Product catalog summary
Introduction to Radar Systems
Radar systems are essential for navigation, providing information about surroundings and potential hazards. Raymarine offers a range of radar systems, including digital radomes and open arrays, suitable for various marine vessels.

Types of Radar Antennas
  • Radomes: Ideal for vessels with limited power and space, such as sailboats and smaller powerboats. They offer excellent performance in challenging conditions, with HD Color Radomes providing enhanced features and resolution.
  • Open Arrays: Available in HD Color and Super HD Color, these larger scanners offer improved range and target separation due to increased gain and narrow beam widths.

Radar Technology and Software
Raymarine provides three types of radar images: Digital, HD Color, and Super HD Color. Each offers varying levels of target detection and clarity, with Super HD Color providing the highest performance and detail.

Key Features and Modes
  • MARPA: Allows tracking of targets, providing information on speed, bearing, and closest point of approach.
  • Bird Mode: Automatically tracks seabirds, aiding fishermen in locating fish.
  • Weather Tracking: HD Color scanners perform well in all weather conditions, allowing for tracking through rain and thunderstorms.
  • Chart Overlay: Radar can be overlaid onto charts for clear target identification.

Technical Specifications
  • Power: Systems operate on 12/24V with varying power consumption based on radar type.
  • Frequency: Transmitter frequency is 9405 ± 20 MHz for most radars, with 12kW radars at 9420 ± 20 MHz.
  • Environmental: Operating temperature ranges from -10ºC to +55ºC, with waterproofing standards at IPX6.

Installation and Safety
Radars should be installed unobstructed and parallel to the waterline for optimal performance. Raymarine radars meet international RF emission limits, ensuring safe operation.

Ordering Information
Various models are available, including digital radomes and HD/Super HD Color open arrays, with specific ordering codes provided for each.

Warranty and Support
Raymarine offers a 2-year limited warranty, extendable to 3 years upon product registration. Support is available through certified dealers worldwide.
