The 2D electronic compass sensor adopts industrial-grade design, uses digital output and has anti-electromagnetic interference function. The measurement range is 0° to 360°, achieving full circular coverage and reliable heading data.
Features
- 2D electronic compass sensor uses an aluminum alloy shell, which has the characteristics of high strength, impact resistance, anti-interference, and rainproof, and is reliable and durable.
- The electronic compass sensor uses an aviation connector, which is waterproof and moisture-proof, and has good stability and high sensitivity.
- Its signal shielding cable is strong and durable, and has undergone rigorous tension, bending, swing and other tests to ensure high reliability.
- This sensor uses an industrial-grade single-chip microcomputer with strong anti-interference ability and a high-precision magnetic sensor and driver chip, integrating hard magnetic and soft magnetic interference compensation technology. The electronic compass function can be integrated into various products.
- It is small in size, low in power consumption, has high shock resistance and high reliability, and can work normally in extreme environments.

Tips: Precautions for installing 2D electronic compass sensors
Although the SCM225 2D electronic compass sensor can compensate for magnetic interference, users should choose an environment with minimal magnetic interference to install and use it. Place the sensor as far away from iron, nickel, magnets, motors and other magnetic materials as possible. If there are these magnetic media around, please maintain a distance of at least 0.5m. To ensure the best measurement effect of the product, non-magnetic screwdrivers and non-iron screws must be used during installation. Be sure to strictly avoid strong magnetic materials such as magnets and motors within 10cm of the compass, which may cause irreversible decrease in the measurement accuracy of the compass.
