Sensor solution for maritime applications

Novotechnik sensors are also used on the world’s oceans and major rivers. In the modern control systems of cruise ships, container ships, and ferries, they precisely measure the position of rudder blades and propellers, ensuring reliable control. They also perform measurement and control tasks in speed governors to ensure optimal propulsion and safe maneuverability. Thanks to their robust design and high measurement accuracy, the displacement and angle sensors operate reliably even under changing weather conditions, vibrations, and high loads—ideal for the maritime environment.

Potentiometric Angle Sensors, IP6500 Series
Special-purpose vessels, harbor tugs, cable-laying ships, and ferries rely on modern rudder propeller drives for high maneuverability. These drives can rotate 360 degrees, allowing thrust to be directed in any desired direction. In systems with multiple rudder propellers, the drives can be adjusted both synchronously and independently of one another. In combination with a satellite navigation system and an appropriate control system, this allows a ship to be held precisely in position even in rough seas.
