Description
ORBIT L01323004 SP Ocean TRx INERTIAL MEASUREMENT UNIT (Ka)
Field Replacement P/N : OTRx4-IMU-001-SP
A strap-down solid-state INERTIAL MEASUREMENT UNIT (IMU) is installed on the PEDESTAL and provides extremely accurate dynamic readings of the platform’s sea movement to the ACU. The ACU stabilizes the ANTENNA accordingly in real-time via the SERVO SUBSYSTEM.
The IMU reports the following data:
-
- Pitch and roll – Short-term data measured by two RATE-GYRO SENSORS dynamically integrated by the ACU with long-term data measured by two INCLINOMETERS.
- Yaw variations – Short-term data measured by a RATE-GYRO SENSOR, dynamically integrated by the ACU with long-term yaw data received from the ship’s gyrocompass
