Abstract: A device for determining the angular position of a compressor guide vane pivotable about the longitudinal axis thereof disposed in a compressor, associated with a synchronously rotating, flat measuring surface is provided. In order to allow particularly reliable, simple, and nearly error-free detection of the angular positions by means of a robust device, the angular position of the compressor guide vane rotatable about the longitudinal axis thereof is semi-automatically determined by means of the device. To this end, the device includes at least one mounting unit for temporarily fastening the device in alignment on the compressor, and a measuring unit including an angle measuring device having a rotary plate rotatable about the rotary axis, on which rotary plate a vertically protruding measuring arm extending parallel to the rotary axis is provided for making planar contact, via the free end thereof, with the measuring surface.
