SIMOTICS FD (air-cooled and water-cooled) motors in marine design have been developed for operation below deck onboard ships. Motors intended for on deck operation or for offshore applications must be explicitly ordered using an additional order code (Article No. with additional identification code -Z and order code). The reason for this is that in these cases special measures are required. The thermal utilization of the motors is matched to the generally higher ambient temperatures onboard ship. If the application demands compliance with additional regulations, such as explosion protection, the appropriate motor series must be chosen.
The motors onboard ships are subdivided into three classes of importance by the marine classification societies in collaboration with customers, depending on the application:
-
Essential Service for Propulsion or also "Primary Essential Service"
-
Essential Service or also "Secondary Essential Service" or "Important Service"
-
Non?essential Service or also "Non-Important Service"
As the assignment of a drive to one of the importance classes has a direct impact on the scope of the marine options, this must be known when ordering the motor
The following services of the motor manufacturer are associated with the classes:
|
|
Class of importance
|
|
|
Essential Service for Propulsion
|
Essential Service
|
Non?essential Service
|
|
General breakdown
|
Drives integrated into the propulsion system of the ship.
|
Safety-related drives whose failure must not cause loss of maneuverability of the ship, nor place onboard safety at risk.
|
Drives and systems that are outside the responsibility of the classification societies.
|
|
Typical applications
|
Propeller drive, dynamic positioning drives, booster drives and shaft generators
|
Lateral thrust units, anchor winches, oil and ballast pumps, fire-fighting pumps
|
Pumps for service water, winches, dredging pumps, fans
