Automated Vessel Landing Control System (ASC)

The ASC system is designed to provide control of the parameters of the landing of the vessel.

The ASC system is proposed for use on all types of ships and vessels of the military and civil fleet to assess the stability during operation.

The ASC system provides:

• determination of landing parameters both on calm water and with sea waves up to 6 points;
• trouble-free continuous operation without direct local maintenance and monitoring;
• measurement of vessel draft parameters:
  — on quiet water with a basic absolute error of ± 5 mm;
  — on a wave with a basic absolute error of no more than 100 mm;
• calculation and display on computer screens of the landing parameters of the vessel from the measured values of the draft:
  — roll (in degrees);
  — trim (in meters and degrees);
  — vessel displacement in terms of static position (in tons and as a percentage of total displacement);
• output to the automated control system of the landing parameters of the vessel and information about the technical condition of the system with a frequency of at least 2 Hz;
• compensation of the influence of the wind component on the calculated landing values;
• display on panel stations of information in the form of video frames about the position of the vessel and landing parameters (static and dynamic);
• the interface with the automated control system is provided via an RS-485 interface (with a frequency of at least 2 Hz) with a communication line length of up to 400 m inclusive.
