From the bridge to the engine room, maritime environments demand rugged, reliable technology. Salt, humidity, temperature shifts, and vibration push ordinary systems to their limits. Recab provides mission-ready computers, displays, and networks engineered for life at sea, delivering performance you can trust when reliability matters most.
With decades of rugged computing experience, Recab delivers maritime solutions built for the toughest sea conditions. Our portfolio includes embedded computers, Panel PCs, sunlight-readable displays, and networking systems designed for reliable operation in engine rooms, bridges, and on deck. All products meet international standards such as IEC 60945, IACS E10, and DNV Type Approval.
Maritime EMC testing demands strict frequency control to avoid interference with navigation and communication systems. Recab tailors the right solution for each installation environment.
Operating at sea places unique demands on computing and network systems. Salt mist, humidity, shifting temperatures and constant vibration from vessel movement create conditions that few computers can withstand. Recab delivers maritime computing solutions built to handle these challenges, ensuring reliable operation on vessels of all sizes and across a wide range of mission critical applications.
From advanced navigation systems to critical onboard networks, Recab solutions support industry-standard interfaces to simplify integration:
Let’s break down the most common standards and requirements for the marine market, highlighting key aspects of compliance, performance, and long-term reliability in demanding environments.
Environmental and EMC requirements for navigation and communication electronics, for example with stricter limits to protect VHF marine channels (156–165 MHz) from interference.
Standards defined by the International Association of Classification Societies, covering testing for vibration, temperature, humidity, EMC and salt mist to ensure reliable performance of electronic equipment onboard ships.
Certification often required for onboard installation by classification societies.
Required ingress protection (IP) level depends on the installation location. Equipment installed on open decks or other exposed areas generally needs a higher level of protection against water and dust, while equipment located inside protected spaces, such as the bridge or engine control room, can comply with lower IP requirements.
Equipment in exposed areas must be protected against salt, moisture, condensation, and galvanic corrosion to prevent corrosion and ensure reliability.
Sunlight-readable displays, wide temperature range (-20 °C to +70 °C), fanless or sealed cooling and EMC shielding.
Supports CAN bus, NMEA 2000, Ethernet, and RS-422/RS-485 for reliable, low-latency communication between marine control, monitoring, and navigation systems.
