External Signal Interface

4-20mA analog signal to S-Link™

ESI-1 is an External Signal Interface to the S-link bus. It has two 4-20mA analogue inputs that control the bow and stern thrusters proportionally.

It can operate all E, SEP, SH and SAC series thrusters, including retractable thrusters and Automatic Main Switch (AMS).

The ESI-1 is typically used with autopilots with 4-20mA outputs and 3rd party control systems.

Properties

S-Link™ is a CAN-based control system used for communication between Sleipner products installed on a vessel.

A legacy that commits

We’ve lived and worked with the unruly sea for a hundred years. That’s why we develop important features that enables a boat to handle the sea better – that enable you to enjoy your boat, at anchor and at full speed. That is why you wanted a boat, isn’t it?
Beautiful engineering

The technology in our solutions is world-class. We know, because we’ve developed it ourselves, just as we manufacture every solution, and follow them until their fixed to a hull, ourselves. This meticulous attention to detail is why your day out always will be better with a Sleipner aboard.
Worldwide service

We take pride in our solutions’ function throughout their lifespan. So, we never really let them out of sight, even when they’ve left for distant shores. Our global network is there to ensure continuous optimal function. You know what you get with a Sleipner, today and tomorrow.
