Chesapeake White SS 4" Speedometer - 60MPH (Pitot)
Perimeter-lighted White dial with stylish Blue and White graphics, polished stainless steel bezel, contoured White pointer and domed glass lens.
Electronic speedometers operate by capturing pulses produced by a sensor. the pulses are then electronically converted to a speed reading very much like a tachometer converts ignition pulses to RPM.
Pitot tube type speedometers operate by pressure from the water being forced into the pitot tube. This pressure is then transmitted through flexible tubing to the bourdon tube movement inside the speedometer head where it is converted into a speed reading by the movement mechanism.
∗ Pitot tube sold separately.

The Faria Beede Instruments Chesapeake White SS 4" Speedometer, part number 33811, is a pitot-tube type mechanical speedometer designed for marine applications. It provides speed readings up to 60 MPH, with a dual scale for both imperial and metric measurements. This unit operates by converting water pressure from a pitot tube into a speed reading via an internal bourdon tube movement. It features a perimeter-lighted white dial with blue and white graphics, a polished stainless steel bezel, and a domed glass lens. The speedometer requires a 3.375" (85mm) hole for installation and is compatible with 12 VDC negative ground systems, with adaptability for 24 VDC systems. This instrument is suitable for integrators or businesses requiring a reliable, pressure-based speed measurement solution for watercraft, offering rugged construction for demanding environments.
This is a pitot-tube type mechanical speedometer. It operates by sensing water pressure forced into a pitot tube, which is then transmitted to a bourdon tube movement inside the speedometer head to convert it into a speed reading.
The speedometer head is sold as an individual unit. The pitot tube is sold separately, and a gauge cover is not included.
The speedometer requires 12 VDC negative ground for operation. It can also be adapted for use with 24 VDC systems.
The required hole size for installation is 4 inches, or specifically 3.375 inches (85mm).
