Brunvoll has developed the modular Brunvoll Thruster Remote Control and Monitoring System based on PLC standard units.
Approved by the major classification societies, they provide complete control, monitoring and alarm functions for thrusters.
Easy to configure and update,they can be used as stand-alone systems or in integrated monitoring, alarm and control systems.
They are also easy to inter-face with VDR, ECDS and ECDIS systems, as well as with combinator controls.
Available for hard wire or for serial bus connection as option.

Drawing on experience in thruster drive and control systems since 1950 Jastram offer a wide range of applications:
3-step drive systems with resistor units and slip ring motors have been the most popular drives over the last few years.
Dynamic drive, a multistep drive system with resistor unit, slip ring motor and reduced starting current, is the cost-competitive alternative to controllable pitch propeller (CPP) thrusters with the advantages of the robust fixed pitch propeller (FPP).
Frequency-controlled (FC) drives accommodate the increasing demand for stepless control. Interfaces to joysticks and dynamic positioning systems as well as any other customised application can be realised by Jastram.

The Mega-Guard Propulsion Control System fully automates the remote control on the bridge from the main propulsion engine(s), clutches/gearboxes and fixed or controllable pitch propellers. The remote control system fulfills the rules of theclassification societies and includes local engine control, telegraph functions, engine safety system and RPM/Pitch indication.
The reliable Operator Panels on the Bridge, the Control Room and on the Local Stand are easy to operate and to install. The Propulsion Control System receives orders from the combined manoeuvring/telegraph lever on the Bridge or Control Room. The remote control system activates starting, stopping and reversing mechanisms and gives a Thrust (speed or pitch) setpoint. The Mega-Guard Propulsion Control System includes as well frequency controlled Electronic Drive Units for electric propulsion motors up to 3000kW at 690Vac.

Our thruster control system K-Thrust is an independent remote control system for electrically driven thrusters, propulsion units and rudders. The applications include:
Side thrusters
Azimuth thrusters
Azimuth steering propulsion
Electric main propulsion
Rudders
Our propulsion and thruster control system offers manual remote control of main propulsion, thrusters and steering gear. When combined with the capabilities of a dynamic positioning system, the thruster control system becomes a manoeuvring system with a complete range of ship-handling functions:
Manual control from levers
Auto piloting
Joystick control with automatic heading option
Automatic station keeping
