Ensuring safe and efficient operation
BEN Marine offers a range of electronic navigation equipment for maritime forces and merchant fleets.
The purpose of an electromagnetic speed log, or EM log, is to calculate the speed and the distance travelled through the water.
A repeater is a single unit product which displays all the data needed to operate the ship correctly (navigation, weather, weapon,…) .
Installed through the hull and in direct contact with the water, the electromagnetic sensor, sometimes called transducer, measures the speed through water (STW) of the ship. The sensor is held in place by a hull-fitting.
Flowmeters allow for measurement of liquid flows. Depending on applications, BEN Marine flowmeters come in two versions, either electromagnetic or ultrasonic.
Magnetic compasses for surface ships and navy divers.
