Detailed description

The FURUNO DRS6A X-CLASS radar sensor is designed for marine navigation, offering a nominal output power of 6 kW and a maximum range of 96 nautical miles. Operating on the X-band with a transmission frequency of 9410 ±30 MHz, it ensures accurate target detection. This sensor requires a 24 VDC power supply, with a current draw of 4.0 A in operation and 0.8 A in standby, for a power consumption of 96 W.

Target Detection and Tracking

The DRS6A X-CLASS integrates advanced features for improved situational awareness. It offers Head-up and North-up display modes, as well as Echo Trail to visualize echo trajectories. The Bird Mode enables bird detection, useful for fishing. Fast Target Tracking™ technology and AIS integration facilitate rapid target tracking. This sensor also supports SART and RACON detection and features ARPA TT (Target Tracking™) capability. Dual range is also available, allowing simultaneous display of two different range scales.

Integration and Robustness

For system integration, the DRS6A X-CLASS is equipped with a 100Base-TX Ethernet LAN port (RJ45), providing network connectivity. It is compatible with NavNet TZtouch multifunction displays (TZT9/14/TZTBB, TZTL12F/15F) as well as the NavNet TZtouch 3 series (TZT9F/12F/16F/19F) and NavNet TZtouch XL series (TZT10X/13X/16X/22X/24X/BBX). Its robust design provides an IP56 protection rating, making it resistant to water spray and dust. It can operate in a temperature range from -25°C to +55°C and be stored between -30°C and +70°C. The DRS6A X-CLASS is certified CE, UKCA, FCC, Industry Canada (IC) and complies with IEC 60945 Ed.4 for vibration resistance.

Expert opinion

« Technical analysis of the FURUNO DRS6A X-CLASS radar sensor »

The FURUNO DRS6A X-CLASS radar sensor is a proven solution for vessels requiring reliable medium-range radar detection capability. With 6 kW power and X-band operation, it offers a maximum range of 96 nautical miles.

For installation, the DRS6A X-CLASS requires a stable 24 VDC power supply. It is critical to note that it has no built-in power switch and must be connected to a distribution panel with a dedicated switch. For 12 VDC systems, a minimum 10 A DC-DC converter is mandatory. Power and LAN cables must not be cut, even when routed through a radar mast, to preserve system integrity and compliance with standards. It is recommended to avoid mounting the antenna unit on a hardtop to minimize vibration transmission.

This X-CLASS model integrates seamlessly with NavNet TZtouch multifunction systems and features Fast Target Tracking™, Bird Mode for bird detection, and ARPA TT compatibility. It is important to note that, unlike newer series such as Furuno’s NXT models (which are solid-state radars), the DRS6A X-CLASS, as a magnetron radar, does not offer Target Analyzer™ or automatic acquisition of close targets via Doppler effect. This distinction must be considered based on specific user requirements. Its Ethernet connectivity simplifies integration into an existing NavNet network, providing a robust solution for radar data visualization.

Frequently Asked Questions

Need help? Contact us

What is the output power of the Furuno DRS6A X-CLASS radar sensor?

The Furuno DRS6A X-CLASS radar sensor has a nominal output power of 6 kW.

What is the maximum detection range of this radar sensor?

This radar sensor offers a maximum range of 96 nautical miles (NM).

On which frequency band does the DRS6A X-CLASS radar sensor operate?

The DRS6A X-CLASS radar sensor operates on the X-band, with a transmission frequency of 9410 ± 30 MHz.

What navigation functions are integrated into this radar sensor?

This radar sensor includes several essential navigation functions:

Head-up modeNorth-up modeEcho TrailBird modeFast Target Tracking™AIS, SART, and RACON compatibilityDual range for simultaneous display of different rangesARPA TT (Target Tracking™) function for automatic target tracking

Are the "Auto Acquire By Doppler" and "Target Analyzer™" functions available on this model?

No, the "Auto Acquire By Doppler" and "Target Analyzer™" functions are not available (grayed out) on the DRS6A X-Class, DRS12A X-Class, and DRS25A X-Class models.

What power supply voltage is required for the DRS6A X-CLASS radar sensor?

The radar sensor requires a 24 V DC power supply. The acceptable voltage range is 21.6 to 31.2 V DC.

What is the power consumption of this radar sensor?

The DRS6A X-CLASS radar sensor consumes 4.0 A in operation and 0.8 A in standby, corresponding to a power consumption of 96 W.

How does the radar sensor connect to the boat's network?

Connectivity is provided via an Ethernet 100Base-TX (RJ45) LAN port.

Is the DRS6A X-CLASS radar sensor supplied with an antenna bar or cable?

No, this product is sold without an antenna bar or cable. These components must be purchased separately to complete the radar system installation.

Can I reuse the cable from my old Furuno DRS radar with this new DRS6A X-CLASS model?

No, if you are replacing an older DRS model (DRS4A/6A/12A/25A), the existing cable cannot be reused. A new compatible cable is required and must be purchased separately, as this sensor is sold without a cable.

What are the operating and storage temperature ranges for this radar sensor?

The DRS6A X-CLASS radar sensor is designed to operate in an ambient temperature range of -25°C to +55°C. For storage, the range is -30°C to +70°C.

What is the ingress protection (IP) rating of this radar sensor?

The DRS6A X-CLASS radar sensor meets IP56 ingress protection, ensuring resistance to harsh marine environments.

Does the radar antenna unit have a power switch?

No, the antenna unit does not have a power switch. It must be connected to a main distribution panel equipped with a switch for power control.

What should I do if my boat's battery voltage is 12 VDC?

If your boat's battery voltage is 12 VDC, you will need to provide a DC-DC converter with an output current of at least 10 A, as the sensor requires a 24 VDC power supply.

Can I paint the radar antenna unit if it has rust or peeling paint?

You may only paint the scanner unit if it has rust or peeling paint. It is essential not to paint the antenna itself, as this could reduce sensitivity and cause cracking.

Are there any precautions to take regarding the routing of the radar sensor's power cable?

Yes, to reduce electrical interference, it is recommended to avoid routing the power cable near other onboard electrical equipment. The cable should also not be run parallel to other power cables.

Is it advisable to install the antenna unit on the hardtop roof of a cabin?

It is not recommended to install the antenna unit on the hardtop roof of a cabin, as vibrations from the antenna unit could be transmitted through the roof and into the cabin.

What does the standard Furuno warranty cover for this radar sensor?

The standard Furuno warranty includes repair of the product at a national FURUNO distributor. An onboard warranty, if applicable, includes free shipping of required parts.

Which navigation systems is the FURUNO DRS6A X-CLASS radar sensor compatible with?
