G&O Vibration Compensator

ECO Design

– Eliminating the source of vibration


Electrically driven moment compensator

Gertsen & Olufsen Vibration Compensators are world leaders in eliminating


and reducing unwanted vibrations of ships and diesel power plants, before it is
transferred into other elements.

Guide force moments, unbalanced moments, axial thrust, hull beam and pro-
peller induced vibrations are well-known issues related to low speed two stroke
diesel engine. Vibrations often lead to limited engine performance, cracking,
reduced mechanical strengths, abnormal wear on rotating machinery or failure
of electronic components.

The servo driven moment compensator reduces or even eliminates the source
of vibration due to the unique technology that creates an exact opposite direc-
tion with a counterforce identical to the force induced by the engine. The imbal-
ance is neutralized and no stress or vibrations will be transferred into engine
foundations and neighbouring structures.

KEY FEATURES INCLUDES


2nd order vibration compensator
Size of force can be adjusted from 0-100%, to get exact counterforce
required. Adjustment range 1 kg.
Direction of force can be adjusted from 0 to 360º, to get precise direction
of force +/- 1°.
2nd Order (m2V) Confirmation test
Unique frequency controller enables a fast and precise phase
synchronization. 3000 pulses per engine rpm.
