Furuno SC33 Satellite Compass

The Furuno SC33 is a remarkable compact dome satellite compass with NMEA2000 interface and 0.4 - degree heading accuracy. It comes with a 6M cable. This satellite compass offers highly accurate attitude data for various navigation equipment like radar, plotter, autopilot, fish finder, and sonar. Its compact GNSS antenna and built - in processor make it suitable for a wide range of vessels. The all - in - one system provides extremely accurate heading, roll, pitch, heaving information, GPS position, SOG, COG, and ROT data. Using a two - antenna system with 3 - axis gyro and acceleration sensors, the SC33 has high - speed response. Advanced digital signal processing computes accurate heading from sensor data. The standard NMEA2000 interface ensures easy installation, and an optional IF - NMEASC interface unit is available for conventional NMEA0183, AD10, and contact closure. A new GNSS antenna and advanced parallel signal processing make the SC33 more precise in pitch, roll, and heading measurement than traditional models, enhancing the performance of connected equipment. Its Micro - C pigtail NMEA2000 cable is flexible for use in difficult areas. The SC33 uses a dual GNSS antenna system and 3 - axis sensors to calculate highly accurate roll and pitch data without a third sensor. Specifications include Radome antenna type, separate display supply, 12 - 24 VDC power usage, NMEA2000 data type, GPS receiver type. The package includes the SC33 unit, a 6m NMEA drop cable, hardware, adhesive, and documentation.

Using the Furuno SC33 is quite straightforward. First, install the unit on your vessel following the included instructions. Connect the 6M NMEA drop cable to the appropriate equipment. Power it up with a 12 - 24 VDC power supply. Once it's on, it will start providing accurate navigation data. When using, make sure the antenna has a clear view of the sky for better signal reception. Avoid placing it near large metal objects that could interfere with the signal. For maintenance, keep the unit clean and dry. Check the cables regularly for any signs of wear or damage. If you need to use the optional interface unit, follow the additional instructions provided. The documentation in the box has all the details you need for a smooth operation of the Furuno SC33.
