Offshore Systems’ S-VDR 5000 is a Simplified Voyage Data Recorder (S-VDR) that leverages the company’s years of proven experience interfacing with existing bridge and navigational sensors.
S-VDR 5000 includes 2GB of storage in the hardened capsule and an 80GB hard drive in the processor. It can support up to six microphones with waterproof microphones as an option.
The S-VDR 5000 is type approved by Bundesamt fϋr Seeschiffahrt & Hydrographie (BSH).
ECPINS® / S-VDR 5000
The ECPINS/S-VDR 5000 is a powerful, fully integrated ECDIS and Simplified Voyage Data Recorder system combining the recording capabilities of an S-VDR (S-VDR 5000) with the operational efficiency and accident prevention capabilities of ECDIS (ECPINS 5000).
This integration results in ECDIS screenshots being recorded every few seconds alongside the required S-VDR data.
The added benefit of ECDIS not only adds a further dimension to accident investigations, but also makes the S-VDR playback a powerful training tool for analyzing best navigation practices. Shipping companies can now take advantage of the experience of a Master who successfully navigates a tough passage by replaying the audio, sensor data and detailed ECDIS information.
