Although the measuring rings are heavy and rugged components, they are
made with special physical characteristics. Therefore the measuring rings
should be handled with care:
● Do not drop the measuring rings.
● Avoid bumping against hard objects like bulkheads, etc.
● Do not use any »excessive« force against the measuring rings. Please
observe and follow the installation instructions of this manual.

● For the basic dimensional requirements of the support, please refer to figure 11.
● The support should be built from angled (L-shaped) steel bars of at least
80x80 mm, or better. The total weight of the transmitter is 45 kg (99 lb.).
● Please make sure that the support is suitably built to keep the transmitter in place.
The transmitter must not swing against the devices on the shaft, nor swing away
from the shaft, nor swing in the direction of the shaft. Vibrations from the ship
should not be enhanced by the support. Add enforcing steel bars to improve the
support if required.

Attachment
Adjustments
1. Transmitter ring: The transmitter ring disc (= sending antenna) must go through
the center of the RPM detector (→ figure 12 »A«). Let the shaft slowly rotate
(driven by the turning gear) and adjust the transmitter ring by hand. For fine
adjustment (if required), tighten the clamping bolts of the shaft collar slightly, then
move the shaft collar of the transmitter ring to make the adjustment. Allowable
axial deviation: ±0.3 mm. – When the adjustment is finished, tighten the clamping
bolts.
2. Receiving antenna: Check for an even distance between receiving antenna and disc
of the transmitter ring (→ figure 12 »C«). The distance should be 6 … 10 mm all
over the antenna surface. Adjust the position of the transmitter, if required.
3. RPM detector: The light barrier of the RPM detector (cylindrical bodies) must be
aligned to the center of the marker holes of the transmitter ring. Turn the RPM
detector to adjust its position (→ figure 12 »D«). Fix the position when finished.

● The wires on the transmitter ring should lie flat on the surface of the
shaft collar.
● These wires must not be crossed. They should form a triple loop when
connected.
2. Connect the two half-discs (antenna of the transmitter ring) with the supplied short
cable (→ figure 13 »C«).

1. Install a dial gauge in order to measure the axial position of the measuring rings
(→ figure 18 »A«).
2. Use the main engine turning gear to the shaft rotating slowly. Use a plastic hammer
to adjust the measuring rings until they are clearly aligned to the shaft rotation.
Maximum axial deviation: ±0.20 mm.
You may need to lift the dial gauge when passing the clamping lugs.
3. Tighten the clamping bolts until the measuring rings are no longer movable, then
tighten further by a turn of 1/3.
4. Remove the two spacer blocks from the measuring rings (dismantle the 4 screws
each and take off the metal block), and remove all the spacer sleeves.
Keep all the spacer blocks and sleeves (incl. bolts) for later use because
these parts are required when the measuring rings have to be removed
from the shaft. Recommendation: Put these parts into the transport box
of the string sensors when the string sensors have been installed, and
store the transport box in the ship’s stock.
5. Check again the axial position of the measuring ring where the dial gauge is;
readjust, if required (same procedure as for step 2). Then tighten the clamping bolt
of this measuring ring; tighten firmly a final time using an extension pipe (max.
30 cm/12 inch) on the wrench/spanner.
6. Use one of the spacer sleeves as a »gauge« for check whether the other measuring
ring has an even distance (→ figure 18 »B«). Check the entire ring area; tolerance:
+0.2 mm. If correction is required, use a plastic hammer to adjust this measuring
ring only.
7. When this measuring ring is adjusted, tighten its clamping lug in the same way as
for the first measuring ring.
8. Now tighten all the 8 lug bolts.
9. Secure all the lug bolts with the supplied split pins.
The string sensors are delivered in a transport box (→ page 13, figure 7).
Attachment
1. Please check the supplied MDS calibration card for the serial number of the string
sensors. The MDS 31 string sensor which is listed first is referred to as »string
sensor 1«, the second as »string sensor 2«.
2. Attach string sensor 1 to position 1:
a) The »fixed block« should be situated on the outer ring block; the »moving
block« on the inner ring block. Use the screws of the removed spacer blocks; do
not fix these screws, just insert the screws by hand.
b) Push the string sensor against the indicated arrow direction (to get maximum
clearance for spanning the knurled nut) and make sure that the string sensor
position is parallel to the measuring rings. Then tighten the screws by hand
only.
c) Now tighten the screws of the »fixed block«. Make a final fixing.
3. Attach string sensor 2 to position 2, using the same procedure as for string sensor 1,
however with the »fixed block« situated on the inner ring block, the »moving block«
situated on the outer ring block.
After the installation (or replacement) of the string sensors, both string
sensors need to be adjusted. This adjustment requires that the wiring on the
shaft is completed and the transmitter is operational. Please refer to §2.2
(→ page 30) for the procedure.

Requirements
● If this procedure is made for a completely installed shaft unit, it is required to
remove the protective cover from the measuring rings (→ page 31, §2.3).
● The procedure requires a frequency meter for a range of 0 … 1000 Hz to be
connected to the transducer box terminals.
● The transmitter must be operative (switch on its power supply).

disconnect the power supply from all devices which are to be connected.
This also applies to making plug connections.
Otherwise, the internal electronics could be damaged by an incorrect
electrical voltage. Although the mechanical coding prevents that wrong
counterparts can fully be connected, it does not prevent the electrical
contact of some plug contacts when the wrong plug is tried.

Devices whose internal electric circuits are equipped with coils or windings
with iron core can produce a countervoltage which can be very much higher
than the operating voltage. Such devices are, for example, electrical bells,
relays, electrical motors. The countervoltage can immediately destroy an
internal EMI filter. A defective EMI filter can short-circuit the signal
connection to ground (GND).

4. Press ESC when it is time to finish the speed trial measurement.
The main menu will be shown.
5. Call up the history menu 8 to see the results.
main 8: history 8 9
Requirements
The procedure requires that the propeller shaft is driven continuously by main engine
turning gear, for at least 10 revolutions both in »ahead« and »astern« direction
respectively. You need to know the turning time of the shaft when it is driven by the
turning gear.
The turning time is specific for each vessel series. If the MDS system had
been installed by a SICK MAIHAK technician, it will have been measured
and programmed during the system set-up. Otherwise please measure the
time for one turning gear revolution; just use your watch.
This procedure can only be carried out under harbour conditions. During the
procedure, the propeller shaft must be free of any other physical influences
or forces, like torque caused by water flow against the propeller. Please
make sure there is no strong water flow or water fluctuations around your
ship, like tide flow or water turbulence caused by other ships.
Procedure
1. Call up the main menu (→ page 49, §5.2)
2. Call up zero point. 3
3. If the correct turning time (shaft rotation speed) has not been set yet:
a) Call up turning time. 1
b) Enter the time the shaft takes for 1 revolution (allowable range: 100 … 2550
seconds).
For example:
To enter »125 seconds«, type in: 1 2 5
4. Let the shaft rotate continuously in »ahead« direction, driven by the turning gear.
The MDS control unit will now generate a maximum number of 20 measured
values. The measuring time depends on the turning time.
6. Wait until at least 10 measured values are displayed. It might be necessary to wait
for more than 10 measured values. Press ESC when the first and the tenth value of a
sequence of 10 measurements are similar.
Repeat the measurement for »astern« direction:
7. Let the shaft rotate continuously in »astern« direction, driven by the turning gear.
8. Call up measuring astern. 3
9. Observe and check the measurement in the same way as for ahead.
You could also enter a different zero point value, instead of confirming the
calculated average value. However, this is not recommended.
5.5 Parameters
The parameters menu displays some basic measuring parameters and allows you to
adjust these values according to customer’s requirements – see the following manual
sections for an explanation.

6. Enter the measured ampere value, in µA with 5 digits.
For example:
To enter »21.35 mA«, type in: 2 1 3 5 0
7. Now check the amperemeter reading again. If it is not exactly 20 mA, enter the
measured value again. Repeat this until the accuracy meets your requirements.
Please consider both the required accuracy and the real accuracy of the
amperemeter (for example, ±0.050 mA).
Requirements
You need to feed in a DC signal into the analog input which is to be adjusted. The signal
should be 19 … 20 mA, with an exactly known ampere value (±1 % or better). There
are two methods to produce this:
– Use a precision mA source which allows you to adjust the desired mA output.
– Use any stable/stabilized DC source which allows mA output adjustment (or use a
suitable resistor to adjust the current) and measure the real input current with an
precision amperemeter (same as for the analog output adjustment).

8 .2 Alarm check
If the »Heavy Run« and torque alarm outputs have been set up to be used, but are rarely
(or never) activated because your engine is running smoothly, it is a good idea to
periodically check these features. This is not only a test for the MDS 840 control unit,
but also for all the connected devices (wiring, lamps, etc.).
Call up the receiver test menu (→ page 67, §5.8) and select alarm outputs. Use the
displayed menu to manually switch the alarm outputs on and off, and check that the
system works correctly.
