SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
This section provides detailed information about the system to ensure safe and efficient operations.
3.1
System overview
The system illustrated is an example of what a Steering gear system with a single rudder
installation can contain.
If the installation contains two Steering gears, the systems will include two separated and
independent systems with both independent and synchronized steering of the rudders.
Note
The Steering gear control system can be delivered with different control stations and alarm system.

3.2.2
Alarm system
The AS02 alarm system is designed to meet the regulations of the classification societies,
SOLAS and IMO for a ships steering gear system. One alarm system AS02 can monitor two
pumps.

Function
Auto-transformer
If it is necessary to reduce
the starting current of a
motor due to supply
limitation, use star/delta
starting. (Start current = 1.3
2.6*In).
Each Steering gear are supplied with two independent pump units each driven by an electric motor.
The motor controller for the electric motor on each pump unit has separate and independent supply
from the switch boards. The installation can contain one or two Steering gears.
The supply for the control system is powered from corresponding motor controller. The two
systems are therefore both hydraulically and electrically separate and independent.
The pump control card can be used as a separate control system or together with Aux. steering
unit. The pump control card can be interfaced to different steering modes and external equipment.

MAINTENANCE
This chapter describes all relevant maintenance procedures and activities to be carried out by the
crew.
Warning
Changes or modifications to the system not expressly approved by Rolls-Royce
Marine could void the warranty or the user's ability to operate the equipment.
The following warnings and cautions are for your safety, for the prevention of injury from electric
shock and for a safe operation of the equipment. Also see chapter 2.
While performing maintenance tasks, always position the equipment (and yourself) on a stable
and safe surface.
Ensure that all accessible cables cannot be walked on, tripped over or damaged by
transportable items.
If a device is damaged or fails to function correctly, disconnect it from the power source. Refer
to the system drawings to locate the nearest fuse/circuit breaker, see chapter 12 Design
Drawings.
Do not attempt to repair any sub-component yourself consult a qualified Rolls-Royce service
technician.
A serious electrical shock hazard exists within the covers of some components (i.e. displays)
and on marked locations inside the cabinets (marked with 220 VAC or 24 VDC).
Electrostatic Discharge
CAUTION!
It is very important that you are connected to ground before touching any electronic components or
printed circuit boards.
The life span of electronics can be affected by damage caused by electrostatic discharge. This can
happen if a charged tool or person touches a component.
Therefore it is very important that all tools and personnel are discharged by touching a grounded
point before the printed circuit board or any of the components are touched. It is equally important
to discharge the package with the new component before opening it.
A person walking on a carpet can be charged with up to fifteen thousand volt (15000 V). In worst
case, some sensitive components can be destroyed when discharged with about 100 V.

Maintenance overview
Rolls-Royce Steering Gears are designed to maintain safe operation with a minimum of
maintenance. However, to avoid unexpected stops, we will emphasize the importance to maintain
the installation on regular basis.
In connection with scheduled class survey, general overhaul or repair we advise to use engineers
from our factory or factory trained engineers from our service representatives in different countries.
This will limit the time of repair to a minimum and ensure continuous safe operation.
