Site requir ements Fluxgate Compass transducer The Fluxgate Compass transducer should be positioned as near as possible to the pitch/roll centre of the vessel, as shown in the shaded areas below.
14 ST40 Compass Instrument Owner ’ s Handbook The Fluxgate Compass transducer must also be sited: • At least 0.8 m (2 ft 6 in) away from the vessel's steering compass to avoid deviation in both compasses. • On a bulkhead below deck. Note: On steel vessels the Fluxgate Compass transducer can be mounted above deck.
Chapter 3: Installation 15 3.2 Procedur es Adapt these procedures as appropriate, to suit your individual requirement. CAUTION: Where it is necessary to cut holes (e.g. for cable routing and instrument mounting), ensure that these will not cause a hazard by weakening critical parts of the vessel’s structure.
16 ST40 Compass Instrument Owner ’ s Handbook 76 mm (3 in) 76 mm (3 in) D729-6 If you are not sure of the magnetic suitability of the chosen location, carry out a survey of the site as follows: 1. Temporarily fix a simple hand bearing compass at the intended location.
