Tech/Engineering - Ships, Sailing, Maritime / ships
Russian term or phrase: „R„I„C
From same estimate for work on ship:
„M„Ђ„t„u„‚„~„y„x„p„€„y„‘ „„„‚-„t„p „R„I„C
(I think "„„„‚-„t" is probably "pipeline".)
In another context, from a shipЃLs log:
„D„p„r„|„u„~„y„u „R„I„C„p „r „~„Ђ„‚„}„u.

Inert (Noble) Gas System
Explanation:
Inert Gas System

That was really something to find!

So, Inert (Noble) Gas System:
= Система Инертных Газов.

Краткая характеристика СИГ. Инертный газ (ИГ) - это газ или смесь газов, таких как дымовые газы, содержащие незначительное количество кислорода (менее 8 % по объему). Система инертных газов (СИГ) - это система, состоящая из оборудования и трубопроводов, предназначенных для охлаждения, очистки и подачи инертных газов в грузовые и отстойные танки для создания в них инертной атмосферы с целью предотвращения образования взрывоопасной среды в танках.

As you can see from above it is referred to in both pipelines and pressure (трубопроводы и давление СИГ).


Hope it helps.

Good luck!

Thanks again. I think it would hardly be ethical to award you eight points for the same answer, but I'll give you one more here for taking the trouble to answer both versions of the question!

Explanation:
The only reference I could find that made any sense was from Taiyo Electric:

"of diesel generator engines is vastly reduced ... continuously in parallel
with diesel generators on board. Model: SIG, SPG, SHG,and SFEK"



--------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------

However, the pressure notion doesn\'t fit with the following:
This is a power generating system driven by the main engine of a ship.It uses a thyristor inverter to convert AC power from a shaft generator (which frequency fluctuates in accordance with changes in the rotating speed of the main engine) into constant frequency AC power, and supplies electric power to the bus line after improving the wave form.
When adopting this system, power is generated by the main engine, offering cheaper running costs during navigation and thus conserving energy.
Meanwhile, because the operating time of diesel generator engines is vastly reduced, replacement periods for consumable parts become longer and maintenance check costs are reduced.
It can be applied to cheaper fixed-pitch propellers and can be operated continuously in parallel with diesel generators on board.
Model:SIG, SPG, SHG,and SFEK are available, depending on the method of installation.
