The Datum Hawk project, developed in a partnership over the last 2 years between Strathclyde Universities renowned Marine Engineering Department and Datum Electronics, represents a change in the way that vessels will operate planned maintenance across Engine Rooms.
Datum Hawk will empower engineers to move away from traditional fixed-interval maintenance schedules and adopt condition-based maintenance strategies using torsional vibrational analysis (TVA) to understand the true conditions of their engines.
Leveraging data gathered by Datums newest Shaft Power Measurement (SPM) system, the system is compact and easily installed to the vessels intermediate shaft. The system is the ideal addition to any newbuild or retrofitted to any vessel that is interested in extending the life of the engine and its components.
The system will also allow the early identification of anomalies, TVA detects subtle changes in engine vibration that indicate wear, misalignment or impending failures. By identifying these issues in their early stages, maintenance teams can plan timely interventions, preventing costly breakdowns and minimising downtime.
Seamless integration with flow meters extends Datum Hawk’s capabilities to include Specific Fuel Oil Consumption (SFOC) as well as integration with our EEXI monitoring system.

Datum Hawk is an advanced engine monitoring system utilising Datum Electronics industry leading contact free Shaft Power Measurement system to provide insight into the very workings of the engine. The SPM system is compact and easily retrofitted to any vessel, and the new technology within Datum Hawk will allow vessels to move to a more intelligent forms of engine monitoring and maintenance.
Datum Hawk Project is a solution for customers and our intention is to see multiple new benefits and intelligent features added through consultation from users and market demands. As the industry moves to be greener and more sustainable, maintaining an engines efficiency will be a leading concern to ensure vessel operational optimisation.
