KONGSBERG 8100272 Power and Input Specifications

Rated System Input Voltage: 24V DC nominal power grid input

Input Voltage Tolerance Window: 18V DC to 32V DC operational range limits

Speed Sensing Inputs: Multi-channel pulse train tracking inputs designed for direct pairing with high-frequency pickup sensors monitoring engine flywheel ring gear teeth

Control Input Demands: Dedicated interfaces accepting remote serial commands, analog speed setpoints, and manual mechanical lever hardwired track signals

Output and Communication Interfaces

Actuator Control Outputs: Specialized analog current or voltage control loops (e.g., 4-20mA or specialized hydraulic governor actuator drives) providing highly accurate mechanical throttle positioning.

Network Interfaces: Integrated dual-channel Controller Area Network (CAN bus) or proprietary Kongsberg serial links to secure peer-to-peer redundancy directly to adjacent AutoChief main automation units.

Auxiliary Signal Contacts: Configurable auxiliary digital alarm contact closures indicating engine overspeed limits, device faults, or emergency fuel trip triggers.

KONGSBERG 8100272 Wiring and Connection Methods

Signal Terminals Interfacing: Uses plug-and-lock pluggable high-density screw terminal block strips across the module edge, reducing wiring complexity and allowing tool-free card swaps during troubleshooting.

Sensor Shielding Requirements: Demands low-impedance shielded twisted-pair (STP) wiring loops for all speed pickup runs, with shields cleanly terminated to the central shipboard hull grounding rail to prevent radio frequency interference (RFI).

Communication Routing: Standardized industrial serial/bus wiring runs connected via heavy-duty multi-pin plug arrangements to lock in signal continuity against persistent engine room vibration frequencies.

KONGSBERG 8100272 Product Features

Propulsion Speed Stabilization: Uses sophisticated, adjustable PID software governors to suppress engine speed hunting caused by heavy wave motion and sudden propeller ventilation.

AutoChief Integration: Seamless native handshake mapping inside the AutoChief 600 framework, enabling operators to handle diagnostic interrogation and firmware verification right from the main bridge workstation.

Overspeed Trip Protection: Employs an independent internal hardware watch routine to catch engine runaway anomalies, bypassing the core software stack to trip safety lines instantly.

Conformal Coated Assembly: Fully coated with marine-grade protective layers to seal structural traces from humid air, salt sprays, oil vapor, and metal particulates.
