==> One of the vital automations to a maritime vessel is the Power Management System (PMS), monitoring & providing safety & control over the main-switch-board. 

==> Power Management System is consisting of the several hardware, including: PLC, synchronization units, the load sharing, parallel load monitoring, generators, circuit breakers & intelligent PMS software working in the back-ground (under supervision & as part of the PLC software) to monitor the safety & control (R.A.Sh.B.M. PMS-ZMZ-002581).

Supposed, you as an reputable owner have got an obsolete marine vessel comprising an out of order main-switchboard suffering from lack of an efficient power management system and definitely any types of automation to control the Generator’s ACB(s) and providing safety over the engine and switchboard itself?

Here, we’ve brought about an cutting-edge solution (zmz002581 PMS automations) under siemens plc marine-approved type to resolve such a disaster and ready to give an final solution & provide a hassle-free operation to such frustrating condition.

In the attached video, obviously it has been witnessed that the PMS-ZMZ-002581 Power Management System has been established and commissioned over a fully manual platform and has brought about a versatile remote-control and safety over the MSB and simultaneously, on the Generators to provide parallel-running modes of the GENSET (s) and a fully automatic-synchronization  & load sharing ability.

Simply, by touching the imaginary buttons of the Air Circuit Breakers, over the HMI, the “Auto-Synchronization” process shall be initiated and the in-coming generator shall be paralleled to the out-going generator.

Here, and in the present maritime vessel’s PMS automation project, even the ACB (s) were found obsolete, and no any motorized gear were applicable; therefore, we’ve replaced those out of order ACB(s) with the Motorized ACB(s) from ABB.

Due to lack of safety over the main switch board, we’ve installed several electronic current & potential transducers to monitor the current amount, direction (to prevent reverse-power) and voltage over the phases of the generators & bus-bars.

Other relevant parameters like the frequency monitor (including the safeties) are being provided under PROFINET network.
