Power Propulsion System : RMPS
RMPS is a CODAD type (Diesel & Diesel) propulsive system integrated on high-performance rafts in terms of acoustic discretion and resistance to attacks
Presentation
The RMPS is composed of a suspended raft for each shaftline, each raft integrating :
- 2 diesel engines
– 1 gearbox
Key features
- Acoustic discretion resulting from a low frequency suspension of the propulsion engines
– Sturdiness of a high integrated and optimised system
– Modular concept facilitating onboard integration
Associated with the Advanced Regulation System, RMPS moreover features :
– increased turning abilities with rough sea
– reduction of fuel consumption
