Bridge Integration System (IBS/INS) · Navigation & Bridge Equipment
Marine crews and engineers rely on reliable navigation systems to ensure safe and efficient operation. Kongsberg Maritime AS offers the K-Bridge system, designed to meet IMO/SOLAS navigation requirements. This system processes and displays Navigation Data / Sensor information, and has received approval from DNV. Potential issues with the K-Bridge can include display failures due to electronic aging, sensor interface communication errors, software or firmware bugs requiring updates, corrosion of antenna cables due to deck loading, and voltage supply problems caused by fluctuations in the ship's electrical system. Kongsberg Maritime AS provides spare parts through their network, with a lead time of 1-4 weeks. It is recommended to have backup systems on board as required. To maintain optimal performance, the K-Bridge requires annual inspection according to SOLAS/flag state regulations, software updates as advised by the manufacturer, quarterly sensor calibration, and monthly testing of the backup system.
