Machinery monitoring upgrade - for Airtours
Suncruises "MV Sunbird" ... |
| |
 |
In
September 2001, MJR Controls were awarded a contract by Airtours
Suncruises to replace the existing obsolete machinery
monitoring and alarm system on their flagship cruiseship "MV
Sunbird".
This challenging project involved the installation of a state
of the art marine approved Windows® 2000 based distributed
control & monitoring system which was installed with the
vessel in service and no disruption to schedule.
|
| |
The
package included multiple operator workstations, local display
units and distributed fieldbus I/O. Remote interrogation facilities
(via Satellite) were also installed to enable the office based
technical staff to view alarm screens, historical data and trends
in real time.
Since the vessel could not be taken out of service during the
installation period , a team of MJR technicians traveled with
the vessel during the entire installation and commissioning
period. The new system was installed alongside the existing
system in such a way that blocks of I/O could be transferred
from the old system to the new therefore ensuring continuity
of alarm monitoring at all times.
When all of the I/O was transferred to the new system, the old
equipment was de-commissioned and removed.
This challenging project was delivered successfully on time
and to budget. |
