Product Introduction

The BMS-2000 Engine Control System is an advanced electronic remote control and automation system developed by Mitsui Zosen Systems Research Inc. (MSR) for controlling large marine main engines from the bridge, Engine Control Room (ECR), or local control station.

The system integrates engine maneuvering, speed control, fuel control, reversing logic, starting air sequencing, safety interlocks, shutdown functions, alarm monitoring, and communication with the vessel's automation network. It is designed to improve operational safety, engine response, fuel efficiency, and overall reliability.

The photos you provided show a complete BMS-2000 installation, including:

• Main Operator Display (HMI)
• Engine Control Panel
• Alarm & Indication Panel
• Telegraph Logger
• Electronic Control Rack / I/O Modules

These are key components of the complete BMS-2000 engine control package commonly found on commercial ocean-going vessels.

SM MARINE SERVICE™ supplies complete systems, individual modules, spare parts, repair services, testing, calibration, and worldwide technical support for BMS-2000 equipment.

What is the BMS-2000 Engine Control System?

The BMS-2000 is a distributed electronic control system that replaces traditional pneumatic or relay-based engine maneuvering systems.

It continuously receives commands from the bridge telegraph and engine control stations, processes operational logic, verifies engine safety conditions, and automatically controls:

• Engine Start
• Engine Stop
• Ahead/Astern Changeover
• Engine Speed
• Fuel Limitation
• Safety Shutdown Logic
• Slow Down Functions
• Starting Air Control
• Engine Status Monitoring
• Alarm Management

This automation significantly reduces operator workload while ensuring precise engine control under all operating conditions.
