TSX5 Shaft Power Meter Product Brochure

The Smarter Approach to Shaft Power Measurement Shaft power meters offer ship owners and managers a well proven, low cost and quick way to achieve efficiency gains. Improving ship operational efficiency through the monitoring of power usage creates a more sustainable operating mode that will result in reduced fuel consumption and carbon emissions. The measurement of shaft power necessitates the use of a power meter that accurately measures shaft torque. Through real time measurement of surface strain, shaft torque and power are calculated. The measurement of shaft power provides an early...

Reducing fouling of the hull and propeller is most probably the No.1 challenge facing the shipping industry, as it can increase fuel consumption and engine emissions by over 50%. With a TSX5 Shaft Power Meter fitted the effects of fouling can be spotted early and preventative action taken to limit its impact. It will also allow for the before and after effects of any anti fouling technologies, applied to the hull or propeller, to be monitored. The TSX5 is also a critical hardware component for any ship performance monitoring system. When combined with fuel consumption and the ship’s speed,...

EEXI Compliance On 17 June 2021, the International Maritime Organisation (IMO) adopted amendments to MARPOL Annex VI at MEPC 76, introducing regulations 23 and 25 – the the Energy Efficiency Existing Ship Index (EEXI), which are the first steps for the shipping industry to move towards its target of a 50% reduction in carbon emissions by 2050. The key aspect of the regulations is that all existing ships must achieve a required EEXI score, with the target score dependent on the type of ship. The initial work to be carried out by each ship is to calculate it’s attained EEXI score, in...

TSX5 Operation The TSX5 system utilizes strain gauge technology applied to the surface of the intermediate shaft. The engine and gearbox apply torque to the shaft, whilst resistance from the propeller applies drag. The combination of torque and resistance twists the shaft, causing the strain gauge to deform and change its electrical resistance, from which a measurement of strain is calculated. The change in resistance from the strain gauge is measured by the rotor board unit, which is housed in the rotor ring clamped to the shaft. The rotor ring also protects the strain gauge from damage...
