Lowrance Precision 9 Compass

LOWRANCE Precision 9 Compass | Accurate 9-Axis Marine Heading Sensor

Navigate with unparalleled confidence and unlock the full potential of your onboard electronics with the LOWRANCE Precision 9 Compass. Engineered for boaters who demand supreme accuracy and reliability, this advanced heading sensor provides the critical data your autopilot, radar, and navigation systems need to perform at their best. Say goodbye to guesswork and compass lag; the Precision-9 delivers exceptionally precise heading and rate-of-turn information, ensuring your vessel´s position and orientation are displayed with pinpoint accuracy on your chartplotter, even in the most challenging sea conditions. It is the definitive upgrade for any modern marine navigation network, providing a stable and trustworthy data source for safer, more efficient journeys on the water.

The Precision-9 Compass outputs Heading (20Hz), Rate Of Turn (20 Hz), roll, and pitch (10 hZ) over the NMEA 2000® network. The Precision-9 Compass supplies heading and rate-of-turn information to Simrad, B&G and Lowrance autopilot, radar and navigation systems. Based on reliable solid-state sensor technology, this compact compass offers easy installation aboard any vessel. This high-frequency output ensures ultra-smooth vessel movement on your display and provides your autopilot with the rapid-update information it needs for precise and responsive course-keeping.

The New Standard for Marine Compasses

The core of the Precision-9 is its sophisticated solid-state sensor technology. Unlike traditional compasses with moving parts that can be affected by sudden vessel movements or magnetic interference, the Precision-9 uses an internal array of solid-state sensors that measure motion and orientation across nine distinct axes. This 9-axis technology allows it to precisely calculate your boat´s heading and rate-of-turn, compensating for pitch and roll. The result is a consistently stable and accurate data feed that you can rely on for everything from precise radar overlay on your chart to holding a perfect trolling line with your autopilot.

Key Features and Unique Selling Points

Experience a new level of navigational clarity with these advanced features:

* Heading, Rate Of Turn (ROT), roll, and pitch output over NMEA 2000®
* Heading and ROT calculated using sensor data from 9 axes of rotation and motion
* Accurate and reliable solid-state sensor technology
* Heading accuracy of ±2° after calibration
* Easily adjustable mounting bracket allows bulkhead or up-mast installation
* IPX7 waterproof. Best in class.
* Simple installation with a single NMEA 2000® connection

Built for the Marine Environment

Durability and ease of use are central to the Precision-9´s design. Its compact housing is fully IPX7 waterproof, meaning it is built to withstand the harsh marine environment, whether from spray, rain, or even temporary submersion. Installation is incredibly straightforward thanks to its plug-and-play NMEA 2000® connectivity. A single cable provides both power and data, integrating the sensor seamlessly into your existing network without complex wiring. The versatile mounting bracket allows for flexible placement, including bulkhead mounting or even up-mast installation on sailing vessels, away from potential magnetic interference. Upgrade your boat´s sensory system and experience the difference that true precision makes on the water.
