Section 2: SYSTEM OPERATION
The circuit breakers should be left on as long as possible while the
gyro is spinning to remove heat from the gyro. During normal
operation, the gyro should be stopped when pulling into port and
stabilization is no longer required. This maximizes long term life as
it allows the gyro to start the coast down cycle before cooling is
shutoff. Once the vessel is secured in the slip and the crew has
shut down the generator and engines, the AC and DC breakers that
control the gyro should be switched to the OFF position. The gyro
will continue to spool down to zero rpm. No cooling is required
during this time. Note gyro will take approximately 2 hours to
coast down to zero rpm from full speed. The Display will indicate 0
RPM when the flywheel has stopped.
