A novel marine engine room monitoring and alarm system integrated simulation

Marine engine room alarm and monitoring system is one of the most important components of modern automatic engine room. Most of alarm and monitoring systems have only for real monitoring and alarm control, can´t provide the function of simulation and training online; also have deficiencies in other functions and display modes, which can´t meet the rapid development demand of the modern ship. A novel marine alarm and monitoring system combined with real-time monitoring and simulation, which can not only be used to monitoring and alarm, also can be used to training operators online and fault diagnosis. The system configures in two networks and modularization structure. The system includes more than 800 monitoring and alarm points, which cover with main dynamical devices in marine engine room. This system has been applied to an oil/chemical ship automation and new type of marine engine room simulator.
