Mad Sensor, 90° stýrishjólarhornsviðtakandi með einfaldri útgöngu

The MADINTEC Mad Sensor is a high-precision rudder angle sensor, designed as a key component of the MADBrain autopilot system. It measures the rudder angle to provide ultra-fine data to the navigation processor.

The Mad Sensor is designed to measure a rudder angle of up to 90°.

The Mad Sensor provides a resolution of 22.5° per volt. This specification is higher than that of many standard sensors on the market.

The Mad Sensor is an active sensor with a single output.

The output voltage range of the Mad Sensor is 0.5 to 4.5 V.

The Mad Sensor stands out for its high precision and resolution of 22.5°/volt for 90° (compared to standard sensors that may offer 72°/volt for 360°). This fine measurement resolution enables the MADBrain system to acquire ultra-precise rudder data, improving course-keeping and autopilot responsiveness.

Yes, the Mad Sensor features reinforced waterproofing, ensuring reliable operation in demanding marine environments.

Yes, the Mad Sensor is designed with low power consumption, helping optimize the autopilot's overall energy usage.

The MADINTEC Mad Sensor is manufactured in France.

The Mad Sensor is a fundamental component of the MADBrain autopilot system. It provides high-precision rudder angle data, essential for the artificial intelligence algorithms of the MADBrain navigation processor, ensuring smooth and accurate course-keeping.

The Mad Sensor is designed and optimized as a fundamental component of the MADBrain autopilot system. While it provides a standard voltage output (0.5–4.5V), its performance is maximized when integrated with the MADBrain system for which it was specifically developed.

The MADBrain system, of which the Mad Sensor is a component, is designed for native integration with the NMEA 2000 network. The Mad Sensor itself provides an analog output to the MADBrain, which then handles the NMEA 2000 communication.

The Mad Sensor measures rudder angle. The MADController, another unit in the MADBrain system, is compatible with the control of any electric or hydraulic ram, whether linear or rotary.

The Mad Sensor offers a resolution of 22.5° per volt over a 90° range. In comparison, standard sensors often operate over a 0 to 5 V range for 360°, which corresponds to approximately 72° per volt. This means the Mad Sensor provides a much finer and more precise measurement of rudder angle.

The main function of the Mad Sensor is to measure the tiller angle with very high precision, providing critical data to the MADBrain autopilot system for stable and responsive navigation.

The Mad Sensor is an active single-output sensor with a voltage range of 0.5 to 4.5 V. It is designed to connect directly to the MADBrain navigation processor, which centralizes and processes this high-resolution data for its algorithms.

Yes, by providing rudder angle data with such precision, the Mad Sensor enables the MADBrain system to make finer, more optimized corrections. This directly reduces stress on the ram and results in smoother navigation, which can potentially extend its lifespan.

The Mad Sensor is covered by MADINTEC's standard manufacturer warranty. For specific details regarding warranty duration and conditions, please refer to the manufacturer's or retailer's official terms and conditions of sale.

The MADBrain system, which includes the Mad Sensor, is used on a wide range of vessels, including cruising catamarans, IRC monohulls, and superyachts. The Mad Sensor, as a high-precision rudder angle sensor, is a universally useful component for any autopilot system requiring accurate rudder angle measurement.

The Mad Sensor weighs 0.21 kg.
