The Unitest Full Mission Engine Room Simulator (FMEC)
has been based on typical solutions, being presently
used in medium-sized engine rooms - two medium-speed
diesel ME and three diesel engine generators.
The propulsion system includes two ME, driving through
reduction gear the controllable pitch propeller (CPP).
Propeller's revolutions and pitch are controlled simultaneously.
The simulator is divided into the following modules:
- ME propulsion
- Fuel system
- Cooling system
- Lubricating system
- Compressed Air system
- Power plant
- Bilge and ballast system
- Steering gear
- Fire fighting system
- Sanitary water system
- Refrigerating system

This simulator is designated for training students of maritime
academies as well as for different types of marine vocational
training centres. The simulator has universal features and
may be used both for training merchant and navy fleet crew.
The main purpose of the simulator is the practical preparation
of the trainee for engine room operation, and more particularly:
- familiarization with the basic engine room installation
(compressed air system, fresh and sea water cooling system,
lubricating and fuel oil system, gear and CPP hydraulic system);
- acknowledgment with main engines and auxiliary equipment
starting procedure;
- propulsion system manoeuvring (main engines - reduction
gear - CPP)

The simulator can be run in two modes:
- normal
- supervised
In normal mode all the simulator options are available (setup,
checklist, freeze simulator and alarm log).
In supervised mode setup, checklist, freeze simulator and
alarm log are not available. It's a special mode for student's
competency evaluation.
The software allows for the simulation of opening/closing
of basic valves and auxiliary equipment operation in engine
room installations. The software also generates the main engine
room's sound.

The installation of the simulator's software is simple, it
is performed by the user and does not require any manufacturer's
installation services.
Additionally, the simulator's user also receives software
for testing the functioning of the console's electronic system.
The software also enables to set up engine room resources
and load or save setups.
Instructor station software allows for:
- system set-up (liquid levels in the tanks and pressure setting)
- freeze simulator
- manoeuvring command
Instructor station is connected by phone with the trainee
station.
Software of instructor's station (in multi-station version
only) enables also the observation of the following trainee's
station indications:
- systems alarm
- shaft revolution
- alarm log

This simulator has been developed in compliance with:
- STCW Code: Section A-1/12 and Section B-1/12.
- ISM Code: Section 6 and Section 8.
