BendixKing KNI 582 indicator 066-3060-00

066-3060-00 is the exact Part Number of this BendixKing KNI 582 radio magnetic indicator. The panel instrument combines a rotating compass card with two independently driven bearing pointers. In an approved installation it allows the crew to view aircraft heading and compare bearing information from selected navigation sources on one display, supporting orientation, station tracking and navigation cross-checks.

The KNI 582 is a display component rather than an independent magnetic sensor, directional gyro, ADF receiver or VOR receiver. It requires compatible heading and bearing sources, source-selection controls, aircraft power and approved wiring. A visually similar RMI must not be assumed interchangeable because supply voltage, pointer inputs, connector, lighting, modification status and installation approval can differ.

Compass card and dual bearing presentation

The rotating compass card presents heading when driven by the aircraft’s approved magnetic or stabilized heading system. The two differently colored and shaped pointers can display bearings from separate selected sources. Their exact assignments depend on the installed switching and wiring, so a particular pointer should not be labeled permanently as ADF, VOR or GPS without consulting the aircraft documentation.

By comparing the card and pointer directions, the crew can interpret relative bearing and magnetic bearing without relying on a separate heading instrument. The presentation can assist with station passage, intercepts and position cross-checking. Its accuracy depends on the remote heading source, receiver outputs, switching, wiring and indicator calibration. Warning flags and source annunciation must be considered before using the displayed information.

Heading and bearing signal chains

A representative heading chain is magnetic-reference equipment → directional gyro or heading-reference system → KNI 582 compass-card drive. A representative bearing chain is navigation antenna → compatible ADF, VOR or approved navigator → bearing output and source switching → one KNI 582 pointer. A second compatible source can drive the other pointer according to the installation.

These sensors, receivers and switches are related system components but are not included automatically and cannot replace the RMI. The exact companion Part Numbers are aircraft-specific. Signal type, scaling, rotation direction and connector pins must be established from the wiring diagram and KNI 582 installation data before bench connection or aircraft replacement.

Exact plate data and inspection

The authentic rear plate identifies a Bendix/King KNI 582 Radio Magnetic Indicator, Part Number 066-3060-00 and serial number 7470. It specifies 14/28 V operation with corresponding 0.8/0.4 A current values and a weight of 3.0 lb. The plate also shows TSO C41c Class A and C6c references, a DO-160A environmental-category marking and King Radio Corporation, Olathe, Kansas manufacturer information.

Receiving inspection should compare the complete plate, serial and modification marks, octagonal bezel, compass card, both bearing pointers, flags, source markings, controls, connector and mounting features. Bench testing should verify card alignment and rotation, each pointer channel, source switching, flag behavior, damping, lighting and current consumption using approved heading and bearing simulators.

Serviceable supply and ordering information

This 066-3060-00 KNI 582 is offered in Serviceable condition from partner stock with a six-month warranty. The quotation will identify the allocated serial number, release documentation, bench-test status and accessories included with that unit. A mating connector, heading sensor, directional gyro, navigation receivers, switches and mounting hardware are supplied only when expressly stated.

For an inquiry, specify Part Number 066-3060-00, model KNI 582, aircraft type, heading system, connected bearing sources, supply and lighting configuration, required certification and quantity. Related navigation products can be reviewed in the Garmin / BendixKing / Honeywell / Collins category. Final eligibility and interchangeability must be confirmed through approved aircraft and system documentation.

Keeping the exact -00 suffix and modification status in procurement records reduces the risk of receiving an electrically incompatible RMI. The allocated unit should also be matched to the required connector orientation, panel mounting arrangement and release-document standard before shipment is authorized.
