Experience Unmatched Situational Awareness on the Water
Navigating busy harbors, foggy inlets, or open seas demands radar that reacts as fast as conditions change. The HALO24 radar dome stands out by blending solid-state reliability with cutting-edge features tailored for smaller vessels like sailboats and fishing craft. Its compact design packs a punch, scanning up to 48 nautical miles while delivering near-instant updates close in—ideal for dodging traffic or spotting squalls before they hit.
Imagine threading through a fleet of weekend warriors at dusk: the dome’s rapid 60 RPM sweeps paint a live picture every second up to 2 nautical miles, cutting through rain clutter like a knife. Paired with smart Doppler analysis, it flags inbound threats in bold colors, turning raw data into actionable alerts without you lifting a finger.
Standout Technologies That Set It Apart
Dual-Range Scanning for All Horizons
Keep one eye on distant thunderheads and the other on nearby buoys. Dual Range mode lets you monitor two zones simultaneously without sacrificing clarity. Pulse compression and beam sharpening ensure even tiny targets stand out, whether they’re 100 meters away or pushing 48 nautical miles out.
Lightning-Fast Rotation for Collision Dodging
At short ranges, this radar spins at an industry-leading 60 RPM, refreshing your display in under a second. No more guessing at moving vessels in marinas or channels—get a fluid, real-time sweep that rivals your own eyesight on a clear day.
VelocityTrack Doppler: Hazards at a Glance
Doppler magic simplifies threat assessment. Every blip on screen gets auto-vetted for direction and speed via the Doppler effect. Approaching targets glow green or red based on risk, with no manual fiddling or target limits. Boost this with a heading sensor for pinpoint precision in tight spots.
Versatile Modes and Tracking Tools
- Switch effortlessly between harbor (clutter-busting for docks), offshore (balanced long-range), weather (storm piercing), and bird modes for spotting bait balls.
- MARPA tracks up to 20 targets in dual range, overlaying vectors for predicted paths—perfect with GPS integration.
- Instant-on from standby means you’re scanning seconds after power-up, no warmup woes.
Built Tough for Marine Life
Weighing just 6.75 kg with a sleek 24-inch footprint, this low-profile dome mounts easily on masts or arches without throwing off your boat’s balance. It shrugs off -25°C chills to +55°C heat, 100-knot winds, and IPX6 drenchings. Solid-state guts ditch fragile magnetrons for reliable, low-power operation (as little as 3.9W standby), sipping from 12/24V systems.
LED status lights keep you informed at a glance, and the included 20m cable reaches most installations cleanly via Ethernet. For extended runs, network extenders handle it seamlessly.
