SHaPoLi Shaft Power Limitation offers additional advanced engine control options, such as the power “limitation by Fuel Oil Consumption (FOC)” which allows for further optimization of the ship’s emissions and engine operation and the “limitation by SOG”. All the possible operational and safety scenarios are accounted for by design.

SHaPoLi Shaft Power Limitation key design and safety feature is that due to its transparent integration method into the existing vessel infrastructure, in the unlikely case of a system failure, the vessel’s navigational safety and the actual control of the ship’s engine remains unaffected, as there is a direct instantaneous transition to the existing M/E control configuration, as if the system never existed.

SHaPoLi Shaft Power Limitation intuitive and straightforward design of the system’s user interface allows the operators to have full situational awareness of the process. A manual override function is offered for navigational safety purposes, when availability of the full engine power is required. The effect of this override action is instantaneous, offering a great safety advantage compared to other available EEXI limitation methods with mechanical limitation of the engine’s power output, which require considerable time and procedures to be manually overridden.

SHaPoLi Shaft Power Limitation offers extended data logging and reporting functionality, meeting and exceeding the regulatory requirements. The fully automatic control function of the system, and the advanced functional, safety and operational features listed above, make this the first SHaPoLi system of its kind, being at the cutting edge of technology compared with other EEXI solutions that provide only basic datalogging and alarming or mechanical-only engine power limitation.
