[F1CHAPTER 3 U.K. Minimum operational requirements for rate-of-turn indicators
Article 3.01 Operational readiness of the rate-of-turn indicator U.K.
1. From a cold start, the rate-of-turn indicator shall be fully operational within 4 minutes and shall operate to within the required accuracy tolerances. U.K.
2. A warning signal shall indicate that the indicator is switched on. It shall be possible to observe and operate the rate-of-turn indicator simultaneously. U.K.
3. Cordless remote controls shall not be permitted. U.K.
Article 3.02 Indication of the rate of turn U.K.
1. The rate of turn shall be indicated on a linear graduated scale having the zero point situated in the middle. It shall be possible to read the direction and extent of the rate of turn with the necessary accuracy. Indicators other than needle indicators and bar-graphs shall not be permitted. U.K.
2. The indicator scale shall be at least 20 cm long and may be circular or rectilinear. U.K.
Rectilinear scales may be arranged horizontally only.
3. Solely digital indicators shall not be permitted. U.K.
Article 3.03 Measuring ranges U.K.
Rate-of-turn indicators may be provided with one or more measuring ranges. The following measuring ranges are recommended:
30
°/min
60
°/min
90
°/min
180
°/min
300
°/min.
Article 3.04 Accuracy of the indicated rate of turn U.K.
The indicated rate of turn shall not differ by more than 2 % from the measurable maximum value or by more than 10 % from the actual value; whichever is the greater (see Appendix).
Article 3.05 Sensitivity U.K.
The operating threshold shall be less than or equal to a change in angular speed equivalent to 1 % of the indicated value.
Article 3.06 Monitoring of operation U.K.
1. If the rate-of-turn indicator does not operate within the required accuracy range, this shall be indicated. U.K.
2. If a gyroscope is used, any critical fall in the rate of rotation of the gyroscope shall be signalled by an indicator. A critical fall in the rate of rotation of the gyroscope is one which lowers accuracy by 10 %. U.K.
Article 3.07 Insensitivity to normal movements of the vessel U.K.
1. Rolling of the vessel of up to 10° at a rate of turn of up to 4°/s shall not give rise to measurement errors in excess of the stipulated tolerances. U.K.
2. Impacts such as those that may occur during berthing shall not give rise to measurement errors in excess of the stipulated tolerances. U.K.
Article 3.08 Insensitivity to magnetic fields U.K.
The rate-of-turn indicator shall be insensitive to magnetic fields which typically occur on board the vessel.
Article 3.09 Slave indicators U.K.
Slave indicators shall comply with all requirements applicable to rate-of-turn indicators.]
