Rudder Indicator Gauge - (ROD-5)
SKU: 110621
Rudder Indicator Gauge - (ROD-5) - analogue rudder position gauge for precise monitoring of 40º of rudder movement in both port and starboard directions from the center (0º) position. This essential marine instrument provides real-time feedback on rudder angle, crucial for maintaining accurate course control and vessel maneuverability.
The ROD-5 rudder indicator gauge is particularly valuable when navigating tight and crowded waterways, such as marinas, narrow channels, or busy ports. It allows the helmsman to make precise steering adjustments, enhancing overall vessel control and safety in challenging navigational situations.
This analogue rudder position gauge is designed to work seamlessly with the ROD-5 rudder indicator sender, ensuring reliable and accurate rudder angle readings. The sender unit, typically mounted near the rudder post, translates the physical rudder movement into an electrical signal that is displayed on the gauge.
To maintain a cohesive and aesthetically pleasing instrument panel, the ROD-5 rudder indicator gauge is available in all standard face and bezel colors. This allows for perfect continuity with other onboard gauges and instruments, creating a professional and unified look in the helm station or navigation area.
* NOTE: The ROD-5 rudder indicator system features dual outputs, allowing for the simultaneous connection of two gauges to a single sender unit. This functionality is particularly useful for vessels with multiple helm stations or those requiring rudder position information in separate locations.
* NOTE: It's important to be aware that this ROD-5 rudder indicator gauge is not backwards compatible with the discontinued ROD-4 sender. Ensure you have the correct sender unit when installing or upgrading your rudder position monitoring system.
The 52mm diameter of the ROD-5 rudder indicator gauge makes it a standard size for most marine instrument panels, facilitating easy installation and replacement. Its analogue display provides an intuitive, at-a-glance reading of rudder position, which can be especially beneficial in high-stress or low-visibility situations where quick information processing is crucial.
The ROD-5 rudder indicator gauge is also available in a larger 85mm gauge for increased visibility on your dashboard or helm.
