Steering gear protections on the vessel. Quick check for the inspector

Greetings! Today we will consider all the steering gear protections on the vessel, and also figure out how to check them. For example, the FLUTEK - KAWASAKI steering gear will be considered.

As it happens in ports, port state control comes to the vessel and checks the safety systems of the mechanisms. Very often, the protections and operation of the steering gear are checked according to the register requirements.

Start Fail. The fire pump does not start. Troubleshooting

Greetings! Today our fire pump does not start; the “Start Fail” signal is displayed on the motor controller. The Reset button does not reset the error.

We open the starter panel, open the fire pump start-up and operation circuit, and look for the “Start Fail” signal. The motor controller produces this signal in many cases.
