UPGRADATION OF NAVAL STEERING CONTROL SYSTEM (NSC) FOR FAST ATTACK CRAFT.
Indigenously designed Naval Steering Control (NSC) project by Electrical New Design Center (ENDC) have been commenced to replace obsolete ASD control system onboard Fast Attack Craft with PLC based control system due to non-responsiveness of OEM and limited funds availability of SLN for OEM up gradation.
Programmable Logic Controller has been used for the project and it was successfully installed in year 2019. This project saved Rs. 10 Million per craft and entire project saved 105 million per craft. Subsequently all the Craft of relevant FAC series were upgraded with PLC based NSC system and the total savings by introducing the indigenously designed NPSC 140 million.
