IAS CONTROL OPERATIONS (10) - SUMMARY OF MAN-MACHINE INTERFACES AND FUNCTIONS 2.2
ISSUE 4 - JULY 2007
1.1 General
1.1.1 All essential power to the IAS is derived from the Uninterruptible Power
Supply (UPS) located in No. 2 Equipment Room. The 100V 60Hz single phase
output from the UPS is fed directly to the adjacent UPS distribution board. A
simplified diagram of the IAS power supplies is shown above.
1.1.2 Power for the IAS is fed from the following three separate circuits from the UPS
distribution board:
1.1.3 Power for the IAS cargo/general circuit is fed via distribution board DB2 which
is located in the forward part of No. 1 Equipment Room. DB2 supplies most of
the equipment in the CACC console, including the four cargo EOS units, the four
machinery EOS units, the four alarm printers and other peripherals. It also supplies
IAS PIO cubicles 17 and 18 in No. 1 Equipment Room.
1.1.4 Power for the IAS cargo (IS) (Intrinsically Safe) circuit is fed via distribution
board DB4 which is located adjacent to DB2. DB4 is fitted with an internal isolating
transformer to provide an isolated power supply for those cargo IAS units requiring
intrinsically safe inputs. DB4 supplies cargo IAS PIO cubicles 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 11, 12,
13 and 16. All these cubicles are located in No. 1 Equipment Room. No. 2 Machinery
EOS is supplied from distribution panel FI2.
1.1.5 Power for the IAS machinery circuit is fed via distribution board DB3 which is
located in the Monitor Room (adjoining the Main Switchboard Room). DB4 supplies
machinery IAS PIO cubicles 1, 2, 3, 4, 7, 8, 10, 11, 14 and 15 which are located in
the Machinery PIO Room or Monitor Room.
1.1.6 All power to the IAS is supplied at 100V ac single phase. Multifunction
Controllers and some other units have internal power supplies to convert this to
24V dc.
1.1.7 Certain non-essential IAS circuits are not supplied from the UPS. These
include: cabin extension displays; cargo IAS cubicles 19, 20, 21, 22, 23 and
4R; interfaces for the float gauges, and miscellaneous equipment in the CACC such
as the colour hard copier.
1.1.8 The UPS distribution board also supplies power for the gas detection system,
valve remote control for ESDS, turbine remote controls, ACCS, and the ship/shore
telephone & data communications systems (including the radio and optical links).
1.1.9 On the machinery system only, No. 2 EOS and No. 2 CRT, the outboard
keyboard and outboard CRT changeover unit are supplied from the main
switchboard via distribution board FI2 in No. 1 Equipment Room.

are executed every 200 microseconds.
1.3 Operation of the ACCS from IAS keyboards (CACC Machinery EOS 1/2/3 or 4, or EOS5
in the Monitor Room) is carried out by using Custom and Group Displays; see 2.1 IAS
Overview and 2.2 IAS Operations.
1.4 Monitoring only of Machinery IAS Displays can also be done by use of the
portable VDUs and associated keyboards of the IAS Extension VDU System; these can
be plugged into receptacles in the Monitor Room (two positions) and the Engine Room
(five positions).

2.1.1 This is installed in the Monitor Room and supplied with 100V ac 60 Hz. It houses
the CPUs, System Monitor Unit, 24V dc supply, Signal Conditioner for the temperature
sensors, and the CPU Changeover Relay circuits. It also contains a Deviation Check
Device for the outputs of the duplicated transmitters, which will alarm if the preset
deviation limits are exceeded.
2.1.2 Duplicated (dual) transmitters are fitted on each boiler for steam pressure,
steam temperature and steam flow.
2.2.1 Installed in the right-hand wing of the CACC Console, this allows monitoring and
control of boiler ACC parameters, with Auto/Manual changeover switches and manual
loaders for the control of each of 15 loops; see diagrams 3.10.2 (1) and (2).
2.2.2 An IAS/CACC changeover switch on the CACC operator panel selects control
from either the IAS displays (at designated Machinery EOS) or from the CACC panel.
2.3.1 This panel is installed in the centre of the Boiler Gauge Board (BGB) adjacent to
the boilers. In the event of total failure of the ACC Cabinet, it can be used for local boiler
operation in conjunction with the Analogue Back-up Unit (see para 2.4).
2.3.2 The Emergency Operator Panel has 12 output signal indicators and associated
Emerg Man/Remote changeover switches. When switched to EMERG MAN,
manipulation of the associated control valve is carried out by use of the relevant
Increase/Decrease buttons; see diagram 3.10.2(3).

2.4.1 The unit installed in the PIO Unit Room and provided with 100V ac from the
Uninterruptible Power Supply System. It enables the BGB Emergency Operator Panel
to control the forced draught fan inlet guide vanes and boiler control valves in the
event of total failure of the ACC Cabinet.
2.4.2 The Analogue Back-up Unit continuously stores the latest output data for the
following 12 control loops:
- Feed water*
- Steam temperature*
- Air flow* *for each boiler
- Gas flow
- Fuel oil flow*
- Steam dump
- FO burning pump delivery pressure
In the event of total failure of the ACC Cabinet, control of the loops is frozen at the
last valid readings until Emergency Manual control is initiated from the BGB
Emergency Operator Panel.
To enable the ACCS to function, controllers are arranged in the six blocks and
two special control outlined below.
Determines the Fuel Demand signal from the Steam Flow signal (feed forward
control) and Steam Pressure Control signal (feedback control).
Controls the ‘hot’ re-start of the boiler to follow the Steaming-up Schedule, after
ignition of the base fuel oil burner, within maximum boiler load during steam raising.
Controls the total fuel flow (fuel oil gas) to match the Fuel Demand signal from the
Master Controller. The position of the FO flow control valves and the gas flow control
valves are controlled by split-range control according to the Total Fuel Flow control
signal.
Prevents boiler overload by limiting fuel flow to the burners. The set point of this
controller is automatically set by one or two boilers in use.

1.1 The Turbine and Gearbox LO System compromises a single direct-drive main
LO pump, two motor-driven auxiliary LO pumps, LO Cooler, auto-backwash filter (200
micron), LO sump tank with suction strainer and magnets, and LO gravity tank. A gear
case dehumidifier is also provided.
1.2 The direct-drive main LO pump is a horizontal gear type pump with a capacity
of 150m3/h at 2.5 MPa. The auxiliary LO pumps are of the centrifugal type, each
have a capacity of 150m3/h at 1.5 MPa. Two control oil pumps of the horizontal vane
type with a capacity of 2.4m3/h at 1.5 MPa are also provided. The control oil tank is
continuously replenished from the main LO system through an orifice plate and with
overflow back to the LO sump tank. See 3.12.2 Turbine Remote Control System.
1.3 LO is supplied to the system by the main LO pump when the shaft speed is about
65 rev/min. The auxiliary LO pumps are automatically started and stopped by falling
LO pressure and by signal from a propeller speed transmitter at 60 rev/min.
1.4 Both auxiliary LO pumps are capable of being operated locally and from the IAS in
the CACC through Displays C-04, C-30, C-35 or G-41.
1.5 The system pressure is maintained at 0.12 MPa by a pressure control valve located
at the inlet to the auto-backwash filter. System temperature is maintained at 44°C
by a modulated temperature control valve located on the downstream side of the LO
coolers. The LO pressure and temperature are monitored through Displays C-04,
C-30 and C-31. The temperature may be adjusted through Display C-04 or G-41. If (1) If the temperature of the LO is below 25°C, manually OPEN steam

4.3 POWER DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM (1)
1.1 The electrical distribution system consists of three switchboards (main, cargo
and emergency), located in separate rooms, from which all the feeders for the
electrical equipment onboard the ship emanate. The main and cargo switchboards
are further divided and fitted in separate rooms; see also 4.4 Power Management
System (PMS).
1.2 Power is supplied to the main switchboard by three 2700kW generators (one
steam turbine-driven, two diesel engine-driven) at 440V ac 3-ph, 60Hz using an
insulated neutral supply system. A diesel-driven emergency generator of 560kW
capacity is connected to the emergency switchboard to meet statutory requirements
and to provide for restricted operations if the main generators are unavailable.
1.3 Parallel running is possible between all main generators. The emergency
generator may be paralleled with a main generator only for the time required to
transfer power without incurring a black-out.
1.4 Interconnections between the three switchboards are shown on the diagram
above. The normal and abnormal arrangements of these interconnectors are
described for each switchboard in subsequent paragraphs.
1.5 Supplies to Engine Room and deck auxiliaries are taken predominantly from
group starter panels; these consist of five boards GSP1A, 2A, 1B, 2B and 3. Boards
GSP1A and GSP2A form the wings of main switchboard; GSP1B, GSP2B and GSP3
are free-standing. Duplicated essential services derive their supplies from different
group starter boards; either ‘A’ or ‘B’ from boards 1 and 2 or different bushbars of
GSP3. This provides security of supply in the event of a single mode failure of the
power system.
1.6 Transformation of the voltage to 220V ac and 100V ac is effected to supply
navigational aids, lighting and minor power requirements, eg:
- Lighting: 100V ac
- Navigational Aids: 220V ac and 100V ac
- Accommodation Receptacles: 220V ac and 100V ac
1.7 Two battery back-up systems are provided, one for the IAS feeder circuits at
100V ac and the second for other safety systems at 24V dc.
1.8 Details of the electrical distribution systems are shown on diagram 4.3(3).

4.3 POWER DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM (2)
2.1.2 Each 440V feeder panel can supply electrical power to the cargo and
emergency switchboards, as shown on diagram 4.3(1). These feeder circuits are
sized to accept the full load requirements of the respective switchboards, and so
provide total redundancy should any one 440V feeder panel be unavailable due to a
fault. Off-load disconnecting switches are provided between each generator
section and 440V feeder section of the switchboard. They permit isolation of a faulty
section and rapid restoration of supplies to the healthy section of the switchboard.
2.1.3 The busbar rating of the switchboard is 8000A which is adequate for the maximum
electrical load condition of the ship. However, the bus-tie circuit-breakers have a
maximum load current capacity of only 6000A. To restrict the load current seen by the
bus-tie circuit-breakers, operating configurations of generator and feeder circuits are
limited. Details of how this is achieved are given in para 2.2.
2.1.4 Controls are provided for operation from the switchboard for the following:
(a) Manual operation of all circuit-breakers (electrically and/or direct).
(b) Manual start of diesel generator sets and manual synchronising, and
without the check synchoniser in circuit.
(d) Transfer of control to the CACC through the Power Management System.
NOTE:
Control of the bus-tie and feeder air circuit-breakers is only possible manually from
the switchboard. Remote operation applies to generator circuit-breakers. Automatic
operation incorporates controls located on the Generator Auto Control Panel. The
main switchboard controls for all generators are centralised and duplicated on each
synchronising panel of the two switchboard sections.

4.3 POWER DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM (4)
2.2.1 General
This section describes the normal and alternative arrangements for distribution from
the main switchboard with reference to the interlocks that exist. The facilities
available for automatic operation are described in the ‘Power Management
System’ section of the manual (see 4.4).
2.2.2 Normal Operation (set up from main switchboard)
Case 1 (see above). The condition is where power is supplied to the whole distribution
system from the main generators. Both sections of the main switchboard are
energised with both bus-tie circuit-breakers (BT-M1 and BT-M2) closed. Electrical
power is provided to the cargo and emergency switchboard as follows:
The abnormal operating conditions should only be used if one section of the main
switchboard (either MSB1 or MSB2 is de-energised or a disconnecting switch
(DS) has been opened.
(a) Case 1 - Where no generator is connected to one section of the main
switchboard and one or both of bus-tie circuit-breakers (BT-M1, BT-M2) are
open. This condition releases the mutual interlock between the two cargo
switchboard feeder circuits on the energised section and allows supplies to
be restored to both cargo switchboards.
(b) Case 2 - Where a disconnecting switch has been opened but both
bus-tie circuit-breakers are closed. This condition maintains the mutual
interlocks between the two cargo switchboard feeder circuits on the
energised 440V feeder section so that supplies can only be provided to
one of the two cargo switchboards. These interlocks prevent both cargo
being supplied from one section of the main switchboard by two generators
connected to the other section of the main switchboard. If this were
permitted, it would result in the circuit-breakers having a through-current in
excess of their capacity. Consequential overheating and failure would affect
the whole of the main switchboard.

(a) No. 2 cargo valve remote control main hydraulic pump. This is supplied
directly from the emergency switchboard.
(b) Cargo pump reduced volt starter. This is located on CBS1 and may be used
for any cargo pump motor.
Normal operation of both cargo switchboards is to have power supplied from the
main switchboard as explained in para 2.2. Diagram 4.3(4) shows the interlocks that
exist, which are present for all operational modes and must not be interfered with.
All circuit-breakers (ACB and MCCB types) have to be closed manually from the
switchboard. The starters can be operated from the switchboard or have control
transferred to the IAS.
The abnormal operating condition should only be used when power is unavailable
from the main switchboard.
In this event, power is taken from either the emergency generator or shore
power source, via circuit-breakers BT-EC (located on the emergency
switchboard) and BT-CE (located on cargo switchboard No. 1). Under this condition
the operator must limit the power consumed on the cargo switchboard to within the
capacity available of the interconnector, by manual intervention (ie only one cargo
pump, plus auxiliaries). To allow a cargo pump to be started, with the limited power
available from the emergency generator, a reduced voltage starter is installed. The
use of this unit is described in para 2.4.3.
The cargo pump which is selected for use must have the outgoing connections from
its normal supply starter disconnected. Then, using the portable flexible cable stored
in CSB1, a connection is made between the outgoing circuits of the reduced voltage
starter and the cargo pump supply cable. The unit is then energised by closure of the
MCCB supplying the reduced voltage starter, only local control being available from
the free standing starter panel. The portable cables are of sufficient length to reach
any cargo pump unit, thus allowing all tanks to be unloaded using this emergency
mode of operation.

3.1.2 The flow charts detailing the procedure to follow and controls to use are FC13,
FC14, FC15 and FC12 respectively. To set up the system, refer to FC11 above.

available:
3.2.2 The flow charts detailing the procedure to follow and the controls to use are
FC41, FC43, FC44 and FC46 respectively. To set up the system refer to FC11
above.
3.3.1 The prerequisite of automatic load control is that the controls are set up to
achieve ‘PMS control available’ either at the MSB or CACC locations.
3.3.2 The load control system is based upon the turbo generator being the lead set.
This normally supplies electrical power to the vessel with the diesel generators acting
as first and second standby units to automatically adjust for increases in load. The
second standby unit is required only for back-up, in the event that the first standby set
fails to start.
3.3.3 The basis for load sharing is twofold; either equal (parallel) load shared between
each set, or optimised. Equal (parallel) load sharing is, as the name suggests, equal
load apportioned between the two running sets.
3.3.4 Optimum load sharing allows the turbo generator to supply the majority of the
load connected, with the diesel generator supplying the balance. The limitations
in this mode are that the diesel engine must be loaded above its minimum load
condition of 20% (540kW) and that the turbo generator has an upper set point of
load acceptance (95% = 2565kW). The diesel generator starts at a turbo
generator load of 89% (2403kW). When the load condition is under 95% (2565kW)
the diesel generator stops. This mode is provided to enhance fuel efficiency when
boil-off gas is available.
3.3.5 The setting up of these two load sharing modes is performed either through the
keyboard of the IAS when in CACC control or by pushbuttons on the GACP when in
MSB control. (See accompanying illustration).

1.3 Alarms are indicated on Alarm Display A-20.
2. DESCRIPTION
2.1 An electric motor-driven air sample blower continuously draws sample air into
the detector, through solenoid-operated valves fitted in three main sample lines.
2.2 Each main sample line is connected, via three-way and four-way adaptors, to 12
sampling points, thus enabling a total of 36 locations to be monitored for oil mist.
2.3 The solenoid valves are opened in turn, according to a timed cycle, to admit air
samples to the detector unit.
2.4 An alarm will sound if any of the following faults occur within the unit:
- Amplifier failure
- Light source failure
- Oscillating mirror failure
- Photocell voltage failure
- Interruption of compensation instrument
3. MEASURING PRINCIPLE
3.1 Summary
3.1.1 Air or gas samples that contain solid matter appear turbid. Turbidity measurement
assesses this visual phenomenon quantitatively. As shown above, there are a number
of ways to make the measurement.
3.1.2 A light beam (L1) is attenuated as it passes through the air sample (P), because
the light is scattered in all directions by the particles. Either the attenuation of the light
beam or the scattered light can be taken as a measure of turbidity.
3.1.3 In the SIGRIST Oil Mist Detector KTN, the 15° scattered light (St) between the
two beams (G) and (G1) is taken as the measure of turbidity. The SlGRlST Oil Mist
Detector KTN is therefore classified as a 15° scattered light photometer.
