WARNING
MODIFICATION HAZARD
Unauthorized modifications, alterations or installations of or to this equipment are prohibited and are in violation of AR 750-10. Any such unauthorized modifications, alterations or installations could result in death, injury or damage to the equipment.
HIGH PRESSURE HYDRAULIC SYSTEM HAZARDS
Hydraulic systems can cause serious injuries if high pressure lines or equipment fail.
Never work on hydraulic systems or equipment unless there is another person nearby who is familiar with the operation and hazards of the equipment, and who can give first aid. A second person should stand by controls to turn off hydraulic pumps in an emergency.
MOVING MACHINERY HAZARDS
Be very careful when operating or working near moving machinery.
Running engines, rotating shafts, and other moving machinery parts could cause personal injury or death.
ELECTRICAL HAZARDS
Do not be misled by the term “low voltage.” Potentials as low as 50 volts may cause death under adverse conditions. Be careful not to contact 115-Vac input connections when installing operating equipment.
Whenever the nature of the operation permits, keep one hand away from the equipment to reduce the hazard of current flowing through the body.
FLAMMABLE LIQUID AND COMBUSTIBLE VAPOR HAZARDS
Gasoline, fuel oil, lubricating oil, grease, paint, paint thinner, cleaning solvents and other combustible liquids present a serious fire hazard. Always store combustible liquids in approved containers and in their designated compartments or deck storage locations. Ensure exhaust and ventilation fans are operating while using cleaning solvents or paint products. Never store or charge batteries in a confined space without ventilation or near operating electrical equipment.
When refueling and defueling the vessel, ensure appropriate signs are posted in visible locations and warnings are announced over the vessel’s public address system. Smoking, welding and any operation which involves open flames must be prohibited throughout the vessel.
CAUSTIC AND CORROSIVE CHEMICAL HAZARDS
Battery acid and water purification chemicals such as bromine and chlorine can cause serious burns to eyes or exposed areas of skin. Always wear eye protection and protective clothing when working with caustic and corrosive chemicals. If chemicals accidently contact skin or eyes, immediately flush with large quantities of water and seek medical attention.
COMPRESSED AIR HAZARDS
High pressure compressed air tanks, piping systems and air operated devices possess potential for serious injury to eyes and exposed areas of skin due to escaping air pressure.
ELECTROMAGNETIC RADIATION HAZARDS
Electromagnetic radiation from the searchlight, radar, and radio antennas has the potential for serious radiation burns. Do not stand in the path of radiation emission.
FIRE SUPPRESSANT HAZARDS
Fire suppressant chemicals displace oxygen and can cause suffocation. Immediately evacuate areas where they will be used.
For Artificial Respiration, refer to FM 21-11.

Section III. PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION
1-10. General. The following paragraphs provide principles of operation of the LCU systems.
1-11. Power Generation System. The power generation system provides the LCU with primary (240 Vac, 3-phase, 60Hz, 250kW) and emergency (240 Vac, 3-phase, 60Hz, 40kW) electrical power (FIGURE 1-1). Primary power is generated by one of two ship's service diesel generator (SSDG) sets, which supply the main switchboard and the emergency switchboard through a bus tie from the main switchboard. Emergency power is generated by an emergency diesel generator set, which supplies the emergency switchboard for continued operation of vital systems and equipment during loss of primary power. In port, the LCU is capable of receiving shore power (480/240 Vac) through a shore power cable terminating at a two-connection shore power box. I f available shore power is 480 Vac, the power is selected at the main switchboard through a circuit breaker and stepped down to 240 Vac by three shore power transformers, prior to main switchboard entry. Shore power of 240 Vac is selected at the main switchboard by circuit breaker, and bypasses the 480 Vac transformers.
Automatic bus transfer equipment, located in the emergency switchboard, isolates the emergency switchboard from the main switchboard upon loss of primary power and allows emergency power to be supplied through the emergency switchboard.
a. Ship Service Diesel Generator Engine. Two diesel generator set engines power individual ship service diesel generators, which provide primary electrical power throughout the LCU. The port ship service diesel generator engine (No. 2) is air started; the starboard ship service diesel generator engine (No. 1) is electrically started. Engine control and monitoring are provided from the engine room console and at the individual engine control panel.
b. Shin's Service Generator. Two 250 kW brushless exciter generators provide 240 Vac, three-phase, 60 Hz primary ship's service power. Each generator is capable of providing 110 percent of the necessary at sea load for the propulsion and safety of the ship under normal conditions. The generators may be operated in parallel;
however, normal operation has one generator on line and the other in reserve.
C. Main Switchboard. The main switchboard (FIGURE 1-2), located in the engine room operating station, provides generator selection, shore power selection, and power distribution for ship's service 240 Vac and 120 Vac power. Distribution of 120 Vac is accomplished by ship's service 120 Vac transformers located in the engine room operating station. The emergency switchboard bus tie provides 240 Vac to the emergency switchboard. Power selection is provided by closing circuit breakers on the switchboard. Power monitoring is provided by ammeters, voltmeters, frequency meters, and synchronization meters. Controls are provided for manual and automatic generator voltage regulation and generator engine speed regulation, The switchboard bus tie also serves as an emergency 240 Vac power feedback source for the main switchboard from the emergency switchboard, to power selected equipment systems during emergency power conditions. An interlock system is incorporated into the switchboard to prevent shore power from being applied to the switchboard while generator power is applied. The interlock system also prevents the emergency switchboard emergency generator circuit breaker from being closed.
d. Emergencv Switchboard. The emergency switchboard (FIGURE 1-3), located in the emergency generator room, normally receives 240 Vac primary power from the main

Upon loss of ship's service power from the main switchboard, automatic bus transfer equipment within the emergency switchboard isolates the emergency switchboard and provides for automatic or manual starting of the emergency generator. Power monitoring of the emergency generator is provided by a voltmeter, ammeter, wattmeter, and frequency meter. A voltage adjustment control for the emergency generator output is also provided. A main switchboard bus tie circuit breaker and bus tie bypass switch permit distribution of emergency power (240 Vac) to the main switchboard. The emergency generator circuit breaker is prevented from being closed by an interlock system when primary power is being provided through the bus tie. Power distribution is accomplished through circuit breakers on the switchboard 240 Vac, 120 Vac, and 24 Vdc distribution panels. A step-down transformer provides 120 Vac back to the switchboard, and a 24 Vdc battery charger and switchboard batteries provide 24 Vdc back to the switchboard for distribution. A selector switch located on the emergency switchboard allows the emergency generator battery charger to provide backup power to the emergency switchboard batteries.
e. Shore Power Box. The shore power box is located on the 01 level, aft exterior bulkhead. The two-connection shore power box provides a cable connection for shore power and another cable connection for providing shore power to another vessel in tandem.
1-12 Control and Monitoring System. The control and monitoring system provides for the centralization of control and monitoring functions for the main propulsion power train, selected pumps, ship's service diesel generators, and vital alarms. Pilothouse and engine room propulsion control is possible without intervention of engine room personnel. Primary control is from the pilothouse console with one soldier at the engine room console. The system permits constant automatic monitoring of vital machinery operating conditions and initiation of many functions from the engine room console. The control and monitoring system consists of the following:
engine room console, pilothouse console, machinery plant monitoring and alarm system, engine order telegraph, steering control panel, dual station throttle control system, bowthruster and auxiliary fire pump control, fire detection, and bow ramp control.
a. Engine Room Console (ERC). The ERC provides a centralized engine room location for: controlling propulsion shafts direction and speed; monitoring machinery alarm conditions; acknowledging engine orders;
alerting engineering personnel of assistance needed and acknowledging the dead man alarm notification from the bridge. These functions are provided to the ERC via interfaces with the machinery plant monitoring system, engine order telegraph, and dual station throttle control system.
b. Pilothouse Console (PHC). The PHC provides control and monitoring of the main propulsion power, speed and direction during usual ship operating and maneuvering conditions without intervention of engine room personnel. The PHC also provides for: machinery plant monitoring; autopilot operation; steering system selection and monitoring; bowthruster/auxiliary fire pump engine control; bowthruster control; communicating desired propulsion shaft direction and speed to the ERC; operation of blinker lights; operation of bow ramp; operation of ship's intercommunications system; and activation of ship's general alarm system. These functions are provided to the PHC via interface with the machinery plant monitoring system; autopilot; steering control panel, helm (wheel) and rudder angle indicator; dual station throttle control system, port and starboard main propulsion engine shaft tachometers; bowthruster engine shaft tachometer; bowthruster control panel; engine order telegraph;
blinker light key; ship's intercommunications panel; and the general alarm contactor.
1-8
c. Dual Station Throttle Control. The dual station throttle control system provides pneumatic direction and throttle control for the main propulsion engines from the PHC and ERC, and the bowthruster/auxiliary fire pump engine from the PHC only.
(1) Main propulsion engine control. The system provides two throttle and direction control valves at both the PHC and the ERC. The ERC contains a pilot air valve for ERC control of the system or transfer of control air to the PHC. The PHC contains a pushbutton air valve for control air at the pilothouse.
(2) Bowthruster/auxiliary fire pump engine control. The PHC contains a throttle control air valve for bowthruster/auxiliary fire pump selection. Selection results in engaging the appropriate power take-off (PTO). The valve also provides throttle control for the engine.
d. Machinery Plant Monitoring System. The machinery plant monitoring system is a microcomputer based system which monitors vital machinery operating conditions. The system consists of the engine room console panel and a color video cathode ray tube (CRT) display on the engine room console and the bridge console panel and color video CRT display located on the pilot house console. The CRT displays date and time, alarm messages, and monitored status. The monitored status is presented in seven pages of displays.
Page 1 - Machinery Plant Control System. Provides a table of contents for the system.
Page 2 - Engine Summary. Displays oil pressure, water temperature, stack temperature, and RPM for both port and starboard main engines.
Page 3 - Engine Summary. Provides oil temperature and oil differential for both port and starboard main engines and also displays left and right main engine bank temperatures for both main engines.
Page 4 - Generator Summary. Displays oil pressure, water temperature, oil temperature, and stack temperature for the port and starboard SSDG engines.
Page 5 - Reduction Gears. Provides oil pressure and oil temperature for the port and starboard reduction gears.
Page 6 - Bowthruster Engine. Displays oil pressure and water temperature for the bowthruster engine.
Page 7 - Fire Pump/Main. Provides indication of valve position for main and emergency system, control air pressure, and start air pressure for the port and starboard main engines and SSDG number 2.
(1) Engine room console panel. The engine room console panel provides a centralized engine room location for starting and stopping the bilge/ballast pump, fresh water makers, fresh water pumps, fire pumps, ship's service diesel generators, and main propulsion engines. Indicator lamps are provided for run condition display of other equipment, control station in operation (PHC or ERC), dead man alarm, and engineers-assistance-needed pushbuttons. The panel also provides controls for the CRT display and audible alarm.
(2) Bridge console panel. The bridge console panel provides controls for main propulsion engines emergency stop, bowthruster/auxiliary fire pump engine start and stop, exhaust and supply ventilator fans shutdown, fire pumps No. 1 and No. 2 start and stop, and dead man alarm illuminated pushbutton. Indicator lamps are provided for port and starboard steering motor running, control station in operation, bowthruster engine running, and fire pumps No. 1 or No. 2 running. The panel also provides controls for operating the panel and CRT display.
e. Engine Order Telegraph (EOT) . The EOT communicates desired propeller shaft speed and direction from the pilothouse console to the engine room console when the bridge is not in direct control of the main engines. The system consists of drop-in panels in both the ERC and PHC. The panels contain illuminated pushbuttons and bel ls. The bells ring at both locations. A two-wire data connection between the panels is used to send and acknowledge orders taken or sent from either panel.
Direction is monitored in ahead, astern, and stop position. Wrong direction status is visually and audibly alarmed at both stations. Each panel also alarms for order and power failures.
(1) Power group. The power group consists of two illuminated pushbuttons:
PWR ON/LAMP TEST and COMM FAIL/SILENCE. The PWR ON/LAMP TEST pushbutton will apply power to that unit: a power failure of one of the two independent power supplies, fed from Wheel House DC Panel EP024-1, causes the PWR ON/LAMP TEST to flash on and off and the audible alarm to sound. Pushing the pushbutton will silence the alarm, and if one of the power supplies has failed, the PWR ON/LAMP TEST will continue to flash. If both power supplies are available, the lamp will light steady. When a unit is first turned on, or power is restored, the PWR ON/LAMP TEST lamp will flash and the audible alarms will activate. Pushing the pushbutton will silence the alarms and cause the lamp to light steady. The unit then will update itself to the other unit and display any detected faults by alarm or flashing lamps.
Communication failure between EOT units will be alarmed by the flashing COMM FAIL/SILENCE illuminated pushbutton and audible alarms. Pushing the pushbutton will silence the audible alarm, and the front panel will display various types of communication failures by indicator lamps. Silencing an alarm within a unit group silences all alarms in that group.
(2) Port and starboard telegraph group. This group consists of ten port and starboard commands (orders): four ahead (AHD) orders, four astern (AST) orders, one BRIDGE CONTROL order, and one STOP order. Completed orders are displayed as steadily illuminated pushbuttons and silenced, audible alarms. A new order can be placed by pushing another pushbutton which then flashes at both stations (pilothouse and engine room consoles). At the same time, the internal horn sounds, and will continue to sound until the new order is acknowledged. The new order is acknowledged at the receiver station by pushing the flashing pushbutton, which then turns to the steady mode. The previous order is then cancelled, and all audible alarms are silenced. New orders can be changed or cancelled at the sending unit prior to acknowledgement by pushing another order pushbutton. When the BRIDGE CONTROL order is acknowledged, the AHD, STOP, and AST pushbutton lamps are turned o f f . When bridge control is relinquished by placing and acknowledging another order, the BRIDGE CONTROL lamp is turned off, thereby indicating engine room control.
(3) Wrong direction group. This group consists of two indicating lamps (port and starboard shafts) which alarm when a wrong direction condition exists. The wrong direction display and alarm is active after an AHD, STOP, or AST order is acknowledged. If the order has been acknowledged and the shaft direction does not
1-9 match the order (AHD-STOP-AST), the wrong direction alarm is activated (WRONG DIRECTION lamp flashes and audible alarm sounds). The flashing WRONG DIRECTION alarm lamp operates immediately but the audible alarm may be delayed to compensate for changing of direction from AHD to AST or AST to AHD. When the correct direction status is achieved, the wrong direction visual and audible alarms are cancelled. If the direction of propulsion thrust changes from the acknowledged EOT direction, then the wrong direction alarm is re-activated.
(4) Standby/finished with engines group. This group consists of three illuminated pushbuttons: STANDBY, CANCEL STANDBY, and FINISHED WITH ENGINES.
Together, they function as a separate EOT group similar to the port and starboard EOT groups.
(a) A STANDBY order may be placed independently of any other order.
(b) STANDBY, whether acknowledged or not, may be cancelled by a CANCEL STANDBY order from the initiating EOT.
(c) A receiving EOT must acknowledge a STANDBY order before it can issue a CANCEL STANDBY order.
(d) If the port and/or starboard EOT are active, a FINISHED WITH ENGINES order may be initiated only if both port and starboard EOTs have acknowledged BRIDGE CONTROL or STOP orders.
f . Steering Control Panel. The steering control panel is located on the pilothouse console. The panel provides system power selection, mode of operation including full followup (FFU) using the helm, non-followup (NFU) using pushbutton switches on the panel, and AUTO (autopilot).
for each steering gear pumpset, The panel also contains an alarm panel alarm test switch, and cancel switch to silence the alarm. Rudder position commands are input to the steering gear by movement of the helm or pressing pushbutton switches. These input signals operate solenoid activated hydraulic control valves in the pumpset selected. The control valves direct the flow of hydraulic fluid from the pumpset to power cylinders attached to the rudder tiller arms which position the rudder. The steering control panel contains a rudder angle indicator that displays the actual rudder position in degrees. A rudder order indicator below the panel displays a direct indication of the actual position of the helm. The pumpset status panel includes two sets of six indicators which give information on the status of each pumpset system. The green status lamps (POWER AVAILABLE, MOTOR RUN) intensity is adjustable by a DIMMER control. The remainder of the status lamps are activated-by alarm sensors and remain on after the alarm horn has been cancelled, and until the fault is cleared.
The NFU pushbutton switches operate relays, which in turn operate the pumpset solenoids until released. The rudder will then remain stationary to the position commanded. When in FFU or AUTO mode, the NFU pushbuttons control the rudder to move in the direction commanded as long as the pushbuttons are depressed. Upon releasing a NFU pushbutton, steering control of the rudder will return to the control mode selected. When in FFU, steering responds to the action of the helm. The rudder will continue to move after the helm is moved to the desired position, until the rudder matches the exact position of the helm as indicated by the rudder order indicator. When in AUTO mode, the course set by the AUTOPILOT allows hands-off steering of the vessel.

g. Bowthruster Control. The bowthruster control panel located on the pilothouse console provides control and monitoring of the bowthruster waterjet operation. Indicator lamps are provided to indicate that electrical power and hydraulic power are available, minimum hydraulic oil level in the hydraulic oil tank, and minimum lube oil level in the lube oil tank. Alarm horns accompany the visual indication of minimum hydraulic oil and lube oil tank levels. Pushbutton controls are also provided for activating the electrical power unit and hydraulic unit. A toggle switch is used for steering the waterjet nozzle to the angle of thrust desired. The angle of thrust is displayed on a meter.
h. Fire Detection. The fire control panel is located in the aft section of the pilothouse and provides the bridge with status of the vessel fire detection system. The fire control panel is the system main controller processor. It processes all incoming signals from each vessel zone and converts them to an independent output that is displayed on the panel: alarm horn, alarm and status lamps, trouble lamps, battery charger, current and voltage meters. Controls are provided for system reset and lamp testing, alarm silencing, and trouble silencing.
i. Bow Ramp Control. The bow ramp control system consists of three bow ramp control panels: pilothouse console, boatswain storeroom (bow ramp winch), and starboard forecastle deck. Controls are provided for turning the winch electric motor off and on (PHC and boatswain storeroom only) and raising and lowering the ramp.
Pushbuttons are provided for starting and stopping the winch hydraulic pump and taking up tension (slack) on the wire rope. Indicator lamps provide visual display of hydraulic oil temperature (above 150°F), tension (slack wire rope), and hydraulic pump running.
j. Dead Man Alarm. The dead man alarm system is incorporated in the machinery plant monitoring engine room console panel and bridge console panel. The bridge console panel contains an illuminated pushbutton that when depressed causes the corresponding illuminated pushbutton and audible horn on the engine room console panel to be activated. If the engine room attendant does not acknowledge the dead man activation by the bridge within a specified time, alarms will sound, signifying the engine room attendant cannot acknowledge. If the engine room attendant answers the dead man alarm within the specified time, both illuminated pushbuttons will extinguish and horn will be silenced.
k. Engineer's Assistance Needed. The engineer's assistance needed system is incorporated in the machinery plant monitoring engine room console panel. The assistance needed system notifies off watch engineers that the ERC attendant needs assistance. The system is activated when the ENGINEER ASSISTANCE NEEDED illuminated pushbutton on the ERC is pushed. This action causes an audible alarm and flashing lamp to be activated at remote panels in the mess room and the chief engineer's stateroom. Pressing the illuminated pushbutton on one of the remote panels will acknowledge the assistance needed request.
