Description

A radar capable of understanding extreme weather better than any other

There are a number of differing opinions globally on how to approach problems caused by extreme weather. These include short localized rainstorms, snowstorms, tornadoes, landslides and other life threatening phenomena that are increasing worldwide. Subsequently the urgent need for more localized weather forecasting is required in order to protect human life and assets against these unexpected natural disasters.

Numerous fields of application

FURUNO's new weather Radars are compact and easily installed on building roofs and mountain tops. This is something inconceivable even a few years ago. Both ease of installation and transportability allows flexibility for countless applications and utilizations. These Radars provide comprehensive disaster prevention solutions for all situations.

Compact, lightweight and Solid-state

Our Weather Radars utilize solid state technology reducing overall operating and maintenance costs thanks to low power consumption and fewer required replacement parts. Moreover our solid state technology provides high precision monitoring of precipitation with a wide range of signal processing and data format capabilities.

Simple and quick installation

No heavy machinery needed to transportation or install the Radar. It can easily be installed by a two person crew. Power requirement is a standard AC power outlet used for domestic appliances (100V/200V). The Radar can be installed practically anywhere without special structures or configurations.


Product advantages

FURUNO, which maintains the leading market share in marine Radar now presents its two X-band Weather Doppler Radars, the single polarimetric WR110 and the dual polarimetric WR2120.

The WR110 single polarimetric Radar is extremely efficient for normal rain observations.
