C. Plath Offers Literature On NAVIGLOBE Satellite Navigation Receiver C. Plath of Hamburg, West Ger- many, a division of Litton Indus- tries, Inc., is offering literature on NAVIGLOBE, the Global Position- ing System (GPS) satellite naviga- tion receiver that was the center of interest at their stand during this year's International Ship, Machin- ery and Marine Technology Exhibi- tion in Hamburg. The informative literature ex- plains what the Global Positioning System is, how it works, and how GPS user equipment processes pseudorange measurements and satellite positions to estimate three- dimensional user position and time. Features and performance of the NAVIGLOBE are discussed and technical data is listed, such as navi- gation signal, dynamic capability, interference immunity, reaction time, accuracy, interfaces, dimen- sions, power requirements, etc. The publications points out that the main advantage of the NAVI- GLOBE, which was developed with- in the Litton Group by C. Plath in cooperation with a sister company, is its layout for simple operation: without knowledge of the operator's position, time special chart or cali- bration, NAVIGLOBE will indicate continuously its position with high- est accuracy, shortly after switching. Photos of the NAVIGLOBE control display unit and receiver processor unit are included.

To meet this complex problem Walter Kidde has developed the Marine Smoke Detection System, based upon a continuous monitoring of air within multiple zones of the ship to detect the presence of smoke, and to provide early warning of a potential fire problem. Air sam- ples are continuously drawn from each fire zone and are inspected by a directed light beam. The presence of smoke in the viewing path of the light source causes the light to scat- ter and be seen by the photocell. Once the presence of smoke is de- tected in any zone, the appropriate annunciation actions occur to pro- vide audible and visual warning of an impending danger. Essentially, the system is com- prised of three principal compo- nents: a Smoke Detection cabinet; a separate Suction Fan Blower Cabi- net; and a Repeater Panel. The sys- tem features ease of installation, individual alarm systems, indepen- dent light detectors, visual detec- tion, olfactory detection, automatic power protection, and reserve blow- er control.

According to Alexan- der Industries president Roy Per- rin, Imperial is one of the largest manufacturers of survival suits in the U.S. "We are especially pleased to now offer our customers the com- plete line of Imperial survival and underwater diving suits," he said. Hypothermia is a very real danger on offshore platforms and in aban- don-ship emergencies in cold water conditions. More than 200 people have documented their being saved from the killing effects of hypother- mia by the Imperial suit. Through- out the world, more than 50,000 of the suits are in use. The Imperial survival suit com- bines excellent flotation protection against drowning with superior in- sulation protection against hypo- thermia. In a water temperature of 32.5 F, an unprotected person would survive only 15 minutes or less; with an Imperial Suit, the survival time increases to 18 hours or more. The one-piece suit can be donned over the bulkiest clothing in less than 60 seconds.

Available in both 12-volt and 120- volt models, these fixtures can be mounted on masts or cabin bulk- heads to illuminate deck areas and trawling nets. The high-pressure so- dium (HPS) lights are designed to provide up to five times the light per watt as quartz lights. The new line includes models ranging from 35 to 150 watts, all with integral ballasts, thus eliminating the extra wiring and mounting involved with lights that require separate ballasts. The fixtures are made of copper- free marine aluminum to resist salt water corrosion and offer long lamp life. HPS lamps can last up to 24,000 hours.
