BWTS Training and Simulator
Hands-on training, e-learning and a portable BWTS simulator course.
Description
ERMA FIRST offers crew training that includes hands-on training, e-learning and a BWTS simulator. The simulator is a portable suitcase with two screens, switches, buttons and a PLC, on which BWTS operation and alarms are simulated and recovered by the trainee, accompanied by exercises to complete.
Trainees can change vessel operational parameters such as ballast pump flow rate, ballast tank filling sequence and level, and tank feed valve positions, then simulate the result on ballast operation and troubleshoot. They can also run the BWTS up to or beyond its operational limits, such as dirt load, salinity and turbidity.
