monitoring program and will now be fitted to a total of seven of their major cruise ships. MetalSCAN is installed on the return oil lubrication line of each pod bearing to monitor the bearing health. MetalSCAN continuously monitors the oil flow and detects metallic particles carried within the oil system, which are telltale signs of hidden damage. The system has proven itself to be effective in triggering maintenance alerts long before failure occurs. The NCL sale marks a total of 31 major cruise line ships installed with MetalSCAN for propulsion pod monitoring, worldwide.

KRAL Volumeter� - Precise Fuel Consumption Measurement for Diesel Engines.
Reduce fuel costs, prevent engine damage and collect data for R&D, service and maintenance.
KRAL fuel consumption measurement (FCM) will reduce fuel costs and allow engine performance monitoring. In multiple engine installations, KRAL�s FCM-system indicates the fuel consumption of each individual engine on a central display. Multiple communications like Modbus and CAN-Bus are available. Engine manufacturers use the KRAL FCM on R&D and acceptance test stands. IPP�s want to check the specific fuel consumption during commissioning. Ship owners and engineers adjust their engine load to minimize fuel consumption. Railway companies store fuel consumption data and send via GSM. To prevent engine damage, KRAL�s onboard monitoring indicates engine conditions by displaying temperatures, circulation rates, supply and return fuel flows. With KRAL measurement software, FCM can be stored in a portable data acquisition PC. Visit us at www.kral-usa.com or contact us directly.
