The Gyro Sphere is a crucial part of the gyrocompass system and functions by using a spinning gyroscope to maintain a reference to true north. This is important because even when a ship is moving through rough seas, the Gyro Sphere can still provide an accurate heading, which is critical for safe navigation.
Here are some key features of the YDK Yokogawa CMZ900 Gyro Sphere MKT-007:
• Highly reliable and long lifespan: The Gyro Sphere is built to withstand the harsh marine environment and can last for several years with proper maintenance.
• Titanium capsule and electrodes: These components help to maintain purity inside the Gyro Sphere, reducing the need for frequent maintenance.
• Ship-crew replaceable: The modular design of the CMZ900 series allows the ship’s crew to replace the Gyro Sphere themselves in case of an emergency.
The typical lifespan of a Gyro Sphere is around 5 years, and they require annual inspections to ensure they are functioning properly. During these inspections, the supporting fluid and gasket set are usually replaced.
