Enhancing Control:
How does the EDIT ECO 8 ShaPoLi System works?

Measures, Monitors, and Records

The ECO 8 ShaPoLi system from EDIT Automation serves as a versatile instrument that measures, monitors, and records actual shaft power, triggering an alarm if it surpasses the prescribed EEXI power limit. This alarm prompts manual adjustments to ensure the vessel remains compliant with its EEXI requirements.

Signal transmission from the torque meter installed on the shaft to the input signal module of ECO 8 ShaPoLi facilitates comprehensive data recording.

The equipment is equipped with either a 3.5” LCD monitor (EDIT 99) or a 5.7” LCD monitor (EDIT 141).

When the shaft power exceeds the vessel's EEXI limit, both audio and visual alarms activate, alerting the Master to the power limit breach. The visual EEXI limitation indicator remains active, even if the override button is pressed, until the vessel's power falls below the EEXI limit.

The Override Function allows users to temporarily operate the propeller above the shaft power limit during specific situations such as adverse weather conditions, piracy threats, or man overboard scenarios.
