The vessels machinery space requires a number of independent automated processes/systems to seamlessly function, while simultaneously requiring a highly reliable system of consistent monitoring, alarming, and control. TRICON IMAC (INTEGRATED MONITORING ALARM AND CONTROL) is a programmable logic controller
(PLC) based fault-tolerant, self-diagnostic, high performance control system, providing a clear overview and improved operation. TRICON IMAC is designed to comply with all classification societies and meets the requirements for every size and type of vessel. The open and modular concept with industry standard communication protocols makes easy integration with existing sip systems. All components are easily available off the shelf giving the owner full control of the solution.

The TRICON MK series of remote propulsion controls systems are designed to control steering gears, Fixed Pitch (FP) or Controllable Pitch (CP), Main propulsion Positioning thrusters, azimuth, and retractable azimuth or tunnel thrusters. The TRIKON MK Series controls are independent, programmable logic controller (PLC) based, scalable to multiple control station requirements with functionality for synchronized controls. These controls provide remote and local control with both Follow Up and Non Follow Up modes of operation with a Fail-Safe design and are ready for interface with Dynamic positioning systems, VDR and ships alarm monitoring systems; industry standard interfaces and protocols providing ease of interface. Our solutions can be tailored for either a new build or a thrusters control retrofit application.
