Enhance Steering Accuracy with the SIMRAD RF25N NMEA2000 RUDDER SENSOR
The SIMRAD RF25N NMEA2000 RUDDER SENSOR offers accurate and reliable rudder-angle feedback for a wide range of vessels, making it an ideal choice for improving steering performance and autopilot efficiency. This compact and durable unit integrates seamlessly into an NMEA 2000 network, and it helps boat owners, captains, and installers achieve precise control during navigation. Since it delivers real-time rudder data, it allows safer manoeuvring, especially in narrow marinas, busy harbours, or when cruising at higher speeds.
Robust Construction for Marine Environments
The RF25N comes with a marine-grade build that ensures long-lasting performance, even in demanding sea conditions. Moreover, the internal components support consistent operation across varying temperatures and environments. The unit includes an N2K Micro-C connector, which simplifies installation and reduces setup time. In addition, the adjustable mechanical linkage makes it suitable for different steering systems, including mechanical, hydraulic, and power-assisted configurations.
Seamless Autopilot Integration
Smooth autopilot operation depends heavily on accurate rudder feedback, therefore choosing the right sensor proves crucial. With this device, autopilot response becomes more precise, especially during course corrections or when holding a steady heading. The RF25N works efficiently with Simrad autopilot systems, ensuring enhanced steering performance and fuel-efficient route-keeping. Furthermore, the sensor helps optimise trim adjustments and reduces unnecessary steering movements, ultimately improving onboard comfort.
Easy Setup and Calibration
Installation remains straightforward, and calibration takes only a few minutes. Step-by-step adjustments allow users to fine-tune the sensor to match the vessel’s steering geometry. As a result, the autopilot receives the most accurate feedback possible. Additionally, the compact size gives installers flexibility when choosing a mounting location, even in tight steering compartments.
Ideal for Leisure and Commercial Use
Whether you operate a sailing yacht, motor cruiser, or commercial vessel, this sensor provides consistent and dependable feedback. The SIMRAD RF25N NMEA2000 RUDDER SENSOR suits both new builds and upgrade projects, therefore making it a smart investment for enhanced control and safety on the water.
