PRODUCT CATEGORIES
Unilux magnetic compasses are professional ship navigation and binnacle systems developed by Unilux Geomar S.A., a marine instrument manufacturer based in Madrid, Spain. The brand's product range includes the gimbal-mounted Consemi and Morref compass models, typically featuring card diameters between 125 mm and 180 mm. These systems operate in integration with projection-type binnacles—such as the Mini-Hansita and similar models—equipped with periscopes or projection tubes that allow the helmsman to view the heading directly. To ensure precise heading measurements, the compasses are equipped with magnetic deviation compensation components, including B, C, and D correctors, as well as Flinders bars and soft-iron spheres (quadrantal spheres). Having previously collaborated with established manufacturers like Plath Geomar, Unilux holds ISO 9001:2015 and DNV type-approval certifications; today, its products are trusted across a wide range of vessels, from coastal safety ships to commercial and classic marine craft.
Unilux navigation lights are high-performance lighting systems specifically manufactured for vessels of 20 meters and above in the maritime sector, fully compliant with international maritime standards. Meeting critical regulations such as COLREG 1972 (IMO72), EN-ISO 14744, and EN 60945, these products hold DNV-GL and MED (Wheelmark) certifications. Designed with an IP68 waterproof rating to withstand harsh marine conditions and a durable, non-magnetic housing, these lights ensure the safe navigation of vessels. The product range includes essential navigation lights—such as masthead, sidelights (port/starboard), stern, anchor, and maneuvering lights—available in single or double fixture configurations. Furthermore, the systems are supported by advanced technological options, including integrated connection boxes, Night Vision Goggle (NVG) compatible lenses, and arctic heating equipment featuring ceramic insulators to prevent icing.
Unilux foghorns, manufactured by Unilux Geomar S.A., are acoustic warning devices designed for civilian and military vessels in compliance with maritime standards. Their primary purpose is to ensure maritime safety and facilitate audible signaling during conditions of significantly reduced visibility, such as fog. Based in Madrid, Spain, and manufacturing specialized maritime and navigational safety equipment since 1952, the company also produces magnetic compasses and navigation lights alongside these foghorns. Fully compliant with international safety standards, Unilux foghorns are reliable products approved and certified by Det Norske Veritas (DNV) and Spanish maritime authorities.
