Reliable Signal Processing for Alarm and Monitoring
Collecting, processing and visualizing data, as well as generating alarms – are routine, yet important tasks that the WAGO-I/O-SYSTEM handles with ease. For alarm and monitoring applications, we have developed a full portfolio of reliable products and smart solutions specifically designed to meet the unique requirements of the marine industry even under the toughest conditions.
Why use WAGO?
The Future of Marine Applications
Digitalization and automation offer great opportunities for Maritime 4.0 applications. Not only are continued efficiency gains expected for commercial shipping, but also for cruise shipyards and tourism companies. Yet with increasing shipboard digitalization and networking aboard ships, the risk for cybercrime and data misuse also increases. WAGO meets the rigorous challenges of modern shipping with a full array of maritime certified solutions.
Why use WAGO?
Tank Ballast and Cargo Management
Maintaining stability in rough seas is vital for sea-bound freighters. A reliable tank ballast system can serve as a ship's life insurance policy against incorrect trim, heel or draught. Likewise, rapid loading and unloading can be simplified with an automated cargo management system. WAGO’s automation-equipped emergency shutdown system ensures the safe continuity of essential processes when encountering extreme fault-conditions at sea.
Why use WAGO?
Deck Handling and Cranes
In rough seas or in environmental protection zones, tugboats and cranes must be ready for action at any time. In the Marine Industry a competitive advantage comes to those who offer “around the clock” services consistently. Automated winches and machines on deck provide this when maneuvering at sea. Direct control and parameterization allow for automated processes at key points along the tool chain to further add to this cost-saving advantage.
Why use WAGO?
Demanding Cabin Automation
Even during the most challenging of times, holiday cruises have remained extremely popular, prompting a justifiable rise in onboard demands for comfort as well as safety. WAGO’s range of cost-effective, reliable interconnection solutions form the reliable electrical architecture upon which these onboard amenities can be realized. These same solutions can be adapted to meet additional needs in the realm of fire and hazard safety.
Why use WAGO?
Cybersecurity on the High Seas
With increased digitization and networking aboard ships, the risk for data abuse and cybercrime also increases exponentially. Anyone considering the possibilities of Maritime 4.0 must also consider the increased requirements for cybersecurity – and more importantly, find suitable solutions for implementing it. WAGO understands this need and provides a range of effective cybersecurity solutions.
Why use WAGO?
Transparency for Propulsion
Whether it’s a luxury yacht, a cruise ship or a specialty ship – diesel–electric drive systems provide great benefits wherever electrical energy consumption is high
Big Data for Big Ships
While IIoT continues to adopt specific forms for implementation in process automation environments, the first cyber-physical systems and cloud-based network structures for maritime operations have a long way to go before they are ready for sea travel.
Efficient System Integration Through Service-Oriented Software in Automation
Today, all data is already collected by the terabyte on many ships. However, the work of shipyards and system integrators is complicated by the ubiquitous requirement to create the conditions for data collection.
Maintenance in Record Time
System wiring on drilling platforms is a major challenge. The WAGO-X-COM®S-SYSTEM reduces work on site to a minimum.
Intrinsically Safe in the EX Area
With its 750 XTR Series of products, WAGO has offered a solution since 2014 that broadens the range of use for machines and systems with regard to environmental conditions and external interference factors, while providing the highest degree of flexibility.
Zero Emissions, Doubly Safeguarded
Supported by the Arctic University of Norway in Narvik (UiT) and funded by the Norwegian government, the shipbuilders at Grovfjord Mekaniske Verksted (GMV) have developed an energy management system (EMS) for a zero-emission ship with an all-electric drive.
WAGO meets the current challenges of this industry with its comprehensive solution portfolio. Our components for marine applications stand up to the most extreme environments and provide many years of service.
