BruCon DP & Joystick Control Systems

Brunvoll BruCon dynamic positioning (DP0 to IMO DP3) and joystick control systems for thrusters, propulsion units and rudders, with auto heading, target and waypoint tracking modes.

Description

BruCon DP & Joystick Control Systems from Brunvoll control thrusters, propulsion units and rudders for any propulsion and thruster configuration.

Dynamic positioning

BruCon DP automatically maintains a vessel's position and heading using its propellers and thrusters – fixed over the seabed, relative to a moving object such as another ship or an underwater vehicle, or at a favourable angle to wind, waves and current. Available as DP0 and IMO DP1, DP2 and DP3 classes.

Operational modes: manual heading, auto heading, auto positioning, target tracking, waypoint tracking, towing, rotation point, dead reckoning.

Sensor interfaces: gyro compasses, DGNSS, wind sensors, motion reference units, speed logs, draft sensors, laser, radar and hydroacoustic position references, inertial measurement units.

Joystick system

A single joystick lever gives the operator control of the vessel's thrusters and propulsion units. Manual or automatic heading can be selected; in auto heading mode the vessel's heading is held using the gyro compass.
