WABCO Offers 8-page Brochure On Logicmaster™ Marine Propulsion Control Systems

The WABCO Fluid Power Division of American- Standard, Lexington, Ky., has published an eight-page brochure on Logicmaster™ pneumatic control systems for marine engines equipped with hydraulic clutch reverse gears.

WABCO Logicmaster controls incorporate the interlocks and protective circuits required for proper engine and reverse gear operation without relying on operator judgement to time or anticipate propulsion machinery functions.

Features listed in the publication are remote single-lever "fingertip" control; fast maneuvering; maximum protection for propulsion machinery; compact, space-saving components; and factory assembled and 100 percent operational tested.

Service proven interlocks and features of Logicmaster control systems are discussed along with different systems that may be selected, such as the LM1 standard system, LM2 standard with shaft brake control, and LM3 proportional reversing interlock system, designed for high-speed vessels like crewboats, which operate on reversal to utilize the engine compression to decelerate the propeller and shaft to idle before reverse clutch engagement. Operating sequences are also given for the systems.

All Logicmaster systems have the new HD- 2-FC Controlair® valve and the Logicmaster Control Unit, and the features of both are listed.

The brochure is well illustrated with photos and drawings, among which is a one-page drawing of a typical two-station, single-engine control system package with listed available options.
