Magnetic Compass Calibrator Set

A Magnetic Compass Calibrator Set is a device used to calibrate and adjust magnetic compasses. It is specifically designed for navigational instruments and falls under the supply class of Navigational Instruments in the supply group of Instruments and Laboratory Equipment.

The Magnetic Compass Calibrator Set typically includes various components such as a magnetic field generator, a compass deviation card, and a set of calibration weights. The magnetic field generator produces a controlled magnetic field that can be used to simulate different magnetic conditions. The compass deviation card is used to record the deviations of the compass readings at different headings. The calibration weights are used to adjust the compass to compensate for any errors or deviations.

The Magnetic Compass Calibrator Set is an essential tool for ensuring the accuracy and reliability of magnetic compasses used in navigation. By calibrating the compass regularly, navigators can ensure that their compass readings are accurate and can confidently navigate their vessels or aircraft.
