MCSMonitoring and Control System

The new SAM Electronics MCS Platinum series is

dedicated to improving ship operations via

increased safety and reliability. MCS Platinum

builds upon decades of design and engineering

expertise in the realms of ship alarm and control

systems. The result is the safest and most reliable

alarm and control system available, with unpre-

cedented levels of user-friendliness benefiting

experienced and novice crew members alike.

All alarms and control functions commonplace in

marine applications are supported by highly

standardized proven and tested modules, inclu-

ding; power management, anti-heeling, valve

control, pump control, advanced monitoring with

deviation alarms, exhaust gas temperatures and

much, much more. Continuous operations are

guaranteed with extensive online diagnostics,

support for onboard crew maintenance and

remote diagnosis. The unique user friendly

ergonomic design reduces the mental load for

operators, decreases risk of alarm misinterpreta-

tions and minimises necessary system handling.

User Centred DesignWith vast experience since the 1950’s of developing

ship automation and control systems, SAM

Electronics has partnered with leading interna-

tional research institutes to offer the most

innovative, user-friendly and comprehensive

family of navigation and automation technology.

The HMI is designed around the same operating

principles commonly found in well-known soft-

ware programs, thus improving operating system

familiarization speed to levels never seen before.

System ArchitectureA redundant LAN network tying together the

control and operator systems is at the heart of the

MCS Platinum system. The networked system is

highly scalable and offers superb flexibility to

optimize safety and redundancy as well as cost

effectiveness. Whether a small scale alarm system

or complete integration of navigation and

automation systems, the MCS Platinum will fit

perfectly onboard your vessel. All critical compo-

nents, IO and controllers utilized in the system are

the proprietary of SAM Electronics, thus ensuring

long-term through-life support and safeguarding

your investment.

Software PlatformPlatinum series offers solutions far beyond the

competition. Common navigation and automation

platform software allows the installation of any

application to any Platinum series workstation

i.e. run ECDIS navigational applications in the ECR

or provide MCS functionality to the bridge!

Standard Function BlocksMCS Platinum provides a vast library of function

blocks. With the standard function block, we

provide well-proven certified programming code

to control respective marine equipments. Our

library includes variants of valve controls,

generator controls, PID loop controllers and

much, much more. Through utilizing highly

standardized and well documented components,

system quality and reliability together with the

best value for money are all guaranteed.
