About the ASC 281 Gyroscope

The gyroscopes of types ASC 281 and ASC 283 are based on proven MEMS vibrating ring sensor elements. The integrated electronic circuitry enables a very low noise quasidifferential analog voltage output (±2.0 V FSO) and flexible power supply voltage from 8 to 30 VDC. The tactical grade gyroscopes are available in different measurement ranges (10 °/s to 400 °/s) and providing an outstanding bias stability of <0.1 °/hr and an excellent angular random walk of <0.01 °/√hr. The uniaxial gyroscopes ASC 281 and triaxial gyroscopes ASC 283 feature a lightweight, reliable aluminum housing with protection class IP65 and a detachable cable with configurable length and connectors.

The excellent bias stability of these gyroscopes allows their use in applications such as gyro compassing, attitude heading reference systems AHRS or for orientation of underwater ROVs (remotely operated vehicles). Furthermore, as component of inertial systems the gyroscopes enable high-precision position measurements and bridging navigation in numerous areas of application, such as automated guided vehicles, ship guidance and control, robots, rail vehicles or aircraft systems.
