YACHTS

Propulsion machinery: The central feature of Wärtsilä’s comprehensive portfolio of world-class main and auxiliary engines, gears, propellers, seals, bearings and stern tubes, and waterjets is efficiency. Through integrating these individual products into a single, fully optimised propulsion system, we can reduce operating costs significantly. Wärtsilä helps to lower maintenance costs through its broad scope of monitoring, analysis, and condition-based service systems. By knowing the actual condition of the machinery, and through accurately predicting where and when overhauls will be required, the timing of maintenance can be optimised to keep downtime to an absolute mini­mum.

Electric propulsion system: Wärtsilä offers the most economical drive solution for propulsion power onboard your yacht, installing synchronous, asynchronous or induction motors fed by LCI or PWM frequency converter technology to increase efficiency and lower the opera­tional costs. The advantages also include low noise and reduced vibration, notably improved efficiency in partial propulsion power mode, plus high reliability, availability and redundancy, with less emissions and reduced wear and tear.

Hybrid energy storage systems: By combining different power sources with energy storage devices, significant efficiency improvements can be achieved, for example through running the engines at optimal load and absorbing many of the load fluctuations using batteries. With the latest in inductive charging technology, Wärtsilä offers total plug-in solutions.

Power distribution: Wärtsilä offers low and medium voltage systems and UPS systems for uninterrupted, reli­able power distribution, as well as shore connection systems adapted to customer needs. The Wärtsilä GPM500 integrated system has been developed to protect and control power supply systems. A power management function is also available. The protection system can be operated independently or in combination with other systems via data bus. Interfaces to automation and other control systems can be provided.

Integrated bridge control systems: The Wärtsilä NA­COS Platinum arrangement uniquely combines the control for navigation, automation, dynamic positioning, as well as power and propulsion into a single integrated system. This allows the vessel to be navigated, controlled, and monitored from various onboard locations. The truly mul­ti-functional operator stations enable unequalled flexibility and convenience. We offer the latest innovations in bridge technology, including 3D sonar, night vision and tender tracking to fully meet your specific needs.

Safety and security: Wärtsilä has the expertise and experience to design and integrate comprehensive safety and security systems that meet increasingly stringent regulations. Wärtsilä also offers telephone and paging systems, smoke detection, general and fire alarm systems, as well as onboard safety monitoring. Our fully integrated security systems are designed to ensure your family, guests and crew feel protected at all times. We offer onboard intruder alerts, thermal imaging cameras, fast track radars, diver detection sonars and remotely operated vehicles to ensure the vessel and its underwater hull is safe and secure.

AV & IT systems: We integrate dedicated Audio and Video Systems with the IT network to maximise the experience of our clients. To merge complex technology seamlessly into the yacht is our job as an system integrator. Our systems are simple to operate, reliable and enjoyable to use for the owner and his guests. The product scope also includes ship-wide systems, such as SAT TV reception and head end distribution. Our goal is always to exceed the expectations of our customers.
