The Simrad HS75 GNSS Compass (Model 000-16143-001) is a commercial-grade, high-performance heading and positioning sensor designed for marine vessels requiring precision navigation. It provides superior accuracy, crucial for operating autopilot systems, radar, and sonar equipment, even while stationary.
Product Overview
The HS75 GNSS compass offers 0.75-degree heading accuracy, significantly outperforming traditional magnetic compasses. It integrates six-axis gyro and tilt sensors to deliver precise heading, position (GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, BeiDou, QZSS), rate of turn, heave, pitch, and roll data.
Key Features
- Multi-GNSS Support: Receives signals from GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, BeiDou, and QZSS for unparalleled reliability.
- Precise Heading & Position: 0.75-degree heading accuracy (RMS) and 10 Hz position/heading update rates.
- Stationary Accuracy: Provides precise heading information even when the boat is not moving.
- Robust Navigation Data: Outputs vessel heading, position, Rate of Turn (ROT), pitch, roll, and heave.
- Easy Installation: Features a small, compact form factor (35 cm length) with plug-and-play NMEA 2000 connectivity.
- Reliable Performance: Six-axis gyro provides backup heading data during temporary satellite signal loss.
