically designed for maritime use. These are installed

on the engine og in the Engine Control Room (ECR).

All  signals  to  and  from  the  units are  transmitted on dual

redundant CAN lines.

All nonessential sensors can be shared with the  K-Chief

alarm  and  monitoring system,  requiring  only  one

interface  to  the main engine. This principle drastically

reduces the installation and cabling cost.

Main features:

• Redundant field bus (CAN)

• Signal interfacing to sensors and actuators

• Alarm detection and process control

• Time stamping of alarms and events

• Design focused on EMC compatibility

• Local control cabinets and RPM pickups created for

engine room environment
