ASC 283 Tactical grade gyroscope (triaxial)
High-performance MEMS gyroscope for navigation, AHRS, and gyro-compassing with exceptional bias stability.
Key features
- Tactical grade MEMS vibrating ring technology
- Outstanding bias stability (<0.1 °/hr) and angular random walk (xtagstartz0.01 °/√hr)
- Measurement ranges from ±10 °/s to ±400 °/s
- Quasi-differential analog output with very low noise
- IP65-rated aluminum housing
- Available in uniaxial (ASC 281) and triaxial (ASC 283) versions
Performance highlights ASC 283 Gyroscope
The ASC 283 gyroscope feature MEMS vibrating ring elements with fiber-optic-like performance. This sensor provides excellent long-term bias stability, low angular random walk, and robust resistance to shock and vibration. Designed for precision navigation and motion tracking, they offer quasi-differential analog outputs with minimal noise and a wide input voltage range (8–30 VDC).
Usage conditions
With an IP65-rated anodized aluminum housing, both uniaxial (ASC 281) and triaxial (ASC 283) models can withstand tough environmental conditions. Operating between -40°C and +85°C, they are ideal for use in field or onboard systems. The detachable cables are configurable in length and connector type.
Possible applications
- Gyro-compassing and ship guidance
- Mid-term navigation bridging
- AHRS and flight instrumentation
- ROV and UAV orientation
- Robotics and automated vehicle systems
Advantages of choosing this product
