BS EN 60510-2-5:1996 is a British Standard that specifies the performance requirements and testing methods for marine gyro-compasses. Specifically, it covers the steady-state and dynamic performance of gyro-compasses intended for use on ships, including their ability to maintain heading accuracy under various operating conditions.
The standard is part of a series of standards developed by the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) to ensure the safe and efficient operation of marine navigation equipment. The full title of the standard is "Marine navigation and radiocommunication equipment and systems - Gyro-compasses - Part 2: Performance requirements - Methods of testing - Section 5: Gyro-compasses for high-speed craft".
This standard applies to gyro-compasses used on high-speed craft with a maximum speed of 40 knots or more. It provides guidance on how to test and evaluate the performance of gyro-compasses under different conditions, such as changes in speed, course, and sea conditions. The standard also sets minimum performance requirements for gyro-compasses, such as the accuracy of heading and the time required to settle to a new heading.
Overall, BS EN 60510-2-5:1996 helps to ensure that gyro-compasses used on high-speed craft meet minimum performance requirements and can maintain accurate heading information under a variety of operating conditions.
