Mampaeyintelligent Multi Safety Link

The Mampaey intelligentMulti Safety Link is a next-generation LNG safety

communication link. It features unique new technologies and advanced

functionalities, and complies with global communication standards in the LNG

market. Due to strict regulations regarding fuel emission levels, marine transportationis increasingly starting to use LNG, which is a clean fuel that also lowers operational

costs. This is resulting in further development and expansion of the LNG supply chain.

The redundant iMSL solution is a high-end ship-to-shore link system applicable for the global

LNG distribution market, including LNG carriers, FSRUs, FLNG, LNG regasication, and

liquefaction terminals. The Control Modules contain all the functions & intelligence required

to facilitate multiple safety links, such as pneumatic, vantage, Miyaki-Denki, bre-optic and

SIGTTO. Connecting both Control Modules through link loopback provides full functional

indoor pre-berth end-to-end testing capabilities on ship and shore installations.

FULL FUNCTIONAL END TO END TESTING & BACKUP

Combining a second iMSL Control Module with the Test Module enables customers to

perform a full functional pre-berth end-to-end test. The Control Module is capable of

dynamic near-reality simulation of communication between LNG terminals & LNG carriers.

This provides customers with advanced testing capabilities prior to LNG carrier berthing,

which greatly enhances functional end-to-end testing. Testing the correct functioning of all

critical ESD functions and voice communication systems can now be done entirely indoors

with the Mampaey iMSL. The test equipment is integrated in the SSL cabinet, reducing therisk of loss and defects and relegating heavy mobile test equipment to the past.

The iMSL solution is used for LNG bunker vessels & LNG bunker stations. It

comprises one Control Module that contains all the functions and intelligence required to

facilitate multiple safety links, including pneumatic, vantage, Miyaki-Denki, bre-optic and

SIGTTO. The Control Module can perform a self-test of both its hardware and software.

Loopback connectors also enable it to perform a health check on the communication

infrastructure, e.g. xed wiring and umbilicals. The iMSL solution has a Power Module that

provides a redundant power supply with an AC mains power input and an AC or DC backup

power input.

The iMSL Control Module includes an on-board computer that reinforces the graphical user interface

presented on an industrial capacitive touchscreen. The touchscreen (16:9 / 12.1 across) has a high

degree of brightness, high colour contrast, a ultra-wide viewing angle and a broad operation

temperature range to ensure that critical information is clearly displayed and visible in diverse

environmental conditions. The graphical user interface provides all the functionality required to allow

users to easily congure, activate and monitor the safety link.

iMSL Pneumatic Safety LinkThe iMSL facilitates an safety Link over a pneumatic connection.Together with the iMSL Pneumatic Module, this allows a fully automatic pneumatic link to be established.

Pneumatic link

The pneumatic link, which can be traced back to the early 1970s, is the oldest

safety link in existence. It involves an air-hose transmitting a ship-to-ship or

ship-to-shore signal. A pressurised hose indicates a safe system, while a

depressurised hose can indicate either an unsafe situation or a disconnected hose.

In current implementations, the pneumatic link is often used as a backup link for

either electric or bre-optic links.

The Mampaey iMSL combines this 40-year-old technology with state-of-the-art

21st-century electronics and SIL2 design and implementation. The PneumaticSafety Link has been designed to meet all SIGTTO specications and is compatible

with all existing pneumatic links currently installed.

neumatic module

he iMSL Pneumatic Module uses two Ex transducers to monitor both

put and umbilical pressure. These types of pressure are continuously

onitored and displayed in the iMSL GUI. In the event of a pressure drop

elow the trip level, the iMSL will signal its local Central Control Room that

ere has been an ESD trip. The iMSL can send an ESD by de-powering its

ternal Ex solenoid. This results in a pressure drop which is detected by

e remote party.

n all-weather, stainless steel, marine-coated pneumatic reel will be

stalled alongside the Pneumatic Module.

iMSL Electrical Safety LinkThe iMSL facilitates an safety link over an electricalconnection as specied by SIGTTO

Electrical link

The electrical link was introduced in the late 1980s to respond to the recognised

limitations of the pneumatic link and the need for additional information during the LNG

cargo transfer operation. Loading arm information, Mooring Load Monitoring data,

telephony and additional control signals were added to the electrical link to make it a

complete and versatile communication link. The iMSL Electrical link was designed to meet

SIGTTO requirements, is fully compatible with existing ship-to-shore link installations and

the design is based on SIL2. All ESD signals transmitted over the iMSL Electric Link are

intrinsically safe. An electrical loopback path allows for a full functional pre-berth test.

Automatic Pin Congurator

To allow LNG carriers to adapt to the diversity of pin congurations in the eld, the iMSL

has an ingenious way of automatically switching its output and input pins on the 37-way

Vantage Technology connector. The iMSL Automatic Pin Congurator function allows the

operator to choose a predened or user-dened pin layout which will adjust the pin layout

accordingly within seconds, all without the aid of a screwdriver or tools.

Fibre-optic link

In the 1990s, the Japanese company Furukawa launched a new type of safety link: the

bre-optic link. The specications for this link are now part of the SIGTTO specications.

The iMSL system meets these requirements and is fully compatible with any existing

Furukawa or equivalent compatible ship-to-shore link system. A bre-optic loopback pathallows for a full functional pre-berth test. The bre-optic link functionality is a standard

feature in the iMSL module and does not require any additional hardware.

A six-core bre allows the transmission of ESD signals, Mooring Load Monitoring

information and telephony. The bre-optic signal strength is constantly monitored and

displayed on the iMSL GUI. This enables the operator to easily detect any contamination on

the bre-optical ferrules themselves.

iMSL Voice CommunicationThe iMSL facilitates the Mampaey Hotphone, private and

public line voice communication for the Vantage / Miyaki-

Denki electrical link and bre-optic link.

Voice Communication Recording

The iMSL Control Module is capable of recording all voice communications

managed by the Control Module. These recordings can afterwards be used for

reviewing, analysis or training purposes.

This includes:

Fully automated voice communication recording function.

Telephone conversations are stored as les, separately identied and easily

traceable.

Simultaneous recording of multiple telephone conversations, including the

Hotphone channel.

Export of voice recordings to portable data storage (e.g. a USB memory stick).

Voice recordings are can be replayed with any standard media player on any

computer.

Automatic voice recording clean up function.

Mampaey Hotphone

The Mampaey Hotphone is a weather-resistant, heavy-duty wall or

desktop-mounted phone system built to withstand severe environmental

conditions. The dial-less Hotphone is used with LNG ship-to-shore links and

is fully compatible with the now obsolete Iwatsu TS3 unit used on Furukawa

ship-to-shore communications systems. The Hotphone is compatible with all

Furukawa systems and all other Furukawa-compatible systems. It can operate

in both private line mode and hotline (Iwatsu) mode.
