Raymarine 18" Quantum™ Wireless CHIRP Radar
Raymarine Quantum Radar is the next generation of marine radar featuring CHIRP pulse compression technology.
Setting a new standard for compact solid state radar, Quantum delivers superior radar imaging on both long and extremely short ranges. Integrated Wi-Fi and thin cabling simplifies installation plus Quantum’s energy efficient and lightweight design provides safe radiated emissions and substantially reduced power consumption. Quantum is compatible with Wi-Fi enabled Raymarine a/c/e/eS/gS Series multifunction displays.
Quantum Radar is the world’s first compact marine radar to use CHIRP pulse compression technology. Setting a new standard for solid state marine radar, Quantum delivers superior radar imaging on both long and extremely short ranges. Integrated Wi-Fi makes installation easy and Quantum’s energy efficient and lightweight design provides safe radiated emissions and reduced power consumption.
FLIR’s exclusive ATX™ advanced target separation technology displays targets like boats, landmarks, rocks, buoys, and weather cells with unsurpassed resolution and separation quality
SUPERIOR PERFORMANCE
- Quantum’s CHIRP Pulse Compression technology uses multiple compressed radar pulses with FLIR’s exclusive ATX™ advanced target separation technology
- Quantum with ATX™ displays targets like boats, landmarks, buoys, and weather cells with unsurpassed resolution and separation quality versus traditional magnetron radars.
- Excellent short-range detection and enhanced target detail with 18’ (6m) minimum range
- Immediate awareness – Quantum starts up and is ready to go in seconds
- Superior interference rejection eliminates noise from other radars
ENERGY EFFICIENT AND LIGHTWEIGHT DESIGN
- Weighs 50% less than traditional magnetron radars Safe emissions thanks to Quantum’s low power solid state transmitter
- Very low power consumption (17W transmit and 7W standby)
- Extended vessel battery life when under sail
EXCEPTIONAL DETAIL AND CLARITY
- Sharp, crisp targets and automatic sea clutter rejection produce radar images with stunning clarity
BETTER RANGE RESOLUTION
- Range resolution is a radar’s ability to separate targets within individual spokes of the radar pulse.
- Quantum uses compressed high intensity pulses (CHIRP) to deliver much greater range resolution than traditional magnetron radars
QUANTUM PERFORMANCE FEATURES
- CHIRP pulse compression technology delivers sharper targets on both long and short ranges
- FLIR’s exclusive ATXTM advanced radar target separation technology
- 18ft (5.5m) minimum range
- Fast start-up solid state transmitter • 256 colour palette for enhanced target identification
- 24nm maximum range
- Dual radar compatible
FLIR ATXTM ADVANCED TARGET SEPARATION TECHNOLOGY
- Quantum identifies small, weak targets, even when positioned close to strong returns like a kayaker close to a seawall.
CHIRP Pulse Compression
- Excellent short-range detection and enhanced target detail with 18’ (6m) minimum range
- CHIRP Pulse compression ensures more energy reaches each target, resulting in superior imaging on long ranges
Small Target Detection
Quantum’s CHIRP Pulse Compression technology identifies small, weak targets, even when positioned close to strong returns.
Simplified Installation
- Simple Wi-Fi connection between Quantum and any Raymarine LightHouse II powered MFD
- Quantum’s small diameter power cable is easy to route through tight spaces
- Easy to upgrade – Quantum uses the same bolt pattern as previous generation radars. Optional Quantum adapter cable eliminate the need to run new radar cables
