Intercom & Radio Communications

An intercom system is required for communication between crew members. Intercom systems use hard wired or wireless equipment that allows crew to board other vessels.

External radio communication is usually by VHF radio. Headsets combine speakers and microphones which can also be incorporated into helmets.

Gauges & Instruments

Marine gauges and instuments can be digital or analogue units with separate or multiple readouts. Gauges include volts, water temperature, oil pressure and fuel level.

Marine gauges need to be able to withstand the movement and vibration on RIBs and High Speed Craft. They also require highly visible number graphics and backlighting.

Imaging & Display

PCs and displays are required for a wide range of marine applications including chart plotting, radar overlay, engine monitoring, instrumentation, weatherfax and sonar.

Imaging is used for various marine security and surveillance applications including port security, night vision, thermal imaging, low-light CCTV and laser rangefinding.

Vibration Monitoring

The objective in the RIB and High Speed Craft sector is to reduce the effects of Whole Body Vibration (WBV). The EC Vibration Directive came into force on 6th July 2010.

Military, coastguard, federal and commercial organisations need vibration monitoring to identify and qauntify the problem. SED8 retates to vibration dose over a time period.
