Product Description
The Furuno DRS25AX is a top - notch 25kW X - Band radar equipped with a 15 - meter cable. Model DRS25AX offers enhanced target detection both near and far, with a minimum detection range of just 20 meters. It features Fast Target Tracking™ and a Bird Mode. The new pedestal unit is 20% lighter than its predecessor, powered by a new low - noise motor. No PSU is needed, which cuts down on total costs. Installation is a breeze without opening the pedestal unit, thanks to the new smart - connector cable. This 24V system requires a converter for 12V power systems. It's compatible with NavNet TZtouch and NavNet TZtouch2. Pushing the limits of conventional radar tech, it offers up to 96 nautical miles of long - range detection and improved short - range performance. The fast target tracking function from the commercial FAR3000 radar boosts vessel safety. Specifications include a 24vDC input voltage, optional 3.5', 4', or 6' antennas, and a maximum range of 96nm. In the box, you'll find a scanner unit, fuses, corrosion - proof pads, and more.
Using the Furuno DRS25AX radar is straightforward. First, make sure to check your power system. If you have a 12V power system, you'll need to use a converter since the radar is a 24V system. Next, install the radar. You don't have to open the pedestal unit for installation, which is really convenient. Just use the included mounting template and follow the instructions in the installation manual. When it comes to the antenna, you can choose from the 3.5', 4', or 6' options according to your needs. Once installed, you can start using the radar to detect targets. Use the Fast Target Tracking™ function by simply pressing a button to get instant target course and speed vectors, which will help you stay aware of your surroundings. For maintenance, keep an eye on the cables, especially the smart - connector cable. Make sure the corrosion - proof pads are in good condition. If there are any signs of wear or damage, refer to the environmental data sheet and contact Furuno's support team. And don't forget to replace the fuse ATV10A60V if it blows.
