great ships of 2003 December 2003 25 Smart Radar Level Sensor with Generic RS485 Output The first flat array antenna for liquid tank gauging. This software driven array allows for each sensor to remotely configure itself for the type of product as well as the structural characteristics within each tank. It is completely self-diagnostic and is factory calibrated using a laser interferometer to .1mm. It is designed for the harshest environments and can be provided in a high temperature version to 385°F. It is intrinsically safe with Class 1, Div. 1, Group D & C approvals. As a smart sensor, all processing calculations and software are resident in the device itself, only a high level generic data output, i.e., RS485 (or others on request) is sent to the cargo control area. Options: • Multiple alarm set-points • Temperature • PV Pressure • I.G. Pressure • Tank Management Software • Automated draft and trim Call today for more information! 732.382.4344 732.388.5111 fax emsmarcon@aol.com e-mail http://www.emsmarcon.com on Reader Service Card ELECTRONIC MARINE SYSTEMS, INC. 800 Ferndale Place Rabway, NJ 07065 "Now with leak detection Aldt'baran Star Main Particulars Ship Name Aldebaran Star Ship Type Aframax Product Carrier Ship Owner Vela International Marine Limited Ship Builder Daewoo Shipbuilding & Marine Engineering Co.Ltd.
