Features of the vario-altimeter unit:-
A high sensitivity of 2cm/s allows the use of the lowest thermals.
- The smallest altitude variation of the model is indicated.
- The TEK connection allows compensation of "stick thermals", so that speed changes are almost without effect with the vario output, sound and language.
- The second additional pressure sensor allows to give very precise altitude characteristics despite the TEK compensation of the variometer, which also induces an increase in sensitivity.
- This variometer is naturally altitude-compensated (a pressure change of 1mbar at sea level naturally corresponds to another altitude value at 3000 m altitude)
- Pressure to altitude conversion according to the ICAO atmospheric standard with meter accuracy.
- The vario TEK altimeter is particularly insensitive to radiation from 2.4 GHz telemetry transmitters.
- Software update capability via USB connector, i.e. updates and developments can be done by the user himself.
- Very low thermal and long term drift of the pressure sensor by mounting the pressure element on a ceramic support.Technical data:-
