C15-00140

AUTONAUTIC C15-00140 is a marine magnetic compass. It is normally installed on or near the bridge in a position selected to minimize magnetic disturbance and provide the required steering or bearing reference. Its primary purpose is to provide an independent heading indication using the Earth's magnetic field. Unlike gyro or satellite-based heading systems, the magnetic compass requires no electrical power for its fundamental heading function. The supplied record already contains the available concise model or rating information, so those existing figures are not duplicated here and no additional meaning is inferred from the model code. For exact ratings, dimensions, settings, capacities, materials and variant-specific limits, refer to the manufacturer documentation for the exact figure.

Common failures & inspection points

Air bubbles, fluid leakage or degraded compass liquid cause poor card damping, sticking or difficult reading
Nearby magnetic changes or equipment modifications increase compass deviation and cause disagreement with expected headings
Pivot, bearing or card wear causes sluggish movement or failure to settle
Damaged illumination or viewing arrangements make the compass difficult to read at night
Loose mounting or binnacle damage causes vibration, misalignment or unreliable readings

Service & Maintenance

Inspect bowl, liquid, card movement, lighting, mounting, corrector arrangements and surrounding magnetic environment. Compare compass headings against approved checks and maintain the vessel deviation record. Investigate equipment changes near the compass. Refer to statutory and manufacturer documentation for exact deviation and inspection criteria.
