Learn More About Marine Industrial Computers

Marine industrial computers are used for applications such as onboard monitoring, vessel communications, navigation support, surveillance, control systems, and wider marine infrastructure tasks. They help provide dependable computing in shipboard and offshore environments.

A marine industrial computer is designed for the operating conditions found on vessels and offshore installations, where standard office PCs may struggle with vibration, salt-laden air, humidity, temperature variation, electrical interference and continuous operation.

If the computer is installed on a vessel’s bridge, or forms part of a navigation, communications, monitoring or safety-related system, IEC 60945 certification may be required. For classed vessels, additional type approval requirements may also apply from classification societies such as DNV or other relevant bodies. Choosing a marine-approved computer helps ensure the system is suitable for the vessel, installation location and regulatory requirements of the project.

Marine computer certifications and type approvals are designed to show that equipment can operate reliably in maritime conditions. Depending on the standard or approval body, testing may include mechanical tests such as vibration and shock, EMC testing for emissions and immunity, climatic tests such as dry heat, low temperature and humidity, and corrosion-related testing such as salt mist or salt spray.

The exact test criteria depend on the certification required, the installation location and the role of the computer onboard the vessel. For example, bridge-mounted, navigation, communications, monitoring and control equipment may be assessed differently from equipment installed in less critical areas.

Key considerations include the installation environment, available space, mounting requirements, connectivity, processor performance, and the needs of the application itself. Depending on the project, it may also be important to consider environmental protection, long-term reliability, and compatibility with other onboard systems.

Typical considerations include available installation space, performance needs, connectivity, mounting requirements, and how the system will integrate with other onboard technologies. The best option depends on both the vessel environment and the intended application.
