The FURUNO FR-1505/1510/1525 MARK-3 X-band
radars will reinforce Furuno's long established
tradition of high performance and reliability. They
meet the exacting international and national
performance standards for use on ships requiring a
radar with the display diameter of 180 mm.
The Video Plotter RP-17 is available when Radar
Mapping function is also required.

The 1505/1510/1525 MARK-3 employ advanced
video processing techniques for improved noise
rejection and automatic clutter suppression.
They also feature clearly distinguished target trails
from real targets by different color tones and accurate
plotting, manually or automatically.

Five presentation modes are available: Head-up,
Course-up, North-up, Head-up true bearing and True
Motion with appropriate heading and speed data in
IEC 61162 format.

A wide choice of antenna types is offered to meet the
varying needs of individual installations. A high­speed scanner (42 rpm) is optionally available
instead of standard 24 rpm.

Standard features include dual VRMs/EBLs where
No.1 EBL may be off-centered and has a range
marker on it, true/relative target trails, echo stretch,
two target alarm zones, trackball for direct
range/bearing readout, EPA, quick restart of
transmission in case of accidental power-off, etc.

Two target alarm zones can be set in any sector at a
desired range. Visual and audible warnings are
produced to warn of a target entering the target alarm
zone or preset CPA/TCPA zone.

The standard EPA (Electronic Plotting Aid) permits
you to plot up to 10 targets. For SOLAS Convention
ships, the Auto Plotter ARP-17 (ATA) and Video
Plotter RP-17 are optionally available.
