MD53A/B ELECTROMAGNETIC FLUXGATE COMPASS

MARINE DATA

Introducing the MD53A/B Earth’s Field Electro-Magnetic Compass

The MD53A/B is a cutting-edge Earth’s Field Electro-Magnetic Compass that directly senses the Earth's magnetic field without the need for a host magnetic compass. It serves as the core sensing element in a solid-state Electro Magnetic Compass (EMC) system, offering a reliable alternative or backup to gyro systems.

Key Features:

  • Independent compass component within a Marine Data EMC system
  • Directly senses Earth's magnetic field
  • Provides digital NMEA 0183 heading data (HDT, HDG, HDM) with the MD97CSP Compass Sensor Processor
  • Weatherproof housing suitable for marine environments
  • Constructed from robust aluminium alloy with a Window Grey (RAL7040) Semi-gloss Powder Coat finish

Applications:

The MD53A/B serves as the source of NMEA 0183 Digital Heading Data within a Marine Data Transmitting Heading Device (THD) System, offering a dependable alternative or backup to gyro compasses for vessel heading. Flexible in application, easy to install, and simple to maintain, the MD53A/B Electro-Magnetic Compass from Marine Data is designed to integrate seamlessly into marine navigation systems.
