The HONEYWELL BENDIX KING® TSO'd KN 63 DME is a complete 100 watt, 200-channel remote DME system utilizing Large Scale Integrated (LSI) circuit technology. Offering significant advantages in DME reliability and performance, the KN 63 is all solid-state (no transmitter tubes) and can be installed with either single or dual panel indicators. The BENDIX KING® KDI-572 or KDI-574 DME Displays can be used as master display controls and  information displays from this remote DME transceiver.

Distances up to 389 nm (at line-of-sight altitude), ground speeds up to 999 knots and time-to-station up to 99 minutes are computed digitally and displayed simultaneously on the KDI 574 panel display. Distance lock-on is virtually instantaneous (usually within one second) with accurate groundspeed and time-to-station readouts following in less than a minute.

Installation Kit for use with HONEYWELL BENDIX KING® KN 63 DME Transceivers is also available at additional cost. 

The KN 63 DME are also offered in USED OVERHAULED Condition at competitive  prices with proper certification. Contact us for availability and a quotation.

HONEYWELL BENDIX KING®...

HONEYWELL BENDIX KING® Silver Crown Plus line of Panel Mounted 100 watt KN 62A and 50 watt KN 64  DMEs are self-contained, 200-channel systems, redesigned faceplates for improved readings' illumination,  larger and sturdier knobs providing a more precise feel and Bendix/King trusted quality and reliability.  Both the KN 62A and KN 64 DMEs can be channeled remotely through almost any NAV receiver, or tuned directly with their own frequency selection knobs. Their dual channeling capability offers two DME frequencies at all times, one remote and one internally stored. Their display shows either simultaneous DME distance, groundspeed and time-to-station, or DME distance and internally selected frequency. They operate on any DC voltage from 11 to 33 without adapters or power converters while due to their modest power requirements no external cooling is needed.  Racks & connectors (for new installations) are sold separately. 

The KN-62A DME is the TSO'd version of the popular and powerful KN-62 DME. Also available with  a harmonic transmission filter (-01 version) required in Europe. The King KN-64 DME represents a compromise between the KN-62 and KN-62A DMEs but with a lower transmission power (nominally rated at 50 watts) than either the KN-62/KN-62A DMEs (100 watts). 

HONEYWELL BENDIX KING® KN 62A and KN 64 DMEs are available in NEW condition or can be furnished as USED in Serviceable or Overhauled conditions indicated respectively by the letters "SV" and "OH" in the product reference numbers (SKU) and  accompanied by the relevant certification (e.g. yellow tag, 8130-3 form). They are also offered as exchanges / trade-ins for returned customer owned units indicated by the letter "EX" in the SKU. Different versions exist including the standard  version (-00 ) and the version with Silver Crown Plus faceplate. Please refer to the Product Description section for technical specifications and information on USED DMEs.
