Control of Propulsion Engines
Through the software, it is possible to monitor the flow, level, temperature, and density of fuels (water and diesel oil) in the tanks of the push boats. The engines of the propulsion system of these vessels are also monitored by E3, as well as the electrical and navigation systems. To ensure more safety for the crew, Elipse’s platform features a screen that maps the deck of the push boat, identifying, in red, the location of a fire. In addition, it triggers an alarm in case of intrusion. Finally, the solution generates reports that can be exported via Excel for trend analysis.
