Integrated Automation System (IAS)
Integrated Automation System (IAS)
An Integrated Automation System replaces separate alarm, control and power-management panels with one network and shared database, so a single sensor reading feeds alarm, trending and remote-control logic at once — the reason a network fault, not a sensor fault, is now the most disruptive failure mode in the engine room.

Alarm Monitoring & Control System (AMCS)
Alarm Monitoring & Control System (AMCS)
An AMCS collects sensor signals from engines, boilers, pumps and tanks into a central logic that raises alarms, logs trends and can start standby equipment automatically, turning the engine room into a space that can legally run unmanned for set periods rather than under continuous watch.

Alarm Monitoring System
Alarm Monitoring System
An alarm monitoring system continuously scans engine room sensors against set limits and raises audible and visual alarms the moment a reading goes out of range, forming the backbone that lets class grant unmanned machinery space notation instead of requiring a permanent watchkeeper.

Power Management System (PMS)
Power Management System (PMS)
A power management system decides, faster than a duty engineer can react, when to start a standby generator, when to shed load, and in what order to trip non-essential consumers before a blackout its logic, not the generators themselves, is what keeps the switchboard alive through a sudden load step.

Safety System (ESD/F&G)
Safety System (ESD/F&G)
An ESD and fire and gas system exists to act faster and more consistently than a watchkeeper: it shuts down fuel and ventilation and raises alarms the moment a sensor crosses a set threshold, before a human could reach the same conclusion.

DP System
DP System
A Dynamic Positioning system holds a vessel's position and heading by continuously computing thruster commands from position reference sensors, rather than by anchors or moorings, and its class notation (DP1, DP2, DP3) describes redundancy of the whole system, not just how accurately it can hold station.

Knowledge

What a Automation & Control engineer checks first.

A PMS sits above the individual generator control units and the switchboard, watching total electrical load, bus frequency and available generating capacity, and making the decisions a duty engineer would otherwise have to make by eye: start the next standby generator before load exceeds running capacity, synchronise and close it onto the bus, and shed pre-selected non-essential load if generation capacity drops faster than a new set can come online. This distinguishes it from a simple generator auto-start relay, which only reacts to one signal such as low frequency, without…

Would you like to know more?

One request. A person answers within 24 hours on working days.

Tell us the manufacturer, the model and what you need — a part, a service call, a second opinion. Our desk asks the right suppliers from a network of over 114,000 companies and comes back with a quote or a sourcing plan, not a search page.

Frequently asked

Three things people ask first.

Is Automation & Control data free?

Yes. Every model page, every guide and every datasheet in this category is readable without an account. An account adds saved searches and requests, nothing is taken away.

My model is missing — what now?

Send us the nameplate. We identify it by hand, add it to the library, and if you need a part or a service, the request is already on our desk.

Can you source a Automation & Control part?

Yes. Tell us the manufacturer, the model and what you need — our desk asks the right suppliers from a network of over 114,000 companies and comes back with a quote or a sourcing plan.
