 Propulsion Control System

Features
The Mega-Guard Propulsion Control
System (PCS) is an advanced system
for perfect remote control of thrusters
and engines. Propulsion plants are
available in many variations which are
all covered by Mega-Guard PCS.
Example propulsion configurations
include:
fixed pitch propeller (FPP) with
reversing gearbox
variable pitch propeller (CPP)
steerable thruster with either
FPP or CPP
waterjet
one to eight thrusters
combustion engine or electric motor
hybrid configurations

Mega-Guard Propulsion Control

System is built-up in a modular way
suitable for all ships and applications.
The PCS includes remote control, engine
safety, RPM/pitch indication, telegraph
and electronic governor functions.
The Mega-Guard PCS receives orders
from the Control Levers on the bridge
and in the control room. The remote
control system gives a thrust (RPM
and/or pitch) setpoint and activates
starting, stopping and reversing
mechanisms. Steerable thrusters
(azimuth control) are also supported by PCS Control Lever with 2,5" Operator Panel
Mega-Guard PCS.

The Mega-Guard Propulsion Control System can be extended with Mega-Guard Electric Propulsion Motors,
Mega-Guard Electric Steerable POD propulsors and Mega-Guard Electric Energy Storage to suit full electric and
hybrid propulsion applications.

Mega-Guard PCS is built up with the following main components:

PCS Control Levers flush panel mounted in bridge, bridge wings and ECR console
PCS Operator Panels flush panel mounted in bridge, bridge wings and ECR console
PCS Controller installed in PCS Cabinet or bridge or ECR console
PCS Triple power supply with power distribution (optional)
Non follow-up control (optional)
RPM, pitch and steering indication (optional)
Emergency Telegraph (optional)

PCS Control Lever
The stylish Control Lever can be supplied in various configurations to suit best each application. Chrome and black
coated aluminium versions in different shapes are available for this purpose. The symmetric black coated aluminium
version is applied for propulsion and tunnel thruster applications. The chrome version is available in a symmetric and
non-symmetric version. The symmetric version is mainly used for tunnel thruster and the non-symmetric version is
used for propulsion applications. A Control Lever is available in a single and dual configuration with same dimensions.
Control Levers for steerable thrusters are equipped with a 360 degrees rotatable steering lever.
PCS Control Levers are available with 'electric shaft' in order to synchronize all Control Levers as well.
