The large container ship "OOCL Bauhinia", equipped with the new medium voltage switchgear "HS50" manufactured and sold by Terasaki Electric Co., Ltd., began operation in December 2024.
The ship is a neo-Panamax type* container ship with a container loading capacity of 16,828 TEU, with a total length of 366.99 meters and a total width of 51.0 meters. Not only is it designed to comply with the latest environmental regulations, but it is also characterized by its design that takes into consideration energy efficiency, safety, and crew comfort.
The shipowner is Orient Overseas Container Line Co., Ltd., a Hong Kong shipping company, and it was built at Dalian COSCO KHI Ship Engineering Co., Ltd., a Chinese joint venture shipyard of Kawasaki Heavy Industries, Ltd.
The "HS50" adopted on this vessel is our latest medium voltage switchgear that is more compact and has a larger capacity than our previous model, the "HS21", and is suitable for future ships that will become larger and more electrified.
In addition to the "HS50" medium voltage switchgear, the vessel is also equipped with the "GS50" group starter panel, the "TERANET50X" integrated control and monitoring system, and the "TERASAKI Shore Connection" shore power supply system, making a significant contribution to the safety and environmental measures of the vessel.
We will continue to contribute to improving the advanced operation support, safety, and economy of ships.
