Furuno SC-130 Satellite Compass

SC-130 features a Tri-sensor antenna that provides a high system accuracy for the heading of your vessel. ThIs satellite compasses proves its value by increasing the accuracy of other devices, such as Radar, ARPA, Scanning Sonar, Current Indicator, Chart Plotter, ECDIS and Autopilots. Providing a highly accurate heading input to these other technologies by utilizing the very latest GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System). This satellite system is comprised of GPS, Galileo and GLONASS to ensure the highest precision and a continuous coverage.

The Satellite Compass provides a variety of data, including GPS Positioning, SOG (Speed Over Ground), COG (Course Over Ground), ROT (Rate Of Turn) and 3-axis speed (bow, stern and longitudinal). All of these data assist with critical maneuvers, such as berthing. The Compass is maintenance-free – a great asset for any vessel – and connects easily into the existing shipboard network via Ethernet connection.

Provides highly accurate heading data for Autopilot, Radar, ARPA, Scanning Sonar, Current Indicator, Chart Plotter, ECDIS and Autopilot

• 0.25°rms (with SC-130) Ideal for medium to large vessels navigating in crowded ports and making precise manoeuvres, such as berthing.

Utilizes GNSS such as GPS, Galileo and GLONASS for high precision

• SBAS compatible (EGNOS,WAAS, MSAS)
• Provide precise data for SOG, COG, ROT and L/L
• Eliminating the problem of not having enough satellites at hand by using multiple types of satellites
