Marine Solutions: Essential Engineering for Diverse Vessels
The marine market is exceptionally diverse, spanning military vessels, holiday cruises, container shipments, and smaller pleasure boats. Despite their differences, all these ships require marine solutions to ensure their primary functions—delivery, leisure, or security—remain uninterrupted. Process instrumentation is critical in keeping vessels running efficiently and alerting engineers to potential issues before they escalate. Our range of level switches, ultrasonic submersible transmitters, sensors, and programmable displays can be configured to maintain engine integrity, internal systems, and boiler room operations. KEMET offers a variety of marine solutions tailored to meet the strict demands of the industry, including frequency converters, shore power converters, resistors, and load banks.

Products and Solutions
Frequency Converters
Our frequency converters transform mains frequencies into customized outputs based on client needs. These converters combine low operational costs with minimal space requirements and high efficiency, making them ideal for marine applications. Available in both single-phase (10-32 kVA) and three-phase (10-600 kVA) outputs, they offer a wide range of frequencies, including 50, 60, 200, 380, and 400 Hz. We also provide options for installation into 19-inch cabinets, supporting power ratings up to 5 kVA.
Shore Power Converters
Yacht owners often face challenges with voltage and frequency incompatibility during docking. Instead of relying on loud and expensive onboard generators, KEMET’s shore power converters adapt local power supplies to match the yacht’s onboard systems. This solution not only conserves fuel and resources but also reduces noise pollution and environmental impact.
Uninterruptible Power Supply (AC UPS)
For ships and yachts, maintaining continuous power is crucial for vital systems. KEMET’s maritime UPS systems are certified for marine use, ensuring uninterrupted power for critical operations.
Comprehensive Marine Solutions for Various Needs
AC/DC Converters and DC UPS
KEMET provides switched-mode rectifiers with output voltages of 12 V, 24 V, 48 V, or 60 V, serving as both power supplies and charging units.
Submarine Power Solutions
Our shore power rectifiers provide reliable DC power for diesel-powered submarines, essential for protecting sensitive electronics.
Resistors and Load Banks
We offer resistors that control bow thrusters and test generators, among other applications.
Magnetic Float Switches
These switches provide precise level detection in marine tanks, crucial for managing alarms and pump control.
Submersible Hydrostatic Level Transmitters
These transmitters ensure accurate level measurements in challenging conditions, essential for maintaining tank system integrity.
Ultrasonic Liquid Level Switches
Designed for durability, these sensors are ideal for high- or low-level alarm duties.
