The YDK Tech Yokogawa CMZ900 Gyro Compass offers precise heading data and unmatched reliability for all kinds of ships. This marine navigation system combines accuracy, durability, and simplicity in one compact unit. With its advanced features, it meets the needs of both small and large commercial vessels.
Compact and Smart Navigation Solution
This gyro compass features a compact and lightweight design. As a result, it is easy to install on any vessel. It also connects smoothly with existing autopilot systems. Because of this seamless integration, the CMZ900 helps improve overall navigation performance.
Speed Error Correction
Speed errors can affect navigation accuracy. However, the CMZ900 tackles this problem with both manual and automatic correction modes. These settings ensure that heading data remains accurate at all speeds. So, your ship stays on course with confidence.
Shock Resistance and Stability
Thanks to its anti-vibration feature, this compass performs well even in rough seas. It uses high-viscosity damping oil, which reduces the impact of external shocks. This results in a more stable and reliable heading signal, even during strong waves or engine vibrations.
Fast and Smooth Response
The compass is designed to respond quickly to course changes. With a fast reaction time, the CMZ900 provides real-time data with no delay. This feature becomes vital when navigating through narrow channels or avoiding obstacles. Your ship reacts on time, every time.
Rugged Build for Long Use
The titanium capsule used in this gyro compass makes it strong and long-lasting. It is built for tough marine environments. Also, the design allows for long maintenance intervals, reducing downtime. In case of emergency, the GYROSPHERE can be replaced easily, even without expert help.
Wide Range of Applications
This compass works well on a variety of vessels. From small fishing boats to large cargo ships, it meets every need. Its wide operating temperature range (-10°C to +55°C) ensures stable performance in different climates. Whether you’re sailing near the poles or through tropical waters, the CMZ900 stays dependable.
