(8.4) Hemisphere Vector V103 Heading Smart Antenna

Description

Experience the IMO Wheelmarked Vector™ V103™ GPS Compass series for its superb heading and positioning performance. The new, rugged IP69K design housing is sealed for the harshest environments. It incorporates fixed and pole mounting capability for both marine and land applications. The Vector V103 Series is suitable for both commercial and professional marine, as well as for machine mounting in open pit mining, construction and other applications. The V103 and V113 utilize all of the recent innovations in Hemisphere GPS’ Crescent® and Vector technology. New Cross- Dipole low-multipath antennas are separated by 50 cm between phase centers, resulting in better than 0.3° rms heading performance while delivering position accuracy of better than 60 cm 95% of the time when using SBAS (EGNOS, MSAS & WAAS) or Beacon corrections.

The V103 and V113 support both NMEA 0183 and NMEA 2000 interfacing, enabling a seamless choice of communication
protocols with Hemisphere GPS’ messaging. Crescent Vector technology delivers accurate and continuous performance,
including position, heading, heave, pitch and roll. The stability and maintenance-free design of the Vector V103 Series
replaces traditional gyrocompasses and stand-alone GPS at a fraction of the cost.
