MAN PrimeServ introduces online service

As customer needs and equipment differ greatly, Online Service is modular by nature with customised solutions built up by the relevant PrimeServ division. MAN offers Online Service for low- and medium-speed engines, gensets and turbochargers, while turbo machines are already covered by irds (intelligent remote diagnostic system), a similar trend-monitoring system.

Online Service has been an integral part of all medium-speed engine management contracts since the beginning of 2010, and MAN has since decided to include Online Service as standard for all new engines’ warranty period free of charge.

MAN PrimeServ can establish an Online Service link by network connection over ethernet, continuous remote connection through a ship’s communication system, or by means of an on-demand remote connection, depending on the individual situation and desired financial outlay.

Online Service uses MAN’s proprietary engine diagnosis system, CoCoS EDS, to show all data at customer’s installation for the crew. CoCoS is an autonomous, Microsoft Windows based diagnosis tool that provides an overview of all engine operating data.
