ABSTRACT:
A Faraday transducer for a marine speed indicator is sealed in a cylindrical housing so that it can be mounted in a boat hull with its base flush with the hull. A horseshoe magnet sealed within the housing has its poles located against the base surface and with 4 electrodes in the base surface located one on each side of each magnetic pole. The electrodes are connected together in such a way as to cancel out stray magnetic fields and to increase the Faraday emf produced by the relative movement of water flowing across the base of the transducer.
