We have been busy in recent times installing ECDIS Equipment so that ships can comply with regulations for paperless navigation.

Electromed are now sales and service agents for Transas Marine.  We are heavily involved in the supply, installation and commissioning of Transas ECDIS.  This involves sometimes removing the old equipment, installing new ECDIS multiple stations, and interfacing with other bridge equipment.  Interfacing is an extensive part of the installation as the ECDIS has to be interfaced with the following equipment as a mandatory regulation.

1. Gyro compass,
2. GPS and Secondary GPS.
3. Ships Speed Log (speed through the water)

In addition to get the very most from the ECDIS is may also be interfaced with the following,

1. Navtex
2. Wind Instrument
3. Radars for radar overlay and displaying ARPA targets on the chart
4. Voyage Data Recorder for recording the navigation process as a video input.
5 BNWAS for restarting the count when tracker ball is moved etc
6. Satellite communications for getting chart updates.
7 Autopilot for navigating routes selected.
8. AIS for plotting AIS targets.

Get the most out of your system and have it fully integrated.

Are you ready to comply with the new mandatory IMO carriage requirement for Electronic Chart and Information Display (ECDIS)?  Before 2018 most vessels are required to have installed and operate ECDIS.  See below to check if your vessels are affected.

Electromed have recently been installing dual Martek Marine iECDIS solutions on commercial vessels in Europe and North Africa.

The Martek Marine iECDIS is constructed from heavy duty military spec spec. hardware. It is robust and built to last.  Passive cooling systems use natural air circulation instead of electrical fans for cooling, extending lifetime and reducing breakdowns due to fan failure.

The iECDIS comes pre loaded with Jeppesen Charts so that you can start to navigate immediately. When full chart data base update is required on iECDIS it can be completed inside 10 minutes from one DVD as opposed to some systems which have a complicated update process using many discs.  The iECDIS can can be connected to your vessels VSat or even an optional GSM modem so that all updates can be carried out automatically over the GSM network for a low flat monthly fee.

Contact Electromed today to ensure your new ECDIS is installed to and beyond minimum requirements. The following sensors must be connected to the ECDIS station as a minimum requirement.

Global Positioning System (GPS)

Speed through the water (Speed Log)

Ships Heading (Gyro Compass)
