Auto-Maskin is introducing the latest addition to the ProConnect family, providing Scania engine owners with a convenient "Plug and Play" control panel kit with enhanced control for a range of Scania engines.
Wanting more information from the engine, the owner of the fishing vessel "STORMHAV" acquired the Auto-Maskin ProConnect with an additional RP 480i Remote Panel with a 12" touchscreen panel and installed it himself.
The new RP 480i Remote Panel was recently commissioned in a high-speed vessel set for South Korea, monitoring and controlling four drivelines with amazing power output. The commissioning took place at the Incat shipyard in Tasmania, Hobart, an island south of Melbourne in Australia. This quiet island with historical districts, narrow lanes, and colonial-era cottages is the backdrop for this wicked high-speed ferry build.
Kits for super easy and fast installation consisting of a pre-configured DCU 210E Engine Controller, a connection harness with all necessary and some optional connectors, and a key switch. These kits are perfect for installation of the engine controller in the engine room or in the wheelhouse.
Christian Radich is a landmark in Oslo when in harbour, and not many can measure themselves against her, neither in size, beauty nor qualities. But now she needed a replacement part, and we were happy to be able to help this damsel in distress. Close to 40 years ago, an over-speed safety relay from Auto-Maskin was installed in this great sailing ship. It has been performing faithfully through all these decades, but at last, it gave in and Auto-Maskin was contacted for a replacement. The SDU 404 Safety Unit was a perfect choice and was installed on short notice so that the great ship could continue its service as a training ship for aspiring sailors.
We are proud to be involved in protecting D/S Hestmanden, a steamship from 1911 that has been made into the sailing Norwegian War Sailor Museum. It has a Marine Watch LT-ONE Alarm Panel installed to alert the crew of problems that may develop into a critical situation. You can see D/S Hestmanden in a very important role in Norways most expensive movie production to date, “Krigsseileren” (“War Sailor”), a drama about the sailors of the Norwegian merchant fleet during World War II.

The Bergen-based aquaculture company Hordafor with their vessel “Hordafor VI” has recently been through an upgrade which also includes retro-fitting a new Alarm Management System. “Hordafor VI” is an ensilage carrier and operates on a strict schedule. With factors such as predictability, safety and ease, they chose Marine Watch from Auto-Maskin AS Norway.
Cost-savings is getting more and more important in today's marine market. With the NEW PLC-functionality added to the Marine Pro-series engine controllers, this is now easier than ever. The new feature allows for creating integrated automation logic, in a quick and easy way.
Just plug one end of the harness into the ECM and the other end into the DCU 210E Engine Controller. Add 12 or 24V power to the labeled leads, upload the engine configuration and you're finished. Simple! That’s how easy it is to connect a DCU 210E Engine Controller to a Cummins X15 engine.
Cybersecurity is high on the agenda as the world cyber threats are becoming increasingly more challenging to handle. Diesel engines for propulsion and power generation are more critical than ever as vessel complexity increases and precise manoeuvrability is of the essence. Learn more about how our products are protected and how we manage this in the Marine Pro 200 and 400 series diesel engine controllers.
