Overview

Safely on the right course

The MARSIC300 ship emissions measuring device from SICK is a customized solution for reliably measuring emissions on ships according to MARPOL Annex VI and IMO MEPC. The MARSIC300 is type-approved for this application by well-known classification organizations. The MARSIC300 measures both SO_x and CO₂ upstream and downstream of the scrubbers, and NO_x upstream and downstream of SCR (selective catalytic reduction) plants.

An experienced manufacturer of emissions measurement technology, SICK is offering the MARSIC300 as a compact complete system. Designed to be used on ships, the measuring device impresses with extremely low maintenance costs and modules that are easy to replace.

Advantages

Intelligent solutions for the shipping industry

As one of the proven suppliers in onshore emissions measurement technology, SICK has decades of experience in the development of gas analyzers and emissions measurement. In addition, SICK offers a comprehensive portfolio of on-board measurement systems and has many years of experience in maritime applications. The MARSIC300 ship emission measuring device therefore consists of proven technology, which has demonstrated its quality and reliability a thousand times over. SICK has installed a large number of ship emissions measuring devices and has established itself as a reliable manufacturer in the area of maritime emission monitoring.

For clean air on the high seas

The MARSIC300 measures CO₂ emissions from combustion processes and ship engines. The MARSIC300 also measures methane gas, which damages the world’s climate. Methane is produced during incomplete combustion of LNG in engines. The sensors from SICK send the measured values from on board directly to the cloud and show the corresponding data, e.g. energy efficiency, in a transparent manner. With the MARSIC300, the ship emission measuring device from SICK, you can sail the seas with DNV certification and the knowledge that the measured values are reliably accessible in maritime emission control areas. You can also rest assured that device maintenance and calibration costs will stay low in the long term.

Efficient solution that reduces costs
The MARSIC300 boasts minimal maintenance requirements, has almost no wear and tear parts or moving parts and can be calibrated using internal calibration filters.

The MARSIC300 pays for itself quickly
The MARSIC300 quickly pays for itself in combination with modern exhaust gas purification systems, as it can save costs depending on the type of fuel.

More transparency on the world’s oceans Internet use on the high seas enables the MARSIC300 to continuously send data to cloud-based solutions. This means that the ship operator can monitor what the emission measurement device is currently measuring at sea.

SICK Maritime Suite: More transparency on the world’s oceans

Benefit from the experience of a leading manufacturer in maritime emission monitoring! Using the digital services in the SICK Maritime Suite such as the MARtracker, the live data of the emission monitoring device of the ship can be combined with other data such as the position of the ship as well as ECA and local emission regulations. The result: Tailored status messages, more transparency over your entire fleet, and an optimization of operating costs.

On a safe course with the right service

With its extensive network of employees, SICK makes sure that services and spare parts are available. To satisfy its international demand, SICK has established several regional maritime service hubs to coordinate and actively support its service activities. In addition, training centers enable the company to pass on its detailed knowledge about the products and their peripherals to customers. Qualified staff from SICK and its partners are ready to serve you along the main international shipping routes. The staff provides technical support, solves problems, helps with preventive maintenance and provides other services for measurement technology.

MARITIME SERVICES from SICK – on site where you need us

We help you help yourself
SICK supports you with regular maintenance with its network of service experts. And with proper training, customers can perform common maintenance activities on their own. If the ship has a changing crew, e-learning is a good way to explain the maintenance tasks that need to be performed. As often as you want, regardless of the time or location.

More transparency on the world’s oceans In the cloud-based SICK AssetHub, a web service for SICK customers, various SICK sensors can be mapped out and the data from the devices is displayed promptly. This means that the ship operator can monitor what the device is currently measuring at sea. In the event of a problem, such as a clogged filter, the crew as well as the shipping company receives a notification and can initiate appropriate measures.

International availability for high efficiency
Extended warranty, SICK Remote Service, 24-hour help desk, maintenance, availability guarantees and other modular services can be individually combined on request.
