Gyro Compass System(Anschütz)

Raytheon Anschütz Gyro Compass

Operational safety of the gyro compass was dramatically increased due to a unique technical design which uses a patented data transmission technology instead of using slip rings. Providing proven gyro compass technology and long maintenance periods, the Anschütz Standard 22 Gyro Compass is a long time secure investment with lowest operation costs. Since the Anschütz Standard 22 Gyro Compass was designed as a modular system, our customers can expect outstanding features in order to meet their individual requirements best.

Configurate the Gyro Compass

Up to three gyro sensors can be connected to one system and other sensors may be integrated additionally. As the first gyro compass system it integrates gyro, satellite and magnetic heading sensors.

The basic system consists of the gyro compass, an operator unit and a distribution unit. Within our retrofit solution we offer a series of universal course converters that enable to retain existing equipment as repeaters and autopilots when retrofitting an old gyro compass.

We also offer a fully redundant gyro compass system which complies with DNV NAUT-AW, NAUT-OC and NAUT-OSV. This system is equipped with a double gyro compass, double distribution unit and double operator unit and one change-over unit which means redundancy in compass and distribution. No single failure in this system will cause loss of heading information to the connected equipment.

The military version is the Anschütz Standard 22M Gyro Compass. In this configuration, Standard 22 also offers a special shock resistance to provide most precise navigation data in every situation.
