Product Introduction

The NORCONTROL SAU 8810 Signal Acquisition Unit (SAU 8810) is a distributed remote input/output module used in Norcontrol marine automation systems to collect, process, and transmit field signals from onboard machinery to the vessel's central automation network.

Installed throughout the engine room and machinery spaces, the SAU 8810 continuously acquires digital and analog signals from sensors, switches, transmitters, and alarm contacts. These signals are transferred to the central monitoring system, allowing engineers to monitor equipment status, receive alarms, and control critical shipboard systems in real time.

SM MARINE SERVICE™ supplies New, Used, Refurbished, and Fully Tested NORCONTROL SAU 8810 Signal Acquisition Units, along with repair services, spare parts, calibration, and worldwide technical support.

What Is the NORCONTROL SAU 8810?

The SAU 8810 acts as a remote signal concentrator within the ship's Integrated Automation System (IAS). Instead of running hundreds of field cables directly to the control room, machinery signals are connected locally to the SAU 8810, which digitizes the information and transmits it through the automation communication network.

The unit gathers data from:

  • Pressure transmitters
  • Temperature sensors
  • Tank level switches
  • Flow switches
  • Valve position indicators
  • Pump status contacts
  • Main engine sensors
  • Auxiliary engine monitoring points
  • Boiler alarms
  • Steering gear alarms
  • Fire detection interfaces
  • Machinery protection systems

Main Features

  • Distributed Remote I/O architecture
  • Digital signal acquisition
  • Analog signal acquisition
  • Real-time alarm monitoring
  • High-speed communication with IAS
  • Multiple input channels
  • LED channel status indicators
  • Front panel diagnostics
  • Easy channel configuration
  • Industrial marine design
  • Reliable continuous operation
  • Modular maintenance
  • Built-in communication diagnostics
  • Long service life

Main Components

A typical NORCONTROL SAU 8810 includes:

  • CPU Controller Board
  • Analog Input Modules
  • Digital Input Modules
  • Communication Interface Board
  • Power Supply Module
  • Signal Conditioning Circuit
  • Channel Indicator LEDs
  • Configuration Panel
  • Diagnostic Display
  • Terminal Blocks

Working Principle

The SAU 8810 continuously scans connected field devices throughout the vessel. It converts analog and digital signals into automation data and sends this information to the central Norcontrol Automation System.

When a monitored parameter exceeds a preset limit, the SAU immediately reports the alarm to the central operator stations, alarm panels, printers, and engine control consoles, allowing engineers to respond quickly to abnormal operating conditions.
