 GNSS Performance
The SF-3050 utilizes
NavCom’s Sapphire GNSS engine, which incorporates several
patented innovations. Sapphire ’s industry leading receiver sensitivity provides more than
50% signal to noise ratio advantage over competing technologies. This results in
improved real time positioning, proven through independent tests, when facing various
multipath environments.
 Rugged Design
Units have been tested to conform to MIL-STD-810F for low pressure, solar radiation,
rain, humidity, salt-fog, sand, and dust. In addition, the unit is IP certified to the IP67 level
(compliant only when cables are connected).
The SF-3050 is also certified
1
to comply with the relevant type approval procedures for
marine equipment of the Marine Equipment Directive (MED) 96/98/EC.
The rugged design of the SF-3050 system components provides protection against the
harsh environments common to areas such as construction sites, offshore vessels, and
mines. In some extreme shock and vibration applications, additional isolation hardware
may be required.
