STEERING CONTROL SYSTEM HLD-SC 600-Highlander

Product Overview

HLD-SC 600 Steering Control System is based on years of intensive research & development by Beijing Highlander Digital Technology Co., Ltd. The latest generation digital steering control system has been type approved by China Classification Society (CCS) and DNV GL. Heading Control System is adaptive to different types of vessels and loading conditions. The precision control results in less rudder movements, which not only reduces the wear and tear on machinery but also reduces fuel consumption.

Functions

· Non-Follow-up steering Control

Non-Follow-up Unit using solid and reliable handle, operating feeling good.

· Follow-up steering Control

Helm wheel can be locked in every position, and the dial scale near zero degrees especially has been amplified in order to precise steering.

· Override

Support direct operate the Non-follow-up Unit to override control when on Automatic steering Control mode.

· Automatic steering Control

Support the heading control, course control, track control.

· Remote Control

Multiple remote control stations, select by Remote Control Link Unit.

Product Features

Wide range of applications

Modular design: all modules are of a standard size or a multiple of the standard size. Different combinations of modules can be used to meet different needs, ranging from basic follow-up steering to full autopilot mode, for single-rudder and dual/twin-rudder systems. Autopilot module available separately. Steering Gear Pump Starter, Steering Gear Alarm, and NFU Control Box are provided separately. Suitable for container ships, utility vessels, bulk carriers, offshore tugs, small fishing vessels, and others.

High reliability

Online self-monitoring technology detects system abnormalities at any time. Strict channel isolation technology ensures that each channel is electrically independent and fully isolated from other channels.

High control accuracy & energy efficiency

Advanced control algorithms ensure follow-up control accuracy of less than 0.3°, and better than 0.3° in Sea State 3 under automatic control mode; they also reduce steering frequency, avoid large rudder angles, save fuel, and reduce wear and tear on the steering system.

Friendly interface

Full-color & 7-inch touch screen with keyboard.

All-digital design

All-digital interfaces (IEC 61162-1), including the interface with the VDR; supports two heading source input.

Easy installation and maintenance

Original calibrated correction technology, simplifies Rudder Feedback Unit connecting rod installation.

Intelligent alarm system

100 records of history alarm.

Multiple automatic control functions

Including heading control, course control, track control.

Large data analysis

Heading records of 2 hours, which are helpful to steering.

Remote maintenance

Maintainable remotely together with HLD-VDR 600.
