The marine market has been excited since we introduced this second generation Furuno Satellite Compass, the Furuno SC50 Satellite Compass, which utilizes Furuno¨s advanced GPS Kinematic technology, and some ultra slim styling.
Furuno Satellite Compass technology performance is not affected by ship¨s speed, latitude, geomagnetism, etc. This hybrid integration of GPS receiver technology and a 3-axis solid-state rate sensor provide accurate and steady heading information, even when bridges or tall buildings block satellite signals. Unlike conventional magnetic and gyro compasses, accuracy is not affected by G-force or velocity. Furthermore, when the Furuno SC50 Satellite Compass is compared to other GPS based compass systems incorporating only two antennas, our addition of a third GPS antenna provides enhanced accuracy while reducing the negative effects of pitch, roll, and yaw.
The Furuno SC50 Satellite Compass offers highly accurate GPS WAAS Data for SOG, COG, ROT, and L/L. Multiple, programmable hi-speed heading data outputs allow you to send this information where you need it, and our unique Analog Pitch and Roll Output can be used to enhance your Furuno Sonar System. The Furuno SC50 Satellite Compass is a standard install item on most cruising yachts, fishboats, and work boats.
Furuno SC50 Satellite Compass Provide Multiple Displays: Furuno SC50 Satellite Compass Processor Unit: The Furuno SC50 Satellite Compass is ideal as an alternative to a traditionally expensive and high-maintenance gyrocompass for non-compulsory vessels, as well as being the perfect back up solution to a gyro for a compulsory vessel. The Furuno SC50 Satellite Compass offers a wide range of applications for providing fast, stable, precision heading information to numerous devices, including: Radar/ARPA, Satellite Communications & TV systems, Autopilots (based upon I/F type), AIS, ECDIS, Scanning Sonar, Chart Plotters, and other marine electronics devices
