Ships Electronics Services (SES) has over 35 years’ experience within the leisure, fishing, commercial shipping, military shipping and offshore oil industries.

A market leader in the supply, installation and maintenance of maritime communication and navigation electronics, SES operates from six strategic coastal sites around the UK, including Aberdeen, Grangemouth, Grimsby, Rochester, Poole and Plymouth.

Maritime communication and navigation electronics

SES has worked with many of the leading manufacturers in the electronics industry, including Raytheon Anschütz, Furuno, Thrane & Thrane, Zenitel, Comrod, KVH, FLIR, Rutter, SAM Electronics and Clear-Com.

In addition, SES is the sole onboard service centre for Thrane & Thrane, including the SAILOR range of GMDSS products. SES is also a UK service partner for Furuno, Jotron, Kelvin Hughes, KVH, Naval, NetWave, Danelec, SAM Electronics, Transas, Wired Ocean and Zenitel products.

Ships Electronic Services

SES is a dealer / distributer for most of these manufacturers and offers an impressive portfolio of marine specialist electronics which encompass a wide range of needs. This includes, but is not limited to, radar products, ECDIS, GPS/DGPS, satellite and internal communications, satellite TV and entertainment systems, antennas, and internet systems.

Voice communications systems

SES has been appointed as the sole UK and offshore maritime distributor for Clear-Com, a global leader in critical voice communication systems. Clear-Com’s wireless and wired intercom systems help its users to roam freely around large vessels without audio fading or losing communication altogether.

This strengthens safety in environments where the steel construction of the ship causes multi-path and frequency interference issues. Such is the experience of the SES team that full installations, from design procurement to installation and follow-up maintenance, can be provided.

Full system installation of marine navigation electronics and voice communication systems

The extremely experienced SES team has gained an outstanding reputation for its customer service skills and can oversee full system installations from design class approval and procurement through to any necessary follow-up maintenance for all systems and most applications. Our dedicated project managers work alongside the customer to plan, supply, install and commission.

24/7 assistance for maritime communication and navigation electronics

The phone lines are manned 24/7 to assist customers with advice and technical assistance. SES engineers travel worldwide to offer owners the most cost-effective service for their vessels. SES has a huge sourcing network so it can offer the best prices for customers, in addition to having the spare materials ready to dispatch wherever and whenever they are needed.

Electronic navigation equipment servicing

SES is one of the few marine electronics companies to be certified to ISO 9001:2008 for the design, stockholding, supply, installation and servicing of electronic, navigation, communication and associated equipment for maritime purposes.

SES is also registered with first point assessment (FPAL). FPAL is the supplier management service for the oil and gas industry and works to identify, qualify, evaluate and monitor suppliers on behalf of its purchasing members.
