Marine Automation Systems and Control Specialists

Technical Marine Service, Inc. (TMS) started business in 1987. From the beginning, our approach has been the same: when the job is complete, the system must be more reliable, simpler to maintain, easier to operate, and more cost-effective to run.

TMS originally focused on providing repair and maintenance services for existing control systems and soon branched into new product development by drawing on our ability to provide unique and creative solutions. TMS’s design and component selection criteria reflect the goal of enabling the system’s operators to perform the bulk of all equipment service needs without calling on outside help.

Our engineers and technicians are familiar with many types of boiler control systems on both US and foreign-flagged vessels. Electronic and pneumatic systems installed as long as 35 years ago have been re engineered to meet or exceed manufacturer’s specifications. Where necessary or advantageous, sub-systems have been designed or re-engineered, replacing obsolete components with state-of-the-art equipment while still maintaining original signal protocols.

Today, TMS expertise extends to all areas of marine automation and controls. We specialize in providing solutions for both new and retrofit applications using leading edge commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) components .

When you need replacement or service with your control systems, automation or electronics applications, look to TMS to provide the innovation, hardware, software, commissioning and training for your vessel and crew.

The LC-100 eliminated the need for hazardous liquid mercury to be used as the gauges indicating fluid. Air usage was minimized by use of a valved manifold that uses less than 0.05 SCFM per cycle. User programmable specific gravity allows for a single style of level indicator to be used across a wide variety of liquids that can vary in composition, viscosity and temperature.

LevelComs are found in many marine applications and can also be found in applications as diverse as high tech manufacturing, materials processing, mining, municipal water, waste water plants and environmental monitoring.

Our mission at TMS is to provide our customers with the finest products and services for any size job we do, from the smallest repair to the largest installation.
