eCompass Selector Guide

Product catalog summary

Features & Benefits: The document outlines the features and benefits of various eCompass series, including ECS, ECG, ECV, and ECL. Key features include wide operating temperature range, single supply operation, RS232 & RS485 outputs, in-system configuration and test, exceptional dynamic performance, high static accuracy, and low power consumption.

Applications: The eCompass series is suitable for a range of applications such as robotics, platform stabilization, excavation machinery, irrigation equipment, unmanned vehicles, weather buoys, antenna positioning, and marine navigation.

Heading Performance: The document provides specifications for heading accuracy, repeatability, range, and settling time for different eCompass models. Accuracy ranges from ±0.2° to ±0.3°, with a settling time of 0.5 seconds for most models.

Pitch & Roll Performance: Specifications include accuracy, repeatability, response time, dip angle range, tilt range, and update rate. Accuracy is generally ±0.5° rms2, with a response time of 36 to 75 milliseconds.

Electrical Specifications: Details on supply current, voltage, and standby power for each model are provided. Operating currents range from 15 mA to 40 mA, with standby currents as low as 50 μA.

Environmental Specifications: Operating temperature ranges from -40° to +105°C for most models, with survival temperatures extending to +150°C. Humidity tolerance is 0 to 90%.

Mechanical Specifications: Enclosure dimensions, materials, and weights are specified for both plastic and aluminum options. Connectors vary between models, with options for 8-pin headers and circular connectors.

Sensors: The eCompass series includes various sensor configurations, such as 3-axis magnetometers, 2-axis tilt sensors, gyroscopes, and accelerometers.

Customization and Engineering Support: Jewell Instruments offers customization options, including modifying existing models, creating new application-specific designs, and providing proprietary sensor solutions under NDA.
