Professional Damage Restoration Services in Burton Upon Trent

An Atlantic Discovery, an 84M Multipurpose Supply Vessel managed by Castle Ship Management contacted Greasley Electronics for help. Due to COVID 19 the vessel was put into Cold Layup and powered down for a number of months due to the international restrictions on movement for crew and vessels. One of the systems that didn’t respond and refused to power up was a system called a Datasound. This is a product produced by Rolls Royce to measure the fluid levels of the numerous tanks aboard such as Fuel, Ballast, and Fresh water to name a few. Unfortunately though the version is long out of production, no longer supported and parts unobtainable. Initially, weeks were spent trouble shooting, ordering second hand components from suppliers around the world that deal in dismantling vessels and salvaging parts such as these. Unfortunately when you purchase these parts they are in an unknown condition, provided without warranty and there is a 50/50 chance of it working. In their case they either obtained defective parts or the specific part they needed was not available. Fortunately though they had dealt with Greasley Electronics on a number of occasions before and they knew that if anyone could fix it, we could…. So they enlisted us in attempting a repair, once we had agreed a price they removed the entire system from the ship, wired it up as a test rig and hand delivered it to us due to the fragile nature. Needless to say the 84 million pound ship is in full working order. 👌...
