  | ECDIS NX Navigating with ECDIS has never been so easy! ECDIS NX is the first “user-defined” Electronic Chart Display and Information System (ECDIS) application designed under continuous feedback from navigators. This makes the ECDIS NX intuitive to operate, and thanks to its ever-growing scope of features it effectively supports the daily tasks and use cases of navigators. Main Features Smart tools for voyage management, such as wizard-based route planning or creating new routes from past tracks Graphical editing of routes, supported through intuitive interaction patterns Estimated Time of Arrival (ETA) and Speed Of Advance (SOA) calculation for individual waypoints Comprehensive and intuitive own ship behaviour prediction Editable look ahead zones for anti-collision, route monitoring and anti-grounding Filter tools to reduce unnecessary alarms Support of Admiralty Information Overlay (AIO) Most probable position and pool of errors (safe positioning) |
  | Standard 22 NX Accuracy and reliability under all environmental conditions Anschütz designed the Standard 22 NX gyrocompass for high accuracy, reliability and operational safety even under the harshest environmental conditions for all kind of ships. With interfaces for serial data, Ethernet and Bridge Alert Management (BAM), it offers an easy installation and integration. The Standard 22 NX is available as a standalone system or as part of an advanced heading management system. Main Features High accuracy of 0.4° sec Lat. RMS Inductive and optical data transmission, no slip rings that are subject to wear Speed/latitude error correction Connected via CAN bus, enabling cable lengths of up to 400m (in comparison to Ethernet connections that can only reach a maximum of 80m) Webserver functionality for configuration, software updates and diagnosis, configuration possible in 2 minutes by upload of configuration file Quick settling mode reduces settling time to 1 hour Approved as gyrocompass, gyrocompass for high speed craft, and rate-of-turn indicator This system provides a redundancy of the distribution system in addition to the redundancy of compasses. No single failure in this configuration causes a loss of heading information to the connected heading receivers. Such a system (with two gyros) is compliant to the demanding class notations such as DNV NAUT-OSV/OC/AW, LR IBS or ABS NIBS. This system allows the connection to up to three gyrocompasses (or two gyrocompasses and one GNSS compass) and integrates a magnetic compass. In addition to the 4 serial outputs of Standard 22 NX, 12 outputs for the connection of heading receivers such as repeaters, autopilots, radars and others are available. Sensors are selected with the operator unit. The threshold for a heading difference between different compasses can be defined by the user and is continuously monitored. Thanks to the CAN bus, the wiring effort between the compass components is reduced to a minimum. Standard 22 NX M continues the series of Anschütz gyrocompasses for naval ships. With the same advantages as the commercial Standard 22 NX, it has proven its outstanding reliability and robustness in a long-term factory test and is also qualified acc. to MIL Standard and BV0430. Thanks to its various interfaces and formats for serial data communication, Ethernet communication and BAM, it is easy to install in newbuilds and refits. |
  | Standard 30 MF Maintenance-free gyrocompass The Hemispherical Resonator Gyroscope (HRG) is a high-performance angular rate sensor. The Anschütz Standard 30 MF Gyrocompass is a maintenance-free gyrocompass based on this HRG technology. It provides a multitude of features and is easy to integrate into the most varied system environments in newbuild and refit projects. The Standard 30 MF is available as a standalone system or as part of an advanced heading management system. Main Features No maintenance, high cost-effectiveness over entire lifetime High accuracy of 0.25° sec Lat. Speed/latitude error correction CAN bus based real time network with up to 400m cable length Settling time of only 30 minutes, settles at rough sea states Heading sensor, ROT and MRU in one (roll and pitch output), reduces investment and maintenance cost Webserver functionality for configuration, software updates and diagnosis Approved as gyrocompass, gyrocompass for high-speed crafts and rate-of-turn gyro |
   | 1. Steering Repeater Compass Clear indication of the heading information The Steering Repeater ensures a clear indication of the heading information by using a 360° and a 10° compass card. In addition, heading information is shown on a digital display. Both the analogue and the digital display provide a graduation of a tenth of a degree. The heading source indication displays the source of heading information such as gyro-, satellite or magnetic compasses. Main Features Analogue and digital display Heading source indication 180° offset function for use on double-end ferries Dimmer, anti-glare screen 2. Bearing Repeater Compass 360° compass card and digital display The Bearing Repeater Compass is equipped with a 360° compass card and a digital display for heading indication. The heading source (gyro-, magnetic or satellite compass) is also indicated. Bearing sights can be easily mounted on the centric adapter. The 360° dial on the compass card is used for the reflection into the bearing sight. A fixed 360° scale on the outer ring allows relative bearings to be taken. For use on double-end ferries, a 180° offset can be added. Illumination is controlled via push-button. Bearing sights, bearing brackets and a pelorus stand are available. Main Features 150mm compass card Analogue and digital display Heading source indication 180° offset function for use on double-end ferries Dimmer 3. Digital Repeater Compass Heading indication on a large display The Digital Repeater Compass indicates the heading and rate of turn as a tendency indication. Heading changes are shown through a two-colour LED ring indicator. Depending on the rate of turn, the LED ring rotates – towards starboard in green and towards port in red. The speed is proportional to the rate of turn of the ship which is a helpful indication. Heading can be read easily from different viewing angles up to a distance of ten metres. Main Features Large display Rate of turn indication Optional casing for bulkhead or ceiling mounting Freeze function 180° offset function for use on double-end ferries |
  | NautoPilot 5000 NX Where high precision meets efficiency NautoPilot 5000 NX is the advanced Anschütz autopilot for ships. It features well-known, unique Anschütz algorithms for automatic steering that ensure highly precise steering performance whenever it is needed, even at low speeds. In addition, NautoPilot 5000 NX includes the world’s most comprehensive range of fuel-saving features that reduce emissions and cost. Reduced fuel consumption also improves the Carbon Intensity Indicator (CII) rating of the respective ship. Fuel-saving autopilot Speed, rudder movements, weather conditions and ship characteristics all affect the steering performance. Years of experience in the field have shown that Anschütz autopilots significantly contribute to fuel savings when adapted to these conditions correctly. The NautoPilot 5000 NX has been developed based on this experience and offers the widest range of features on the market that, alone or in combination, help to reduce fuel consumption by up to 5%.
