The new data analysis function is based on the existing operation data received from the ship without additional cost or additional onboard hardware.

At present, as the standard function of a100-l and a200-l turbochargers of two-stroke engines, this exciting new function is the first in the industry. It provides a simple and visual indicator of turbocharger performance for a single ship and the whole fleet.

For ships that have realized data transmission, the “turbine visualization” function can provide all-weather remote access to the turbocharger in digital and visual ways through the online customer portal. Through in-depth understanding of turbocharger performance, ship owners and operators can clearly see their optimization potential in fuel saving and carbon dioxide emission reduction.

This function will record and analyze turbocharger performance from ship operation. Thus, an important “benchmark” is proposed to evaluate the performance of the accumulated operating hours of the turbocharger throughout its life cycle.

Alexandros karamitsos, head of global sales of low-speed turbochargers, said: “traditionally, turbochargers and engines are regarded as a black box, and ship owners and operators cannot fully understand their performance. With the help of” turbine visualization “, we can now obtain data and understand performance in a transparent way. As a simple and intuitive performance indicator, shipowners and operators can now see their turbocharger and engine operation at a glance. This is particularly convenient for new ships in the trial voyage stage and ship warranty stage. “
From January 2022, the “turbine visualization” function will be provided as a standard function of a100-l and a200-l turbochargers and will support other data services provided by ABB, such as turbo marinecare service agreement and ABB ability ™ Tekomar XPERT for fleet.
