Digital Yacht HSC100 High-Performance Fluxgate Sensor - ZDIGHSC100

The Digital Yacht HSC100 High-Performance Fluxgate Sensor is designed to provide accurate compass heading data for marine navigation systems. It utilizes fluxgate technology to deliver reliable and precise heading information, making it an essential component for various applications in the marine industry.

With the HSC100, you can enable course up and true motion displays on chart plotters, overlay radar onto electronic charts, and stabilize radars for MARPA/ARPA target tracking. It is also compatible with integrated instrument systems, allowing real-time tidal set and drift calculations when interfaced with a log and GPS.

Features:

• High speed (10Hz) NMEA electronic fluxgate compass sensor
• Ideal for use with radar overlay and MARPA target tracking systems
• Industry standard NMEA 0183 HDG output
• Gimbaled to 45 degrees
• 12/24V DC operation with minimal power consumption
• Waterproof to IPx7 and suitable for external mounting on steel-hulled vessels
• Automatic calibration routine and manual compass offset feature
• Additional AD10 heading output for interface with Furuno systems
• LED status indicator
• 15m interconnect cable

Most low-cost heading sensors only output data at 1Hz (once per second), but the HSC100 stands out by providing a 10Hz output. This higher frequency is crucial for MARPA target tracking and accurate radar overlays.

The HSC100 is designed to withstand harsh marine environments and can be mounted externally on steel-hulled vessels. Its waterproof construction ensures reliable performance even in challenging conditions. Furthermore, the sensor features an automatic calibration routine that compensates for nearby magnetic influences. By performing a simple calibration procedure, which involves turning the boat through 1.5 circles at a constant angular velocity, the HSC100 achieves typical accuracies within 0.5 degrees.
