Converters are used in a variety of maritime applications, such as:

The use of converters and frequency converters: These devices control the speed and rotation speed of electric motors used as propulsion motors on ships. This improves energy efficiency and enables precise control of the propulsion force.

Hybrid and electric drives: For hybrid or fully electric propulsion systems on ships, converters and control electronics are crucial to optimize the energy from batteries, generators, or fuel cells.

Inverters and converters: These are needed to stabilize the alternating current supply on board, regulate the voltage, and provide power for various systems (e.g. radar, communication, navigation).

Emergency power systems: In order to ensure that critical systems can continue to operate even in the event of a main power supply failure, inverters and controls are used in emergency power systems (UPS - Uninterruptible Power Supply).

HVAC systems (heating, ventilation, and air conditioning): Control electronics and inverters are necessary to regulate the air conditioning on board and improve the energy efficiency of the systems.

Entertainment and lighting systems: Control technology and inverters are used to control the complex electronics and power supply for lighting, communication, and entertainment systems.

Oil and gas platforms: Offshore platforms also use maritime control technology and inverters for various purposes, including controlling drilling systems, compressors, pumps, and power distribution.

Renewable energies: Offshore wind farms require inverters and control systems to feed the generated energy into the grid and regulate the power of the wind turbines.

Energy distribution systems: Converters and switchgear are required for energy distribution on board ships to route electrical energy from generators to consumers such as propulsion systems, lighting, navigation systems, pumps, and air conditioning.

Power Management Systems (PMS): Control systems that optimize the entire energy distribution and utilization on the ship. They ensure that the energy supply remains stable at all times by prioritizing loads and maximizing energy efficiency.

Automated control systems: Automation systems are used in modern ships to monitor and control all aspects of ship operation, including engines, pumps, valves, fire extinguishing systems, and other critical systems.

Dynamic Positioning (DP) Systems: Advanced control systems are required to maintain the position of a ship without anchoring, automatically controlling thrusters and rudders based on real-time data from GPS, gyroscopes, and other sensors.

Cranes and hoists: Electric cranes and lifting systems: Cranes and lifting systems on ships and offshore platforms are operated with inverters and control electronics to precisely control movement and load.

Underwater robots and ROVs (Remotely Operated Vehicles): Converters and control technology are crucial for controlling the electrical drives and instruments on unmanned underwater vehicles used for marine research, maintenance, and inspection.

Research facilities on board: Research vessels require precise control and regulation of the laboratories and instruments on board.

Displays / MFDs are of great importance on ships in various application areas, such as:

  • Radar and navigation systems: Displays are used to display and control navigation data such as radar, GPS, and electronic charts.
  • Autopilot control: The captain or officer can control the autopilot and monitor important data such as course, speed, and position through MFDs.
  • Communication systems: Displays assist in operating communication systems (e.g. radio, satellite communication) to ensure contact with other ships and land stations.
  • Engine Monitoring: Displays monitor the condition of the ship's engines, including temperature, pressure, and performance. They help the engine crew to detect problems early.
  • Energy Management: MFDs allow for the control of generators and electrical systems on board. This is especially important for supplying vital systems such as lighting, navigation, and emergency power.
  • Fuel Systems: Monitoring and controlling fuel consumption and fuel pumps can be done through displays to ensure optimal operation.
  • Fire and gas detection systems: MFDs display the status of fire and gas detection systems, alert the crew to problems, and enable quick reactions.
  • Firefighting systems: Displays control firefighting systems and fire extinguishers on board, allowing the crew to act immediately in case of emergency.
  • Bilge pumps and leakage detection: Monitoring bilge water and activating pumps is often done through panels.
  • HVAC (Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning): MFDs control ventilation, heating, and cooling on the ship to ensure the well-being of the crew and protect sensitive goods.
  • Freshwater and Wastewater Systems: Displays assist in monitoring freshwater and wastewater systems to ensure smooth operation.

On passenger ships or cruise ships, displays also control the entertainment system, internet connections, and internal communication systems.

  • Stabilizers: Displays are used to control the ship's stabilizers, which stabilize the ship in rough seas.
  • Propulsion control: Modern propeller and rudder propulsion systems can be monitored and controlled through MFDs.
