High-Speed Marine Fluxgate Compass Sensor for Advanced Navigation Systems

This high-speed electronic fluxgate compass delivers fast and accurate heading data essential for modern marine navigation systems. With a 10Hz update rate, it supports radar overlays, MARPA target tracking, and true motion chart plotting. Designed for versatility, it offers NMEA 0183 output as standard, with a NMEA 2000 version available through an included gateway for easy installation. Its gimballed design ensures stable readings even under heel, and it features auto-calibration, manual offset adjustment, and waterproof construction, making it ideal for demanding marine environments.

Key Features

  • 10Hz high-speed heading output: Provides rapid heading updates required for MARPA target tracking and accurate radar overlay displays.
  • Dual output options: Standard NMEA 0183 heading output with optional NMEA 2000 integration using the included iKonvert gateway.
  • Auto-calibration and manual offset adjustment: Ensures precise heading data by compensating for installation variances and magnetic influences.
  • Gimballed fluxgate sensor: Maintains accurate heading measurements up to 45° of heel, ensuring reliable data under sail or in rough seas.
  • Waterproof IPx7 rating: Allows external mounting, including on steel-hulled vessels, for flexible installation options.
  • Rate of Turn (ROT) version available: Special model outputs HDT and ROT sentences for Class A transponders, enhancing AIS performance.
  • Low power consumption: Operates efficiently on 12/24V DC systems, ideal for sail and powerboats.
  • LED status indicators: Provides visual confirmation of power and operational status for easier diagnostics.
  • Compact design with 50ft cable: Simplifies installation by providing long cable runs to the nearest system connection point.

Engineered for precision and reliability, this compass sensor is the ideal upgrade for chartplotters, radars, and integrated navigation systems.
