Royal Caribbean's next three cruise ships, Quantum of the Seas, Anthem of the Seas and a yet-to-be-named third Oasis class ship, will utilize processing technology supplier Metso DNA for its integrated alarm, monitoring and control systems.
Metso is being contracted by the Meyer Werft shipyard in Germany, where the ships are being constructed. Each ship will recieve integrated alarm, monitoring and control systems that are capable of producing 18,000 input/outputs in the machinery, air conditioning and emergency shutdown systems. The diesel electric power plant will also be managed by the system.
Previously Metso had provided the automation system components for Royal Caribbean's Radiance class of ships.
