Simrad HALO 3000 Open Array Radar

Simrad's HALO® 3000 array radar offers a premium experience on the water. An impressive power - equivalent to a 25 kW magnetron radar delivers an unrivaled combination of short- and long-range coverage enables you to see targets from six meters (20') out to 96 nm with exceptional clarity. Pulse Compression technology powers confident navigation through marinas, and superior storm and hazard detection across a greater distance. The HALO® array series not only increase situational awareness and collision avoidance but also offer higher-resolution target detection you won't find in lower-powered radars.

Features:

• HALO 3000 - 130W power for longer range (from 6 m to up to 96 nm) and higher-resolution target detection
• Advanced pulse compression technology with beam sharpening
• Simultaneous Dual Range operation
• Easy operation with Harbour, Offshore, Weather, and Bird modes
• Track up to 50 targets per defined area with ZoneTrack (two areas can be defined)
• VelocityTrack Doppler technology for collision avoidance
• Dangerous Target Alerts for radar and AIS targets
• Ready instantly from standby, and in 16-25 seconds from power-on
