Furuno FR8122 Marine Radar System

Overview Furuno FR8122 Marine Radar System

Furuno FR8122 Marine Radar System is an X-band open array radar built for navigation awareness, target detection, and watchkeeping in demanding marine conditions. It combines 12 kW, 72 nautical miles, and a 12.1-inch Color SVGA TFT LCD for bridge use.

This model is intended for coastal and offshore operation where clutter control, long-range scanning, and clear target presentation matter. Source data also lists 24/36/48 RPM (Auto-Adjustable); 1.85° (4' Array) / 1.2° (6' Array); 10 ARPA (with ARP-11) / 100 AIS Targets.

Key Features

• Radar output matched to long-range work: 12 kW helps the system maintain target detection over 72 Nautical Miles.
• Dedicated radar display: 12.1-inch Color SVGA TFT LCD provides a large radar presentation for watchkeeping and target evaluation.
• Adaptive sweep rates: 24/36/48 RPM (Auto-Adjustable) helps the radar respond to different vessel speeds and operating conditions.
• Open array detail: 1.85° (4' Array) / 1.2° (6' Array) supports clearer target separation when traffic or land echoes are close together.
• Traffic awareness options: 10 ARPA (with ARP-11) / 100 AIS Targets supports broader awareness when the optional tracking functions are used.

Applications

• Commercial and offshore vessels that need radar awareness over 72 nautical miles.
• Bridge watchkeeping in rain, sea clutter, darkness, or restricted visibility where target presentation matters.
• Coastal and offshore navigation where early detection of land, weather, and surrounding traffic supports safer decision making.
• Higher-speed operations that benefit from selectable antenna rotation rates.
