DanEI-300T Electronic Inclinometer System
The DanEI-300T Electronic Inclinometer is an advanced heel and pitch measuring system aimed for (escort) tugboats to provide the crew with alert warnings and alarms during operation to prevent potential accidents. The DanEI-300T systems consist of a sensor unit and a display unit. The sensor includes a very advanced gyro MEMS component, a very advanced accelerometer MEMS component as well as a powerful microcontroller, and through complex algorithms, the so-called “6 degrees of freedom” (6 D-o-F) are all accurately calculated. In other words, the 3 rotation parameters (pitch, heel, yaw) and the 3 acceleration parameters (surge, sway, heave) can be calculated.
These data are sent from the sensor to the display unit, from which they can be retrieved either via serial or Ethernet (marine) interface and in standard NMEA format. The device which is not sensitive to horizontal and vertical accelerations.
The Electronic Inclinometer displays:
GREEN: NORMAL Zone for steady (average) heel / Attention Required
AMBER/YELLOW: CAUTIONARY Zone for max. dynamic (momentary) heel / Imminent Response Required.
RED: CRITICAL Exceeds safe limits of stability / Reduce Heel Immediately.
The range of each zone can easily be entered and adjusted via the keypad on the front of the display.

Daniamant Responds To New IMO Regulations With The DanEI-300T Electronic Inclinometer
December 17, 2021
The IMO is making it a mandatory carriage requirement for new-build container vessels and dry-bulk carriers to have electronic inclinometers on board. The new IMO regulation is expected to be in force by early 2024 and is anticipated to require two sets of electronic inclinometers on each vessel for redundancy. The electronic inclinometer will need to be interfaced with the mandatory Voyage Data Recorder (VDR), to record the vessel’s heel and roll.
Approvals
Kevin Rough, CEO at Daniamant, says, “Keeping people safe while they navigate our waters is what drives us at Daniamant, and we continuously strive to create products that not only meet standards but exceed them. The new IMO mandate will come into force by 2024, so it’s vital that the industry stays ahead of the curve and starts implementing the requirements as soon as it can. We will work closely with our partners to make sure they are meeting the new requirements.”
