Accurate, real-time information on ship's motion and sea

current for safe anchoring, docking and berthing operations
The DS-30 is a precision Doppler Sonar designed to assist berthing manoeuvers of large or heavy
vessels such as ferries, container vessels, VLCC and other tankers, where large inertial forces
leave no room for error.
It provides accurate displays of ship's speed over a wide range from dead slow to maximum.
Speeds are detected relative to the ground or water both fore-aft and athwartship. This dead slow
capability is vital for precise docking of mammoth tankers to oil loading/unloading facilities, as well
as safe navigation in narrow channels or straits. Operation at high speed assists economical
cruising in open seas. The DS-30 complies with IMO Resolution A.478 (XII) and IEC specifications.

The 10" wide view-angle color LCD

presents a variety of information in
alphanumerics and graphics in three
display modes.... Speed, Berthing and Nav
Data. Operation is user-friendly by singlefunction touch keys and a trackball. The
standard system includes a display unit, a
separate control head and a transducer
fixed hull unit.
The compact, high-frequency transducer
measures ship's longitudinal (fore-aft)
speed and transverse (athwartship) speed,
as well as water speed and direction under
the hull. The transducer generates narrow
beams which reduce the effects of
cavitation. Emission of 3 beams greatly
reduces the effects of ship's pitch/roll. High
level of system accuracy is made possible
even in shallow waters by the use of
sophisticated new circuitry.
As an option, a state-of-the-art Laser Gyro
is available. It provides accurate
measurement of ship's transverse speed at
stern without the need to install another
transducer.
