MODEL: SAL SD4-4
ART NO 704044
SLE 1603005
REV.B4
The Consilium SAL SD4-4 is a General Display unit designed for use within the SAL Speed Log system — a precision electromagnetic or Doppler-based speed measurement solution widely deployed across commercial and naval vessels. This display unit serves as the primary human-machine interface for the speed log system, presenting vessel speed-through-water data to the bridge team in real time. Accurate speed information is critical for safe navigation, passage planning, fuel optimisation, and compliance with voyage reporting requirements. As a dedicated display component, the SD4-4 integrates directly into the SAL system architecture and is essential for maintaining full operational capability of the speed log installation.
Key Features
✓ Functions as the general display unit for the Consilium SAL Speed Log system, presenting real-time vessel speed data to bridge personnel.
✓ Identified by Art No. 704044 at revision level B4 — specific hardware revision should be confirmed against the installed system configuration before ordering.
✓ Designed for compatibility within the Consilium SAL speed log system family; system-level compatibility with specific processors or sensor units is subject to confirmation based on vessel installation.
✓ Intended for bridge or control station mounting in a sheltered environment; installation context and panel-cut requirements should be verified against original system documentation.
✓ As a display-side replacement component, substitution with the correct revision level is recommended to ensure seamless integration and continued system performance.
Marine Applications
✓ Bridge navigation stations aboard merchant vessels requiring continuous speed-through-water monitoring and display.
✓ Bulk carriers, tankers, container ships, and general cargo vessels equipped with Consilium SAL electromagnetic speed log systems.
✓ Passenger ferries and ro-ro vessels where accurate speed data supports both operational safety and port approach procedures.
✓ Naval auxiliary and offshore support vessels utilising Consilium SAL speed measurement equipment as part of their integrated bridge systems.
✓ Vessel refit and upgrade projects where a faulty or obsolete display unit within an existing SAL speed log installation requires like-for-like replacement.
