Description
KONGSBERG SEATEX AS
MRU-M-SC1
MOTION REFERENCE UNIT
ONLY MAIN SHIPPING CASE
The Kongsberg Seatex MRU-M-SC1 is a high-precision Motion Reference Unit designed for demanding marine and offshore applications. This listing covers the main shipping case only — the purpose-built protective enclosure used to safely transport and store the MRU-M-SC1 unit. Motion Reference Units of this type are central components within marine control systems, providing accurate real-time measurements of vessel motion including roll, pitch, and heave. These outputs are critical inputs for dynamic positioning systems, offshore crane control, survey equipment, and subsea operations where stable, reliable motion data directly affects operational safety and performance.
Key Features
✓ Purpose-built main shipping case designed specifically for the Kongsberg Seatex MRU-M-SC1 Motion Reference Unit, ensuring secure transit and storage of the sensor assembly.
✓ Robust enclosure construction typical of Kongsberg Seatex instrument cases, offering mechanical protection against impact, moisture ingress, and environmental exposure during transport.
✓ Compatible with the MRU-M-SC1 unit as used within Kongsberg marine control and dynamic positioning system configurations — exact system integration subject to vessel-specific confirmation.
✓ Suitable for use in offshore, survey, and vessel environments where equipment must be transported between installations or held in controlled storage between deployments.
✓ Replacement or spare shipping cases are valuable for vessels and service teams maintaining Kongsberg Seatex MRU equipment, preventing damage to sensitive inertial sensors during logistics and maintenance operations.
Marine Applications
✓ Dynamic positioning (DP) vessels requiring motion reference input for station-keeping systems, where the MRU unit must be transported or exchanged between vessels or service centres.
✓ Offshore support vessels and platform supply vessels (PSVs) operating Kongsberg DP or motion monitoring systems that utilise MRU-series sensors.
✓ Hydrographic survey vessels where the MRU-M-SC1 provides motion compensation data for multibeam sonar and echo sounding equipment.
✓ Offshore crane vessels and heavy-lift operations where real-time heave and pitch data from the MRU system informs load management and crane control decisions.
✓ Subsea construction and ROV support vessels where Kongsberg Seatex motion sensing equipment forms part of an integrated offshore control and monitoring system.
Why Marine Engineers Choose
Kongsberg Seatex MRU equipment is trusted across the global offshore and survey fleet for its measurement accuracy and system integration reliability. Having access to genuine protective shipping cases ensures that sensitive motion reference hardware is handled correctly throughout its service life, reducing the risk of calibration drift or physical damage caused by inadequate transit protection.
Ideal For
Offshore support vessels, DP-classed vessels, hydrographic survey ships, heavy-lift crane vessels, subsea construction vessels, and marine service teams managing Kongsberg Seatex MRU equipment logistics and maintenance programmes.
