The ARI Full Mission Engine Room Simulator (FMERS) is a cutting edge, turnkey solution suitable for training Marine Engineers at Watch keeping, Operational and Management levels.
It enables a realistic and accurate simulation of the Engine Room, comprising a Main Engine Control Room, Main Switch Board, and simulated machinery space including a mimic pipeline panel, and local operating stations.

The ARI FMERS simulates the MANB& W 6S60MC 6 cylinder, 2 stroke, reversible, slow speed marine diesel main engine of firing order 1,5,3,4,2,6 which is directly coupled to a fixed pitch propeller and all the auxiliary systems that accompany such an installation in a tanker main engine room.

The SOFTWARE is based on realistic and rigorous mathematical models, and the HARDWARE creates a realistic engine room environment with a large number of real dials, gauges, controls, indicators and switches. The ARI FMERS can be used in stand-alone mode (with instructor acting as the bridge control) or coupled to a Bridge simulator for interactive training.

STCW'95
The ARI FMERS can be used to conduct the IMO Model course 2.07, and 7.04. In addition, it can be used to demonstrate the following STCW-95 competency requirements:
1.   Table A-III/1.4: Maintain a safe engineering  watch.
2.   Table A-III/1.6: Operate main and auxiliary machinery and associated control systems.
3.   Table A-III/1.7: Operate pumping systemsand associated control systems.

4.   Table A-III/1.8: Operate alternators, generators and control systems.
5.   Table A-III/1.9: Maintain marine engineering systems, including control systems.
6.   Table A-III/1.11: Maintain sea worthiness of the ship.
7.   Table A-III/2.1: Plan and schedule operations.
8.   Table A-III/2.2: Start up shut down main propulsion and auxiliary machinery, including associated 

      systems.

9.   Table A-III/2.3: Operate, monitor and evaluate engine performance and capacity.
10. Table A-III/2.4: Maintain safety of engine equipment, systems and services.
11. Table A-III/2.5: Manage fuel and ballast operations.
12. Table A-III/2.6 Use internal communication systems.
13. Table A-III/2.10 Detect and identify the cause of machinery malfunctions and correct fault.
14. Table A-III/2.12: Control trim, stability and Stress.
15. Table A-VIII/3.2: Principles to be observed in keeping an Engineering Watch.
16. Table A-VIII/4: Watch keeping in Port.
