Mast angle sensor

MAST ANGLE

To correctly calculate the wind angle of a rotating mast, it is necessary to compensate for the rotation angle data supplied by the wind direction sensor (MHU).

Thanks to the exposed location where it is usually mounted (at the base of the mast), it has been designed to withstand the elements , including the impact of waves .

The sensor can be supplied with a rotation pulley to rotate a mast, or a rotating arm, for use in an autopilot system. Rotation data is sent directly to the nke bus, an interface which is included.

Depending on the diameter of the secondary pulley to which the sensor is connected, a calibration coefficient can be entered.

ANALOG MONITOR INTERFACE

Ideal for standard sensors (mast angle sensor, keel angle sensor, tank gauges, etc.), allowing sensor data to be displayed on all Topline displays .

For other custom sensors, data is displayed on multigraphics on a configurable dynamic channel: choice of unit format and label. Analog or digital display.

Up to 8 customizable channels!

Note:
Customized interface configuration at NKE.
