Models
This series of radar and ARPA is available in the following models:
Model
Freq Band Output Transceiver configuration
FR-2115,FR-2115-B X-band 12 kW TR-up
FR-2125, FR-2125-B X-band 25 kW TR-up
FR-2125W, FR-2125W-B X-band 25 kW TR-down
FR-2155, FR-2155-B X-band 50 kW TR-up
FR-2135S, FR-2135S-B S-band 30 kW TR-up
FR-2135SW, FR-2135SW-B S-band 30 kW TR-down
FR-2165DS S-band 60 kW TR-up
Note: FR-2155, FR-2155-B, FR-2165DS are not IMO type-approved models.
All comes with the EPA (Electronic Plotting Aid) standard fitted. An optional ARP-26 board is
available to provide the full functionality of ARPA (Automatic Radar Plotting Aid). Also with
an optional Video Plotter RP-26 board.
Besides the choice of the above models, the FR-2105/2105-B Series is available in the Regular
type (R-type) and IMO type. The IMO type is designed as a primary radar under the 1974
SOLAS Convention on ships below 10,000 GT and also as a high speed craft radar when fitted
with ARPA function (at least ATA by IEC 60936-2). The R-type satisfies the IMO and IEC
standards but includes more flexibility of functionality to meet the fishing boats particularly
(thus, this is an expanded type in other word).
