Vigilant - Martek's New Smoke Monitoring System - Is Discussed in Motorship


Vigilant - Funnel Smoke Monitoring System
Martek Marine has recently launched Vigilant- a ship's funnel smoke monitoring system that measures the density of the smoke being emitted by a vessel to prove compliance with new stringent regional rules against ships exhausting black smoke within sight of shore.

The system uses a transmitter and a receiver on either side of the ship's funnel to measure the density of the smoke and grade the results in terms of the Ringelmann Scale.
