Monitoring System for Hydrophore Tank Onboard Using Micro-controller

Abstract

In the maritime industry, the seamless operation of onboard systems is paramount for ensuring both safety and efficiency. Central to this operation is the hydrophore system, which maintains essential water pressure throughout the vessel. The reliable performance of hydrophore units hinges upon the careful management of water pressure, water level, and pH balance. However, ensuring optimal performance necessitates a robust monitoring system capable of integrating these parameters seamlessly. This paper proposes an integrated monitoring system tailored specifically for hydrophore tanks onboard ships. By leveraging real-time monitoring and automation alerts, this system not only enhances operational safety but also streamlines maintenance protocols, thereby ensuring uninterrupted vessel functionality. Through the implementation of such a monitoring system, maritime operators can effectively mitigate risks associated with hydrophore malfunction, ultimately safeguarding both crew and cargo while optimizing operational efficiency at sea.
