Parallel hybrid components
Triskel Marine Ltd, www.triskelmarine.co.uk, [email protected]
● Batteries
● Diesel engine
● Generator
● Electric motor
● Propeller
● Charging sources
● The energy management module
● ‘Glued’ together with communication
Creating data from silent sources
Triskel Marine Ltd, www.triskelmarine.co.uk , [email protected]
● Not every thing communicates
● Power sources, tank levels etc.
● Creating data for measurement and control
● V² sensors for voltage and temperature
● E² sensors for current, voltage and temperature
● SoC, iBC, Ah and boat energy flows
● Addressable switches provide power control
● Universal language of the Triskel ARGO bus
The engine language
Triskel Marine Ltd www.triskelmarine.co.uk [email protected]
● J1939 CAN bus and the ECU
● Valuable source of data
● Temperature ● Shaft RPM, direction and derived torque
● Fuel consumption
● Engine mode status
● Error conditions
The engine data
Triskel Marine Ltd www.triskelmarine.co.uk [email protected]
● Load efficiency control (RPM and fuel)
● Accurate fuel tank level and costs (fuel)
● “Regen” control (RPM and torque)
● Interpreting status and error codes
● C² device translates to the ARGO bus
● Autonomously act on critical data
● Cooling pumps and engine room fans
The boat language
Triskel Marine Ltd www.triskelmarine.co.uk [email protected]
● Existing equipment and sensors
● Mixed language communication
● NMEA2000
● NMEA0183
● Seatalk, Mastervolt and PC applications
● RS232/422, USB, CAN, current loop, pulses
● Translated and placed on the ARGO bus
The boat data
Triskel Marine Ltd www.triskelmarine.co.uk [email protected]
● GPS location, time, CoG, SoG
● Navigation details and voyage waypoints
● Wind, temperature, rain, humidity, pressure
● Sea temperature, current speed, depth
● Autopilot control
Energy management module
Triskel Marine Ltd www.triskelmarine.co.uk [email protected]
● Jason the energy management module
● Common format data on the ARGO bus
● Part of an agnostic modular design ethos
● Charging decisions
● Enhances efficiency
● Automation where possible
● Warnings, advice, alarms and safety
● Human interface
Battery charging
Triskel Marine Ltd www.triskelmarine.co.uk [email protected]
● Lead instead of Lithium are you mad?
● TPPL technology
● Bulk charge: Generator, shore supply
● The finishing charge issue
● Equalisation/conditioning charge
● Battery health
Controlling efficiency
Triskel Marine Ltd www.triskelmarine.co.uk [email protected]
● Improving engine efficiency
● Low speeds for electric propulsion
● Bulk charge loading control
● Lower total fuel usage
● Predicting events from the data
● Intelligent source selection
Talking to humans
Triskel Marine Ltd www.triskelmarine.co.uk [email protected]
● Jason’s window to the world
● Boat wide data in a neat interface
● Real time data display becomes a tool
● Boat power flow
● Customise the system with options
● Provide advice, warnings and alarms
● Control remote switches from anywhere
● Web browser based
● Use on a tablet, PC, phone any web device
Watchdog remote monitor
Triskel Marine Ltd www.triskelmarine.co.uk [email protected]
● Monitor the boat data remotely
● Mobile network or Iridium as telemetry
● Very low power to allow 24/7 operation
● Uses any web enabled device

● Secure access
● Control remote switches from anywhere
● Set limit alarms via email or SMS
Watchdog for the user
Triskel Marine Ltd www.triskelmarine.co.uk [email protected]
● Over winter monitor
● Check battery health and boat position
● Check weather/sea conditions at the boat
● Start up devices remotely (heating)
● Friends and family voyage tracker
● Burglar alarm
● Data can be updated in near real time
● Or you can be alerted to a preset event
Watchdog for business
Triskel Marine Ltd www.triskelmarine.co.uk [email protected]
● Chartered fleet monitor
● Boat builder customer service
● Monitor live boat data remotely
● Provides a two way diagnostic tool
● Access to historic logged data
