another shipyard has opted for SMARTSHIP POWERBUS valve control sytem for its latest new super yacht.
70%Less Cable Required
50%Weight Savings
9Weeks of time Saved
There were three decisive reasons for this
Instead of controlling each actuator individually, the SMARTSHIP POWERBUS loop was used. This loop control made it possible to save 50% in weight compared to a regular valve control system.
A special feature of SMARTSHIP POWERBUS is that up to four sensors or signals can be connected per actuator. Here, too, significant savings were realised in terms of cabling.
This significantly reduced cable run also resulted in considerable time savings during installation, which is why there were reserves of 9 weeks for work on other systems.
