The unit can be positioned at any suitable location within the ship and requires only an electrical power supply to drive the motors, hydraulic supply and associated services. Control is achieved from an on-board control panel and pendant, and when required, the units can be easily integrated into a larger system and controlled from a central control console. Speed and distance information can be provided from optical encoders fitted to a rotating wheel positioned on the cable. Squeeze control is effected using the same liquid spring arrangement featured in the DOHB and LCE units. Typically, a two wheel pair transporter will have a maximum tension of 2 Te at up to 4 knots and a maximum speed of 8 knots at up to 1 Te.
