SYSTEMS SIGNALLING THE APPEARANCE OF WATER IN SHIP COMPARTMENTS

SISTEMY SIGNALIZATSII POYAVLENIYA VODY V OTSEKAKH SUDNA

The system which signals the appearance of water in compartments is a critical ship system, especially on hydrofoils. Its importance can be attributed to the small size of the crew aboard hydrofoils which does not permit much attention to be devoted to on-the-spot inspection of compartments. The signaling system consists of a sensor which reacts to the appearance of water in compartments, connecting wires, a relay, and signaling devices.
