Raymarine Cyclone 55 Watts 4ft Open Array Radar with 15m Cables

Raymarine Cyclone 55 Watts 4ft Open Array Radar with 15m Cables

Raymarine Cyclone 55 Watts 4ft Open Array Radar with 15m Cables are a high-performance, solid-state marine radar system that delivers superior target separation and long-range resolution, equivalent to a 6kW magnetron radar. It is engineered for extreme weather conditions and provides advanced situational awareness through several innovative technologies.

Raymarine Cyclone 55 Watts 4ft Open Array Radar with 15m Cables Key Features

• Solid-State CHIRP Pulse Compression: This technology provides excellent target separation and long-range resolution, with a maximum range scale of up to 72 nautical miles.
• RangeFusion™ Technology: This feature combines short and long radar pulses into a single, high-clarity image, offering exceptional near and distant target detection simultaneously for easy interpretation.
• Doppler Target Tracking: The system automatically tracks up to 50 targets and uses a color-coding system (red for dangerous/inbound targets, green for safe/outbound targets) to simplify the interpretation of potential collision threats.
• High-Speed Imaging: A fast rotational speed of up to 60 RPM provides 360 degrees of awareness and accurate, real-time target tracks, which is especially useful in high-traffic situations or at high boat speeds.
• Cyclone Bird Mode: This performance-tuned feature intelligently optimizes gain and tune settings to help locate sea birds, which can be an indicator of fish presence.
• Rugged Design: The radar features an aircraft-wing-inspired design with a best-in-class 100-knot wind rating and is designed to meet the commercial-grade IEC 62388 standard for shipborne radar.
• Clean Installation: The innovative pedestal design includes a built-in cable gland that conceals all cable connections for a cleaner, more professional installation.
