Torque Power Meter System

Torque Power Meter System
HOPOW

System
The Torque Power Meter System
enables engine protection against
overload, optimise the maintenance
and improve the fuel economy. The
RELIABILITY
More than 50 years experience in
measurement technologies combined
with the use of modern micro -
processors are the solid base of
Hoppe’s Torque Power Meter
Systems. More than 1,000 installed
systems for continuous duty on all
kind of ships is proof of a high
degree of reliability.
EASY HANDLING
The assembly and installation of
the Torque Power Meter System
do not require any special knowledge
and can be carried out with
usual mechanical and electrical
skills. Special adjustments during
installation or operation are not
necessary. After installation the
system will be zero calibrated via its
own internal functions.

FLEXIBILITY
Via serial interface the Torque
Power Meter can communicate
with the ship’s monitoring system.
Analogue or digital remote display
indicators can be connected. Additionally
the signals of shaft generator
power or fuel consumption meter
can be processed.

Components
HOMIP
The PLC core component HOMIP
analyses the signals from the torsion
and RPM transducers and calculates
the torque and power. A touch screen
is used for data and trend displays as
well as for parameter inputs. Parameter
and zero point adjustment can be
arranged by a touch screen. Com -
pact dimensions of 190x190 mm
allow installation of the control unit
in all kinds of control panels.
SHAFT TRANSDUCER
The torsion of the propulsion shaft is
measured by strain gauges. The
signals are transmitted wireless to the
telemetric receiver where they are
amplified and sent together with the
speed signal for further analysing and
data processing to the HOMIP.

PERFORMANCE MONITORING
The performance monitoring system shows the current
parameters of the vessel’s performance data fuel
consumption, ship speed, draught and wind. It displays
different charts and informations on the monitor and also
supports logging functions. All charts are designed as
rolling diagrams and include zoom functions. Special
views like “shaft view”, “current working point” and different
statistical views are available.
