Anti-Heeling System
System Overview
The Anti-Heeling System is designed for the continuous
compensation of the ships heel during all kinds of
loading operations in port and during offshore operations.
With over 20 years of experience, our systems have been
installed on different types of container, heavy lift, offshore
supply and construction vessels. Special heel control on
sailing ships for wind load compensation on cruise course
or ice heeling on ice breakers round up the wide range of
Anti-Heeling System applications.
The heeling compensation of the system is achieved
by pumping ballast water or other fluids between the
heeling tanks using reversible propeller pumps as well
as applications with centrifugal pumps. Pneumatically
controlled butterfly valves are standard parts of the
Anti-Heeling System.
The state of the art PLC unit HOMIP with integrated
6 touch screen display offers user-friendly operation

via customised screen layouts. It is designed for automatic

or manual heel control and can be connected to the ship
management system via Ethernet or RS 485 interface.

Pneumatic Operated Valves

Hoppes axial reversible propeller pumps are especially

designed for controlled bidirectional water shift. Sea water
resistant bronze material ensures long time operation.
Three different pump sizes are available for vertical or
horizontal installation as well as ex-proof executions. Pump
performance range can be set by gear and motor type.

The fluid flow is controlled by remote operated butterfly

valves with Hoppes reliable and fast acting pneumatic
actuator HOPAC. These actuators are especially designed
for marine use with high-quality seawater resistant
materials. Other actuators such as hydraulic or electrohydraulic type are also available upon request.

Heavy Lift Load Compensation

Hoppe offers an advanced Anti-Heeling System with a
special load moment control. The destabilizing moments
of, for example, heavy crane operations are recorded and
used to automatically determine the required stabilizing
moments. Frequency controlled reversible pumps ensure
immediate flow control reaction. In the case of offshore
heel operation, Hoppes inertial measuring unit HOSIM
is used to accurately determine the vessels motion and
eliminate its effect so that the heel compensation can be
executed correctly, even at sea.

The Anti-Heeling System is the base for Hoppes Stability

Test System. In combination with Hoppes Tank Content
and Draught Measuring Systems, an inclining test can be
carried out to verify the actual stability, providing valuable
safety and cargo optimizing information.

Ice-Heeling
The Anti-Heeling System can be used for ice heeling
operations on ice breakers. It is used to heel the vessel
regularly from port to starboard so that the vessel does
not get stuck in ice. Such a system requires fast reaction
times and large heel moments. For higher capacities
Blower Anti-Heeling Systems are also available.
