Shaft Power Meter
The XT-SPM Shaft Power Meter is a marine propulsion monitoring system designed to provide real-time measurement of shaft power, shaft RPM, torsion, and thrust. Installed directly on the vessel's intermediate shaft, the system utilizes non-intrusive sensing technology to accurately monitor propulsion performance without requiring modifications to the shaft structure.
Description
The XT-SPM continuously collects propulsion data and transmits it wirelessly to the vessel's monitoring and control systems, enabling operators to assess engine performance, propulsion efficiency, and operating conditions in real time. The system supports performance analysis, fuel efficiency initiatives, and condition-based monitoring by providing accurate and reliable propulsion data for onboard decision-making. Designed for integration with vessel automation, monitoring, and energy management systems, the XT-SPM delivers valuable operational insights for both newbuild and retrofit installations.
