ROLLS-ROYCE HELICON +BCP CONTROLLER

Product Overview

The ROLLS-ROYCE HELICON paired with BCP controller is a marine thruster and propulsion control unit engineered for vessel azimuth thruster and CPP propeller regulation, designed in accordance with DNV marine automation standard and ROLLS-ROYCE HELICON propulsion control system specification. Built for thruster pitch regulation, propulsion mode switching & redundant marine control processing, the controller withstands heavy vibration, salt mist and humid marine cabin environments, delivers stable continuous operation, and provides reliable thruster command transfer and machinery monitoring between bridge console and local thruster station for offshore vessels and merchant ships.

Featuring dual redundant processor, marine certified hardware & CAN bus communication interface. Both cabinet and local thruster panel mounting are supported, adapting to limited console space onboard ships and thruster control cabinets. The modular assembly allows separate replacement of HELICON core unit or BCP controller without full propulsion system shutdown, greatly reducing equipment downtime for service. Equipped with real-time status monitoring, fault alarm output & backup control logic, mature signal circuit prevents command loss and guarantees safe thruster operation during continuous duty.

For dependable thruster pitch regulation, propulsion mode switching & redundant marine control processing, this ROLLS-ROYCE assembly handles thruster angle adjustment, propeller pitch control and operating mode selection for azimuth thrusters and controllable pitch propellers. Reliable thruster pitch regulation, propulsion mode switching & redundant marine control processing, premium marine grade electronic components provide excellent resistance to salt spray and temperature fluctuation, extending service life in harsh marine working environments. Practical real-time status monitoring, fault alarm output & backup control logic, precise signal processing lowers control deviation during long-hour operation, ensuring accurate thruster response under variable sea conditions.

During continuous thruster pitch regulation, propulsion mode switching & redundant marine control processing, this integrated unit is widely fitted on offshore supply vessels, ferries and platform support vessels, also compatible with tunnel thruster and Azipull thruster propulsion systems. Stable thruster pitch regulation, propulsion mode switching & redundant marine control processing, mature ROLLS-ROYCE HELICON marine technology with easy spare parts replacement and convenient after-sales maintenance. Robust real-time status monitoring, fault alarm output & backup control logic, simplifies cabinet layout and reduces installation workload for marine retrofitting and vessel propulsion control overhaul projects.
