Product Details

The Furuno FAP6112 is a rotary rudder reference unit designed specifically for the NAVpilot series of marine autopilot systems. This essential feedback sensor provides the autopilot with precise rudder angle information, enabling smooth and accurate automatic steering control for vessels with inboard steering systems.

Key Features:

  • Compatible with Furuno NAVpilot autopilot systems including the 500, 511, 520, 700, 711, and 720 series
  • Rotary feedback design provides accurate rudder position sensing for optimal steering performance
  • Replaces the older FAP6111 model with updated technology
  • Includes 10-meter cable and mounting hardware for complete installation
  • Durable construction designed for marine environments

The rudder reference unit mounts directly to the rudder post and provides real-time rudder angle information to the autopilot processor. This feedback is essential for the autopilot system to make precise steering corrections and maintain accurate course control. Compatible with Furuno NAVpilot models including 300, 500, 511, 520, 700, 711, 720, and other NAVpilot series autopilots.

The FAP6112 replaces the older FAP6111 model and features a rotary feedback design that mechanically couples to the vessel's rudder post. The unit includes a 10-meter cable and all necessary mounting hardware for installation. This component is essential for closed-loop autopilot operation, providing continuous rudder angle information to the autopilot processor for precise course correction and steering control.

Note: Some newer NAVpilot 700-series systems support Furuno's "Fantum Feedback" software feature, which may eliminate the need for a physical rudder reference unit on certain outboard installations with hydraulic steering.
