With the development of the global shipping industry, the technical content and automation level of ships are constantly improving. The measurement of pressure, level, flow and temperature has become an indispensable part of modern shipbuilding. It can accurately monitor the parameter changes of various systems inside the ship to ensure the safety and stable operation. Through the level measurement instruments, the crew can grasp the system status in real time, so as to make timely adjustments and repairs, prevent potential failures, and ensure the safety of ship navigation. The following five measuring solutions will explain what role measuring instruments play.
1. Ballast tank level monitoring
Monitor the flow, level, and pressure data of the ballast water system to help the crew and the automation system accurately adjust the ballast water inlet and outlet. Liquid level height and system pressure through the sensor ensure the ship can maintain the best stability in different navigation environments, avoid the problem of ship tilting or imbalance caused by improper ballast water, and always keep the ship stable.
2.Fuel Monitoring
The fuel supply system monitors the pressure, flow and liquid level of the fuel tank to ensure normal operation and comprehensive safety management of the ship. The historical fuel consumption data helps optimize operational efficiency and save energy.
3. Ship water circulation cooling system
The ship water circulation cooling system automatically adjusts the cooling water temperature by optimizing seawater flow control, responds to heat load changes in real time. It helps optimize the central cooler’s heat exchange efficiency, saves energy and improves seawater flow control.
4. Remote valve control
In the ship’s automation system, the pressure transmitter and the temperature control system work together to control the remote valve. To ensure the main engine fuel supply, the heavy oil is first heated and separated in the sedimentation tank, then purified by the oil separator, and finally enters the daily oil tank for use at any time by the main engine, boiler and other equipment. The valve remote control system monitors oil and gas storage in real time, optimizes the supply plan, improves fuel efficiency, and avoids the safety hazard of insufficient fuel during navigation.
5. Temperature control system
Temperature control systems are essential for various equipment in ships, especially engines, cooling systems and other high-temperature equipment. The ship’s temperature control system uses refrigerant to circulate between the condenser and evaporator to achieve cooling, heating and dehumidification. Corrosion-resistant transmitters and flow meters work stably in harsh environments. Combining high-performance measuring instruments with automation systems not only improves accuracy and energy efficiency, but also facilitates remote management and manual control.
