HONEYWELL BENDIX KING® KI 525A TSO'd Panel-Mounted Horizontal Situation Indicator (HSI) SKU: BK-HSI-KI525A

The HONEYWELL BENDIX KING® KI 525A HSI is a pictorial navigation indicator used in the KCS-55A compass system which also includes KG-102A Directional Gyro, KMT-112 Magnetic Azimuth Transmitter (flux valve), KA-51B Slaving Control & Compensator Unit and optionally KA 52/KA 57 Autopilot Adapters. It was a popular avionics upgrade for light aircraft until the advent of the Sandell electronic HSI and, more recently, glass-cockpit systems from Garmin, Aspen and others. This indicator combines the display functions of both the standard directional gyro and the course deviation indicator offering the pilot a single view of the horizontal navigation situation. It greatly simplifies course orientation, interception, and tracking resulting in less work from the pilot. Internally lighted, the KI 525A operates at 14 or 28 VDC.

The HONEYWELL BENDIX KING® KI 525A HSI is available in different models to serve application requirements:

- with bootstrap heading synchro to provide source of slaved heading information for any device, such as an autopilot

- with glideslope needle damping for use in high vibration environments such as helicopter

- capable of operating at either 30Hz or 400Hz

- capable of operating at 14 or 28VDC and 5 volt operation

Like other KCS 55A compass system components, the  KI 525A indicator can be furnished in NEW condition or 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.  In the case of an exchange/trade-in option of a customer unit, the  full selling price of the ordered unit is charged and the core credit is refunded or credited towards future orders when our co-operating supplier verifies that the unit is in a reasonable, repairable condition. It is recommended that this option is selected by our customers mainly for upgrades and only in cases when their units are functioning properly at the time removal from the aircraft. In cases when customer units are found by our supplier to be non-repairable, the core deposit shall not be refunded and shipping charges shall apply if customers wish the return of these units to them.
