The Yokogawa CMZ 900 series is a highly regarded line of marine gyrocompasses, developed by Yokogawa Denshikiki Co., Ltd. (now YDK Technologies) and has a history dating back to 1960.

The CMZ 900 series is type-approved in accordance with the International Maritime Organization (IMO) standards, specifically resolution A.424(XI), as well as JIS-F9602, Class A standards, ensuring its reliability and accuracy for maritime navigation.
