DaccR for Development, Comparison of Fast Boats
New product intended to meet requirements of EU Legislation on Whole Body Vibration (WBV). The Dyena Acceleration Recorder came about from listening to delegates at successive conferences where the professional industry discussed the future problems of meeting the EU Legislation on Whole Body Vibration (WBV) that is now in effect. Whilst there were plenty of people investigating wave impact effects on boats and crews, using increasingly sophisticated data logging equipment, no…
Salwico Emission Monitoring Systems
The Salwico Emission Monitoring Systems is a continuous measuring NOx, SO2 and CO2 analyzing equipment for marine applications. Unlike other solutions based on electrochemical sensor technology, not equivalent to chemiluminescent analyzing principles, Consilium is the first and only supplier providing a fully compliant solution. The analyzing technology is based on the regulatory chemiluminescent principle as stated in the Marpol Annex VI NOx Technical Code. By adapting innovative…
