Stýri NAC-3 fyrir sjálfstýringu

The NAC-3 autopilot computer is designed for larger boats, typically over 10 meters (35 feet), that require high-current power units such as hydraulic pumps or powerful mechanical actuators.

The NAC-3 computer is compatible with 12V DC and 24V DC electrical systems. It can operate within a voltage range of 10 to 30 V DC.

The NAC-3 is highly versatile in terms of connectivity. It features the following ports:

NMEA 2000 (via a Micro-C port) for modern integration.NMEA 0183 (bidirectional port) for compatibility with older equipment.SimNet compatibility to integrate with existing Navico systems.

The NAC-3 controller is designed to manage power units (pumps, actuators) with a maximum consumption of 750 W. It can supply high continuous current for demanding applications.

A 30 Ampere fuse is recommended on the power line of the NAC-3 computer for adequate system protection.

The NAC-3 computer is part of the Navico ecosystem and is designed to integrate seamlessly with the multifunction displays from Simrad, Lowrance, and B&G brands.

The NAC-3 autopilot computer is designed to operate within a temperature range from -25°C to +55°C (-13°F to 131°F).

The NAC-3 is a more powerful version than the NAC-2. It is designed for larger vessels and can handle more power-hungry units (pumps and actuators) with higher output current and a maximum consumption of 750 W.

During installation, ensure the NAC-3 processor is placed at a minimum distance of 500 mm (20 inches) from any magnetic compass to avoid interference.

Yes, the NAC-3 includes advanced autopilot algorithms for sailing, notably an intelligent wind mode that automatically switches between apparent wind angle (AWA) and true wind angle (TWA) for optimal performance.

The NAC-3 autopilot computer weighs 0.7 kg (1.6 lbs).

SteadySteer is a technology that allows manual control of the helm without disabling the autopilot. The autopilot disengages automatically when you turn the helm and re-engages when you hold it steady.

Yes, the NAC-3 includes pre-programmed turning patterns that can be activated from a compatible display. These patterns include maneuvers such as circles or zigzags, useful for certain fishing or search activities.

The typical power consumption of the NAC-3 depends entirely on the power unit (pump or actuator) connected to it. The processor itself has very low power draw, with the majority of power being drawn by the rudder actuator.

The NAC-3 has a Load Equivalency Number (LEN) of 1 on the NMEA 2000 network. This corresponds to the standard electrical load of a device on the network, useful information for designing your NMEA 2000 network.

The NAC-3's NMEA 0183 port is versatile and supports multiple communication speeds (baud rates): 4.8, 9.6, 19.2, and 38.4 kbaud, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of devices.

The NAC-3 autopilot computer is covered by a 2-year manufacturer's warranty.

The NAC-3 computer is specifically designed for large vessels requiring high-power consumption units.

Maximum consumption: up to 750 W for hydraulic rams and pumps.Power supply: compatible with 12 V and 24 V DC systems.Protection: requires a recommended 30 A fuse.

The NAC-3 computer integrates seamlessly with multifunction displays from Simrad, Lowrance, and B&G.

In terms of network connectivity, it supports:

NMEA 2000: via a standard Micro-C port.NMEA 0183: bidirectional port for communication with older equipment.SimNet: compatibility ensured for existing installations.

The NAC-3 processor housing meets IPX5 waterproofing standards, providing effective protection against water spray in a marine environment.

During installation, it is critical to maintain a minimum safety distance of 500 mm (50 cm) from any magnetic compass to avoid interference.
