The new SI-TEX MDS Radar Sensor Series connect to your SI-TEX ColorMax Wide, ColorMax 11, ColorMax 15, Explorer Plus, or Trawl Plot 12 Charting Systems to add affordable full-featured Radar capabilities.
- The MDS Radar Sensors are available in various models,choose from the:
- MDS-1 —2kW, 12.4" Radome, ranges from 1/8 to 24NM,
a 7° Horizontal Beam Width.
- MDS-8 —2kW, 20" Radome, ranges from 1/8 to 24NM,
a 4.7°Horizontal Beam Width.
- MDS-9 —4kW, 23.5" Radome, ranges from 1/8 to 36NM,
a 4° Horizontal Beam Width.
- MDS-10-4 —4kW, 4'Open Array, ranges from 1/8 to 48NM,
a 2.4°(4') and 1.7° (5') Horizontal Beam Width.
- MDS-10-5 —4kW, 5' Open Array, ranges from 1/8 to 48NM,
a 2.4°(4') and 1.7° (5') Horizontal Beam Width.
- Display your raw radar image or overlay the radar image on the new C-MAP MAX or NT+ charts for a complete overview of vessel traffic, weather and fixed target data.
- Adjustable VRM and EBL function provides precise range and bearing information to any target displayed.
- Target intensity is shown in color shades to assist the operator in differentiating between large and small vessels and weather severity.
- Other features include interference rejection caused by other radars operating nearby, FTC to reduce Rain Clutter and STC to pick out targets hidden by high seas and spray.
