Miles from land, open ocean, bad weather. It’s a good feeling knowing you have Auto-Maskin’s “Marine Watch” system onboard watching every alarm and level, letting you take care of vessel business.
Our Marine Watch System is currently operating in the Bearing Sea on commercial fishing vessels, in harbors, on working tugs, and protecting craft while in port, moored or at anchor. Marine Watch is like an extra hand keeping a continuous watch on your alarms and levels, giving you peace of mind knowing its always on “Watch”.
The system is an extremely reliable, upgrade or replacement to your vessels Monitoring and Alarm System. Using an easy to use operator interface, displaying instant recognition of vessel status. Bringing alarm channels from multiple processes and multiple alarm panels into Marine Watch reduces risk, and gives the operator a clear instant view of vessel status day or night.
The 12.1″ colour touchscreen is a marine grade high-resolution panel. The system architecture is scalable and can be used in small to medium-sized installations. The I/O modules are in a separate cabinet and communicate to the operator panel(s) on a standard ethernet cable. One or several operator panels can be installed for remote monitoring and response.
Configuration is built right into the touch screen panel and access is protected with a PIN-code. No tools are required to create, adjust or modify alarms. Each channel can be configured with a button-text description up to three lines, delay time, inverted channel, etc.
Additionally, the use of signal groups makes it possible, by simple means – to group signals that naturally belong together.
A built-in buzzer will sound in the event of an alarm, and the corresponding rectangle flashes in red. The alarm is then acknowledged by pressing the flashing rectangle.
Fixed output channels provide indications for remote lights and buzzers for common alarm annunciation.
Marine Watch can be supplied in 12 VDC and 24 VDC versions, in I/O capacities ranging from 60 and up to 240 channels.
