Emergency Shutdown System (ESD)
The XT-USSL-ESD-T/N Universal Linked Emergency Shutdown System is an advanced marine safety solution developed by XTronica AS for tanker, chemical tanker, LPG, LNG, and LNG-fueled vessels. The system provides synchronized emergency shutdown control between ship-to-shore and ship-to-ship transfer operations, ensuring safe cargo handling and bunkering activities while minimizing operational risks.
Monitoring and Automation
Models
| Model | Description |
|---|---|
| XT-USSL-ESD-T | The terminal unit installed on the shore facility or fixed terminal infrastructure. It interfaces directly with the terminal emergency shutdown and process control safety systems. |
| XT-USSL-ESD-N | The vessel unit installed on board the ship, tanker, or bunkering vessel. It provides seamless bi-directional emergency shutdown communication with the connected shore or ship counterpart. |
Additional Communication Functions
- 1. The system can support: Hotline voice communication, Data exchange between connected parties, Operational status sharing, Diagnostic information transfer
- 2. Available through: 37-way electric cable, 2-core fiber optic cable, 6-core fiber optic cable
- 3. Compliance & standards: Designed to support compliance with OCIMF (Oil Companies International Marine Forum), SIGTTO (Society of International Gas Tanker and Terminal Operators), SGMF (Society for Gas as a Marine Fuel), IGC Code, IGF Code, and marine industry ship/shore ESD recommendations
