Simrad RF300 transmission lever assembly

The RF300 Simrad RF300 tiller drive assembly (part number 20193678) is a critical mechanical component. It is an integral part of the Simrad RF300 rudder angle sensor unit and links the physical movement of the tiller to the sensor, ensuring accurate transmission of position data.

The main role of this lever assembly is to provide the mechanical connection required for the RF300 rudder angle sensor to accurately determine the rudder angle. This precise transmission is essential for the proper operation and responsiveness of the autopilot.

This lever assembly is specifically designed for autopilot systems on boats equipped with inboard engines.

This is an active spare part. It is intended to replace an existing defective or worn tiller arm, or to complement an RF300 rudder angle sensor system.

The RF300 rudder angle sensor, which this lever assembly integrates with, is a medium to high-resolution unit. It provides a variable frequency output for direct connection to autopilot computers, enabling precise rudder angle measurement.

The accuracy of position data transmission from the helm is critical. It ensures smooth, responsive, and precise autopilot operation, helping to avoid overcorrections and maintain optimal course-keeping for the boat.

Yes, like all Simrad equipment, the RF300 transmission lever assembly is designed to operate reliably and durably in demanding marine environments, characterized by humidity and salt.

The product reference (SKU) for the Simrad RF300 transmission lever assembly is 20193678.

This transmission lever assembly is a Simrad Yachting product.

This item belongs to the rudder angle sensor family (Rudder Sensor) and is classified as a component or spare part for Simrad autopilot systems.

The RF300 transmission lever assembly is a purely mechanical component. Its function is to establish a physical connection and transmit the movement of the tiller to the rudder angle sensor, which is itself an electronic component.

No, this lever assembly is a Simrad spare part designed specifically to integrate and operate only with the Simrad RF300 rudder angle sensor.

No, the RF300 transmission lever assembly is specifically designed for autopilot systems on boats equipped with inboard engines.

It is compatible with Simrad autopilots that use the RF300 rudder angle sensor. Compatibility therefore depends on the use of this specific sensor in your autopilot system.

Yes, installing and integrating this component into an existing autopilot system requires technical knowledge of marine mechanics and navigation systems. It is often recommended to use a qualified professional for the installation.

The lever assembly ensures a direct mechanical connection with the RF300 rudder angle sensor. It is designed to fit precisely to accurately transmit the helm movement to the sensor, although specific mounting details are not provided.

Yes, replacing a mechanical component linked to the rudder angle sensor can potentially affect the system's accuracy. It is generally recommended to check and, if necessary, recalibrate the autopilot after installing the new lever to ensure optimal performance and navigation accuracy.
