COMPANY PROFILE Devices, Systems, Monitoring and Control Systems for Ship Automation Our company’s founding stone was laid in 1977 with the establishment of the Engineering Firm Böning. In 1996, it became the Engineering Firm Böning GmbH, which was renamed to Böning Automationstechnologie GmbH & Co. KG in 2003. From the very beginning, the development and manufacture of electronic devices and systems for ship automation was a major focal point of all company activities. Originally rooted in commercial shipping, we have also been successfully active in the area of super and mega yachts since 1996....

By now, a staff of approximately 100, among them about 20 engineers in the area of development alone, are employed here in Ganderkesee in an area of nearly 4000 m² for office, production, and storage space. One of our responses to the economic crisis beginning in 2008 is our continued drive toward globalization. In this context, we point to branch offices in Brazil, Italy, and Croatia, as well as representatives and distribution partners. This allows us to better meet the demands for competent service and short routes, especially by shipping companies and yacht owners. One of our recipes for...

INTEGRATED ALARM, MONITORING AND CONTROL SYSTEM Integrated Alarm, Monitoring, and Control System In today’s maritime industry, ship crews handle a multitude of diverse systems. Our modern, integrated, and decentralized monitoring system monitors and controls the safe operation of a ship. The systems are visualized on several monitor pages for easy viewing and operation, e. g. ®® Graphic display of generators and propulsion engines ®® Display of power management system data ®® Tanks, fire system, bilge, service, and transfer pumps ®® Doors and hatches, bilge alarms ®® Navigation lanterns, lighting...

INTEGRATED ALARM, MONITORING AND CONTROL SYSTEM Configuration and Diagnostic Software AHD-DeviceConfig is a software tool for the uniform and complete system configuration of all Böning alarm, monitoring, and control systems. The configuration is generally based on a customer generated, project specific measuring points list. With our configuration tool AHD-DeviceConfig, our devices and systems can be configured over a network. Additionally, firmware updates can be executed and diagnostic information can be viewed. The tool AHD-MiniCAN is available for further reaching diagnostics options. With...

9 INTEGRATED ALARM, MONITORING AND CONTROL SYSTEM Visualization Examples Modern ships are equipped with numerous different systems that must be monitored and controlled. Our displays present the vessel’s data visually and logically on various pages. The ship crew simply navigates the pages to view the data. Just like in your car: The display provides information about the engine’s state, using customary display systems. The engine data are displayed on round instruments and in numeric presentation. The bar graph presentation makes for easier reading of important engine parameters, thus allowing...

Fuel, water, oil, and other resources are carried along in tanks most of the time – as well as waste water and sewage. Bar graphs display the tanks’ filling levels states. The pumps can also be controlled from this page. Representation of the battery charge states. Overview of several important operational data. Representation of a bilge system. Navigation and signal lantern control and monitoring. INTEGRATED ALARM, MONITORING AND CONTROL SYSTEM Remote control for air conditioning systems, lights, and blinds on a single page, displayed in switchable deck views.

11 INTEGRATED ALARM, MONITORING AND CONTROL SYSTEM Conning page with navigational round instruments, such as air pressure, air temperature, humidity, COG, SOG, roll-pitch-yaw angle, and water depth. A centralized lighting control and monitoring system is not only convenient but also efficient. It is good to know what happens on board or in the close vicinity. Cameras in selected places monitor the corresponding areas. Comfortably controlled from the bridge, the display shows the desired images. Up to four fields can be viewed simultaneously on the display. Grouping of all alarms on a separate...

Visualizations for 8.8” Displays The following visualization examples have been designed for the AHD 880 series displays. The graphics were created with the AHD-DisplayDesigner software with which customer specific display pages can be created. INTEGRATED ALARM, MONITORING AND CONTROL SYSTEM Once the system is launched, the menu page with direct links to various pages in the system is displayed. General engine status information, e.g. engine speed, oil pressure, and cooling water temperature are displayed on the engine page. Visualization and control of generators and power supply. Tank contents...

13 INTEGRATED ALARM, MONITORING AND CONTROL SYSTEM At a single glance: all necessary information about position, cruising speed, and heading. Transferring fluids from one tank to another is easy and simple with a clearly organized visualization of the respective systems. Pump and valve control is designed based to the vessel’s requirements. Remote controlled cameras in selected ship locations contribute to increased safety on board. The CCTV system consists of several cameras whose images are shown on the display. Expansions, such as recording functions, are optionally available. For increased...

MARINE DISPLAYS AND COMPUTERS Displays and Panel Computers for Maritime Use All displays in our product line were designed with the goal of providing the best possible platform for graphic user interfaces. Our displays appeal through design, intuitive operation, and individualized visualization options. Data from external systems can be captured and processed with ports that meet the requirements of the modern maritime industry,. The monitors of the 11-series (10”, 15”, 19”, 24”) are especially suited as display devices for external sources. On the other hand, the panel PCs of the 12-series (15”,...
