Introducing Raymarine Quantum 2 Radar with Doppler collision avoidance
technology. The Quantum 2 next generation CHIRP pulse compression radar by
Raymarine provides superior target awareness at both long and extremely
short ranges.
Using advanced Doppler processing, the system instantly
highlights moving radar contacts and color codes them to indicate whether
they are inbound or outbound. Quantum with Doppler makes it easy to discern
potentially dangerous targets when navigating in high-traffic areas.
Easily Identify Dangerous Targets
Raymarine Quantum 2 Doppler target processing readily identifies and
color codes moving radar contacts for instant recognition and reduced risk
of collision.
Safer Navigation
Quantum 2’s exclusive Safety Sector feature provides the maximum level of
visibility to dangerous targets in the path of your vessel (both mobile and
stationary).
Superior Collision Avoidance
Doppler-enabled MARPA provides an effortless means of dangerous target
tracking by eliminating the need to setup guard zones. Raymarine MARPA
target tracking is the same technology trusted by the United States Coast
Guard.
Key Features
- Doppler moving target display allows for superior situational awareness
at-a-glance
- Fully automatic ARPA target tracking, along with manual MARPA mode
- Adjustable TrueTrails target history shows the motion history of moving
contacts
- CHIRP Pulse Compression detects contacts as close as 18-feet for
zero-visibility navigation
- 24-mile range for early detection of traffic, navigation aids, landfall
and weather
- Immediate awareness – Quantum starts up and is ready to go in seconds
- Superior interference rejection eliminates noise from other radars
- Simplified installation with Wi-Fi or thin wire network connectivity
- Easy upgrade – Quantum 2 fits the same bolt pattern as other Raymarine
scanners
- Lightweight and easy to install – Quantum weighs up to 50% less than
comparable magnetron radars
- Safe emissions – mount Quantum anywhere onboard
- Low power consumption for extended battery life under sail
HOW DOPPLER RADAR WORKS
Microwave energy waves are bounced off of a distant target, just like
conventional radar.
Moving targets send back echoes whose frequencies shift upward or downward
from what was originally transmitted.
For inbound targets, the frequency increases as the leading
edge of the returning echoes are received more frequently as the target’s range
decreases.
For outbound targets, the frequency drops as the returning
echoes spread out as its range increases.
Doppler radars are engineered to detect these small shifts in wave frequency,
and use them to classify moving radar targets.
DOPPLER TARGET PROCESSING
Doppler radar is tuned specifically to detect the radar echo frequency
shift returned by moving vs. stationary targets.
Quantum 2 then uniquely color codes moving targets to indicate whether they
are getting closer, or moving away.
- Inbound targets are colored red.
- Outbound targets are colored green.
Color coded targets make it simple to pick out moving traffic from other
stationary targets like land, navigation aids or stopped/anchored vessels.
QUANTUM 2 SAFTEY SECTOR
Doppler does an excellent job of bringing attention to moving targets, but
it does downplay stationary targets, that can be equally as dangerous.
Safety Sector provides equal attention to these imminent threats by
coloring them as inbound targets. Potential targets include:
- Buoys.
- Exposed Hazard (rocks, pilings, etc).
- Slow moving, low visibility vessels.
Quantum 2's Safety Sector spreads 15° from the bow to a distance of
approximately 200m.
NOTE: The safety sector is not visible on the display. Quantum 2
automatically processes and highlights targets within this region in red.
The Quantum 2 also features fully automatic target acquisition and tracking.
Configure custom safety or alarm zones and be alerted to new radar contacts
entering the zone. Quantum 2 can begin tracking those contacts automatically,
calculating their course, speed, closest point of approach and more. You’ll be
alerted to dangerous contacts with audible alerts and easy to understand
on-screen graphics.
Quantum 2 also features Raymarine’s new True Trails target history display.
The True Trails features enables you to see a historical “wake” behind every
moving contact. This additional information makes it even easier to interpret
the motion of other vessels, and make smart maneuvering decisions to pass
safely.
Like every Raymarine Quantum system, you’ll also benefit from a rugged and
lightweight design that is super-easy to install. Quantum 2 has very low power
consumption making it especially friendly to vessels running exclusively on
battery power. Quantum 2 with Doppler can be installed in a traditional wired
configuration, or use its built-in Wi-Fi technology to connect it to your
Raymarine MFD.
The Quantum 2 with Doppler truly sets the standard for on the water safety
and collision avoidance.
