Frequently Asked Questions
What is a pointer-style pendulum clinometer used for on a ship?
A pointer-style pendulum clinometer measures the angle of roll or pitch of a vessel relative to the horizontal. It provides a quick visual reference of the ship's inclination, which is critical for navigation, cargo monitoring, and overall safety at sea.
How does a pendulum clinometer work?
The instrument uses a weighted pendulum that remains vertical due to gravity. As the vessel inclines, the pointer attached to the pendulum moves across a graduated scale, indicating the angle of inclination in degrees.
Can this clinometer be mounted on any surface?
The clinometer is designed for bulkhead mounting on any flat, vertical surface. It includes pre-drilled mounting holes and can be installed using standard screws or bolts. Proper alignment with the ship's fore-and-aft line is recommended for accurate readings.
Is this clinometer suitable for both commercial and recreational vessels?
Yes, the robust construction and corrosion-resistant materials make it suitable for a wide range of vessels, from small boats to large commercial ships. Its simple analog design ensures reliability without dependence on electrical power.
