We provide end-to-end lifecycle care for X-band and S-band marine radars—magnetron or solid-state—so you keep situational awareness in rain, sea clutter and traffic-dense waters.
Bench & on-mast calibration: transmitter power, PRF, receiver sensitivity/noise floor, AFC, STC/FTC and manual/auto tuning verification under realistic targets.
Antenna/pedestal service: bearings, seals, gearboxes, slip-rings and scanner motors; vibration/noise root-cause analysis with lubrication schedules.
Waveguide integrity: pressure/leak tests, dehydrator & desiccant condition, rotary-joint insertion loss and VSWR measurements with acceptance limits.
Alignment & accuracy: heading/azimuth alignment, bearing error plots, range discrimination and minimum-range checks on calibrated reflectors.
Target processing: ARPA stability, guard zones, interference rejection, sea/rain clutter suppression and tune optimization for coastal & open sea modes.
Spares & obsolescence: magnetron hours tracking, solid-state health counters, recommended spares lists and upgrade roadmaps.
Deliverables include a measurement sheet (TX power, RX levels, waveguide pressure), alignment offsets, evidence screenshots and a preventive maintenance plan aligned to your trading pattern.
We keep your ECDIS ecosystem compliant and crew-friendly, from software baselines to chart management and sensor integrity—supporting safe route planning and efficient monitoring.
Software/FW baselining & backup: version audit, vendor patches, rollback media, secure update flow and configuration snapshots for disaster recovery.
Alarms & safety: safety contour/depth policy, XTE thresholds, look-ahead zones, grounding alarms and route-check SOPs aligned with your SMS.
Redundancy & backup: dual-ECDIS or paper backup arrangements, data replication tests, power/UPS failover simulations and snapshot-based restore drills.
Ops usability: route import/export standards, no-go area libraries, radar overlay tuning and conning/integrated bridge interactions.
Cyber hygiene: user roles, removable media policy, audit trails and tamper-evident update procedures.
Deliverables: update & chart correction logs, configuration prints, a bridge checklist for passage planning, and targeted onboard coaching for OOW and Masters.
We ensure your VDR/S-VDR continuously records mandatory datasets per SOLAS and IEC 61996, minimizing audit findings and data-loss risk across voyages.
APT readiness: functional tests, conformity matrix review, evidence capture and sample dataset extractions in line with class guidance.
Audio & image: bridge microphone gain/noise optimization, wing pickups, radar video and ECDIS screenshot capture tests under load.
Capsules & beacons: float-free/fixed capsule health (HRU/date), beacon self-test and battery condition checks with replacement advisories.
Data paths: GPS/GNSS, Gyro, AIS, Log, depth, wind—validity, time sync (NTP/GNSS), sequence continuity and gap analysis with corrective actions.
Power integrity: UPS runtime under load, switchover behavior, cabling continuity, earth bonding and EMI checks.
Data security: download procedures, retention windows, evidence packaging and handover media for authorities/class/insurers.
Deliverables: evidence screenshots, audio samples, dataset checklists, prioritized fault findings and an action plan to close gaps before APT or flag inspection.
From GNSS and GPS compasses to VHF/MF-HF and satellite terminals, we secure clean RF paths and trustworthy sensor inputs that your bridge systems depend on.
RF performance: VSWR sweeps, feeder loss checks, LNA/LNB health and SNR verification at the receiver for GNSS/VHF/SATCOM chains.
Cables & connectors: N/TNC/BNC inspection, water ingress & salt-mist mitigation, correct torqueing, heat-shrink and weatherproof sealing.
Routing & bonding: chafe/EMI avoidance, proper earthing, lightning protection and corrosion control across masts and arches.
GNSS quality: multipath assessment, antenna siting, sky-view optimization and interference tracing with mitigation recommendations.
Sensors: wind, log/speed, depth/echo-sounder offsets, heading alignment and calibration records with NMEA/IEC validation.
Installations: bracket/radome torque specs, gland sealing, documentation of signal paths and as-built drawings for future maintenance.
Deliverables: RF & sensor measurement sheets, photo evidence, updated diagrams and a prioritized punch-list for reliability and uptime.
