Furuno FAR-1513 12kW Transmitter, 96nm Black Box Radar System w/o Antenna & Signal Cable
Commercial ship bridges integrate IMO-compliant navigation through the Furuno FAR-1513 black box radar, processing 12kW magnetron output across 96 nautical miles while tracking 300 AIS targets via HDMI video over 12V/24V power at 6.1A.
- 12kW transmitter reaches 96 nautical miles
- Tracks 300 AIS and target vectors
- HDMI output connects high-resolution bridge displays
- IMO-compliant design satisfies commercial ship regulations
The Furuno FAR-1513 Black Box Radar system provides high-performance professional scanning when commercial coastal craft navigate long-range open waters. Poor maritime weather and busy harbor approaches regularly create dangerous vessel intercept trajectories, blinding old instrumentation setups. Installing this professional network gateway delivers outstanding target tracking metrics, allowing vessel watchstanders maintain total situational safety control during transits.
This professional black box radar system incorporates a high-power 12kW pulse transmitter core. Unlike low-cost recreational receivers that suffer from signal attenuation in heavy rain, this IMO compliant gateway delivers crisp echo extraction across a 96 nautical mile max range. The compact main processor features high-resolution HDMI video output, making multi-display bridge linking highly effective at tracking three hundred distinct AIS targets simultaneously over extended operations.
Why Choose This Radar over Generic Alternatives
Upgrading to this specialized commercial radar system is highly essential for professional maritime vessels requiring official compliance parameters. Unlike standard multi-function units with limited screen adaptability, this modular black box configuration interfaces easily with independent high-definition marine monitors via robust HDMI video output lines. It perfectly stabilizes high-accuracy Target Tracking vectors, ensuring commercial fleets completely avoid unexpected navigation blackouts safely.
Application & Limitations
This black box system delivers exceptional high-power tracking on large commercial fishing hulls, cargo craft, and passenger ferries. However, because it uses an un-enclosed separate processor, its main chassis is rated at IP20, meaning it must be installed strictly inside a dry, enclosed bridge cabin. Additionally, since this is a black box core only, signal cables and open array antennas are not bundled in this SKU.
