IMTRA Brings Lilaas Controls to US Market
IMTRA informs it has partnered with Lilaas to bring the latest controls to the U.S. market. With this exclusive distribution agreement, Lilaas products will enhance IMTRA’s line of OEM products.
Lilaas has recently introduced its newest type-approved and compact controllers, the L01 and the L04. Already available in European markets, the new controllers are now also available in North America exclusively from IMTRA. The L01 is designed for azimuth, single/double thruster and propulsion control, while the L04 is a multi-axis joystick controller designed for a wide variety of onboard and shore-based applications.
The L01 is offered in multiple configurations and can be purchased with an electric shaft system or as a mechanical version. The unit’s TFT LCD display panel graphically shows lever position and provides feedback information from ships’ systems. It also includes improved image quality controls, such as addressability and contrast, as well as capacitive touch switches for menu operation or for customizing functionality. Each unit communicates via CANopen, analog signals or both, depending on the specific application. IMTRA’s knowledgeable technicians have been trained in the Lilaas factory and can configure the L01 in minutes as part of the installation and setup process using Lilaas’ proprietary advanced software. Controllers can also be purchased with optional engraved indicators and LED illuminated scale.
