The EDCenter, as heart of the e-line concept of International Technology, is a modern engine diagnostic cloud application. The system analyses and diagnoses the condition of the engines based on various parameters and predicts incipient failures from every ship of the entire fleet. The system also continuously analyses the fuel consumption and indicates if savings can be achieved.
The effectiveness of the overall solution helps keeping track of the engine condition and fuel consumption with an easy traffic-light navigation across the entire fleet. Furthermore, the powerful multi-user system automates the huge data collecting and analyzing process. The EDCenter changes the habit of waiting for weeks to receive reports to be analyzed. In emergency cases chiefs, superintendents, fleet manager as well as external experts will automatically be alarmed by e-mail in order to take immediate action to ensure energy efficiency and low maintenance costs.
Easily, the EDCenter is able to automatically collect engine parameters of existing systems and foreign equipment by the automatic data collection layer called ADCL which will be installed on the vessel server.
The ADCL independently operates and collects all online parameters from the engine management systems such as ABB, Kongsberg, PMI, SIMOS Laval, etc. like exhaust gas temperature, turbocharger parameters, fuel flow meter values, charging air parameters, etc. important to evaluate the correct fuel consumption and proper engine condition.
