Teledyne TSS’ SG Brown Steering Control System includes a range of features developed to ensure optimum safety and reliability:

• Dual-channel, follow-up hand control from the bridge and steering gear compartment helm positions.
• Comprehensive monitoring system with alarm circuits also ensures that the steering will always "fail safe" and allow timely rectification of any faults.

The latest design anticipates all situations that might be encountered during combat and peacetime operations.

Under its SG Brown trade name, Teledyne TSS has manufactured over seventy steering control systems for ships in the Royal Navy and for those of other nations including Australia, Netherlands and Brazil. Steering control systems have been developed for ships that range in size from the Hunt Class minesweepers to the Invincible Class aircraft carriers.
