The new Meridian Surveyor boasts a wide range of
interfaces to enable use on any marine vessel. The unit utilises a DTG gyro
element which provides exceptional performance with an accuracy unmatched by
even the latest fibre optic designs. Unlike conventional spinning mass
gyrocompasses, the Meridian Surveyor uses a dry tuned element (DTG) that
removes the need for routine maintenance thereby significantly reducing cost
of ownership. |
 |
The remarkably stable heading can be maintained for turn rates in excess of 200° per
second making the system ideal for use on fast survey craft and in river/harbour
environments. The Meridian Surveyor gyrocompass is backed by the largest global
support network of any manufacturer, TSS has complete repair, test and calibration
facilities in the UK and USA aided by factory trained service engineers on every continent.
Gyrocompass Meridian Surveyor complies with the requirements of IMO A
424(XI),
IMO A 821(1bv9), BS EN 60945, BS EN ISO 8728.1994, BS 6217. 1981 CE Marking,
Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) Directive and the Marine Equipment Directive 96/98/EC.
