R A D A R P O S I T I O N I N G TA R G E T S Microwave Targets for Dynamic Positioning... ...because a clear view matters RadaScan and miniRadaScan sensors operate with a variety of intelligent microwave radar targets called responders. The sensor accurately measures the range and bearing to the reference responder(s) to allow the calculation of relative position and heading. Responders add a unique digital ID code ensuring robust detection. Multiple vessel sensors can use the same responder(s) giving true operational flexibility. Responders are available with different power options. Key Features Applications • RadaScan and miniRadaScan compatible • All weather operation • Unique coded ID • Auto target detection • Mains powered option • Various battery powered options Responders are suitable for applications which use fixed structures such as: • ATEX and UL certified • Intrinsically safe (IS) • Various mounting options • Platform and Offshore supply Responders are also suitable for applications with mobile structures such as: • Accommodation barges • Track and ship-follow • Crew boat station-keeping • Shuttle tanker loading • Multi-purpose supply vessel • Pipe and cable laying • Heavy lift activities • Rock dumping • Dive and ROV support • Replenishment at sea • Semi-sub operations R A D A R P O S I T I O N I N G TA R G E T S Responders Responders modulate the radar signal using one of four different frequencies. These are characterised as colours (Red, Yellow, Green and Blue), representing their position in the frequency spectrum. Using multiple coloured responders overcomes the problems of spatial separations required by other systems. Responder power options include an externally mains powered variant and a primary cell variant for fixed installation, or with self-contained rechargeable battery packs for temporary operations. All variants are UL and ATEX certified as intrinsically safe and are suitable for use in hazardous environments. • Weight - 11kg (boxed) • Dimensions - 480 x 380 x 210mm (boxed) (l x w x d) Responder Mounting Options A range of brackets are available which are compatible with mains powered, primary cell and rechargeable responders.
