A New View In Bridge Design Introduced for the first time at the Ft. Lauderdale Boat Show and exhibited for the first time at Euro- port, Kelvin Hughes' new MANTA Integrated Bridge System offers vessel owners a unique new look in bridge design. Developed in consultation with one of the world's premier SuperYacht designers, Jon Ban- nenberg, the system uses flat screen technology with a space saving and ergonomic design. The system's "At Sea" mode entails the units five displays operating as multi- functional, interchangeable Radar, ECDIS, Conning Display, Collision Assessment and Avoidance System and a Alarm Monitoring and Control/Communications sys- tem. In "Harbor" mode, the displays can be used for gen- eral ship's monitoring and control functions, such as power management, bilge, fuel and water tank con- trol, fierce detection and air-conditioning.

Thrane & Thrane Expands Communications Capabilities Thrane & Thrane has developed a Global Marine Executive Office suite, combining mandatory Inmarsat GMDSS with a fully-fledged executive office communication suite including Internet, e-mail and fax. Based upon a software interface for- mulated by Thrane & Thrane engineers, the new product offers users with a vari- ety of different information technology and communications backgrounds for any type of information exchange — at any time from any place. Extending beyond the Captain's quar- ters, linking every workstation to the Inmarsat global communication net- work, the system also enables the con- nection of a DECT base station to serve cordless handsets on deck, or on quay- side when in port.

Malin 2000 also increases the speed, accuracy and reliability of determining the health of the main and generator diesel engines. Information can be rapidly gathered and downloaded to a desktop PC, while a Windows-based software program, known as the MK-5 generates a drawcard, indicator and derivative. The program also offers an immediate check on the fuel injection system, power output of each cylinder, fuel injection timing and engine balance trends. Laurin Maritime (America) is provid- ing MV Sunny Blossom with Malin 3000 MK-5 — a portable diesel engine analyzer with angular velocity sensor.

The Sea Switch Two offers a reliable solution for liquid level detection and control for cargo, ballast, and storage tanks, without any moving parts. The Sea Switch Two uses a fully static system that is based on the propagation of an acoustic wave into a metallic rod. A piezo-electric sensing element produces a wave along the rod. As the liquid reaches the sensing element the oscilla- tion stops and the alarm is activated. The Sea Switch Two sensor detects high, high- high, or low level in any liquid with an alarm output given by a dry contact or current loop change 6-18 mA. • Easy installation • Self-test built-in • Fully static system - no moving parts Call today for more information!
