Martek Marine

The Vigilant™ Funnel Smoke Monitoring System measures optical opacity in exhaust stacks to record and help control smoke emissions from marine diesel engines, boilers and incinerators. Using a single pass (transmitter/receiver) arrangement the system records an opacity reading from 0-100%.

Applications

• Marine Boilers
• Auxiliary Diesel Engines
• Main Propulsion Diesel Engines
• Marine Incinerators
• Combustion Units
• TMSA Part 3, Element 10 Best practice

Stand Alone or Fully Integrated System

Vigilant™ is available as either a stand-alone instrument or part of a fully integrated, cost-effective, alarm and monitor system. It can be connected to a PC where full data logging and alarm summaries can be recorded for historical use. This is particularly useful where proof of actual opacity level and time duration is required as proof for local authorities or port state control.

Simple Installation by Your Ship’s Crew

The system is supplied in a modular kit format consisting of a Transmitter head (TX), a Receiver head (RX), and an optional Operator Interface (OI) control unit. No specialist knowledge is required to install and commission the system meaning it can be fitted by your ship’s crew.

Self Cleaning for Optimum Performance

Both the TX and RX heads are supplied with an air-purge body which when connected to a high volume of clean low pressure air (a blower is recommended) will resist particle deposition on the lenses and further lengthen service intervals.

Rugged and Reliable

Vigilant™ has no moving parts, is of rugged design, and has an excellent reliability record. Maintenance simply involves cleaning the TX and RX lenses, which are easily accessible due to the latched head design.

Benefits

• Low maintenance (no moving parts or perishables, and easy optics access)
• Simple installation and functionality
• Programmable alarm contacts and 4-20mA output
• Rugged construction
• Utility software with full command and control features
