NAVIGAT X MK 2

Based on the proven Sperry Marine NAVIGAT X MK 1 design, the NAVIGAT X MK 2 Gyrocompass provides more than 40,000 hours mean time between failures (MTBF). The system remains north-stabilized for up to three minutes in the event of a power interruption.

Type approved
The NAVIGAT X MK 2 Gyrocompass complies with the International Maritime Organization (IMO) regulations  and International Standards Organization (ISO) standard 8728 and is fully type-approved.

Features of the NAVIGAT X MK 2:

  • Control and display unit (not removable) in front cover with 4-digit heading display and six operating keys
  • Heading accuracy:
    • Static <0.1° secant latitude
    • Dynamic <0.4° secant latitude
    • Settle point error <0.1° secant latitude
  • Automatic static north speed error correction - no extra unit required
  • Rate-of-turn output
  • High speed transmission and follow-up system 100° / sec
  • Highly accurate heading data transmission by means of shaft encoder
  • Self-aligning repeater compasses with serial interface IEC-61162-1 / RS422
  • Twin rotors (19,000 rev / min) and liquid damping system eliminate latitude error
  • A ±180° electronic alignment error correction in setup program (mechanical correction is not necessary)
  • Maintenance intervals of 18 months
  • Monitoring and alarm functions for all voltages, gyroscope current and follow-up system
  • Permanent storage of operational data (gyrosphere current, temperature, elapsed operation time)
