BNWAS

The Kelvin Hughes BNWAS is a Bridge Navigational Watch Alarm System that monitors bridge watchkeeping and escalates alarms through three stages to ensure compliance with SOLAS requirements. As a BNWAS, it is normally installed on the bridge or within the vessel security and recording network with cameras, sensors, displays or data-storage interfaces. In that role, its primary purpose is to record voyage data, monitor bridge activity, supervise watchkeeping or support vessel security according to the listed function. VDR, BNWAS, CCTV, access-control, SSAS and LRIT systems have different statutory roles, so alarms, data retention and communication paths must be checked against the actual installation. Capacity: 3-stage alarm. For exact ratings, dimensions, settings, capacities, materials and variant-specific limits, refer to the manufacturer documentation for the exact figure.
