QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
No, the standard KS6005 PRO 3600 Digital Protractor does not include a certificate of calibration. If your application requires certified measurement accuracy for quality assurance or regulatory compliance, we recommend ordering model KS6005-WC, which includes a calibration certificate for traceability and verification.
No, a magnetic base is not included with this protractor. If magnetic mounting is required for your application, a compatible magnetic base is available and can be purchased separately to enhance functionality during hands-free measurements.
The KS6005 PRO 3600 provides a full 360° measurement range, allowing it to measure any angle within a full circle. This makes it ideal for applications requiring high-precision angle readings, such as aircraft maintenance, calibration tasks, or mechanical alignment jobs. It’s a versatile choice for aviation professionals needing detailed angular data in tight or complex spaces.
Yes, the KS6005 features a built-in RS-232 compatible serial port that allows it to transmit angle data to external devices. This output can be connected to a computer or printer for logging or documentation purposes. It uses standard ASCII formatting and transmits angle data every 533 milliseconds, which is helpful for real-time monitoring.
The digital protractor offers a repeatability of 0.05°, meaning it can reliably reproduce the same angle measurement with minimal variance. This consistency is critical in precision aircraft work, where small errors in angular measurement can lead to operational inefficiencies or safety issues.
The device is engineered with minimal cross-axis error, helping ensure that readings remain accurate even when slight misalignments occur during measurement. This adds confidence for technicians when using the tool in hard-to-reach or irregularly aligned areas.
The KS6005 features a 10-pin rectangular T&B Ansley 609-1027 connector on the rear panel. This connector is compatible with industry-standard serial interface cables, allowing seamless integration into existing diagnostic setups or bench test environments.
Yes, an external device can send a high signal on the REQ (Request) input line to prompt the KS6005 to transmit angle data. This makes it suitable for automated systems or test rigs where angle updates are needed on demand rather than continuously.
While the manufacturer does not specify NIST traceability in the base spec sheets, the precision and output capability make it suitable for environments requiring traceable measurement, especially when calibrated as part of a controlled tooling program. Many users pair it with calibration services to meet NIST compliance standards where required.
The KS6005 is commonly used for verifying flight control rigging angles, aligning engine mounts, setting pitch on propeller blades, and other critical alignment tasks. Its ability to deliver highly accurate digital measurements and interface with computers makes it a valuable asset in aircraft assembly, inspection, and routine maintenance.
