Garmin GMR xHD3 4kW Radar Power Pedestal Only

Description

The Garmin GMR xHD3 4kW Radar Power Pedestal Only eliminates coastal navigation blind spots and sluggish target tracking on custom commercial retrofits, replacement structural arrays, and core power pedestal upgrades. Operating on a universal 10 to 32 Volts DC input rail standard, this high-performance open array power pedestal coordinates traditional magnetron radar processing with scan averaging to replace low-power dome units entirely. Offshore captains can monitor distant weather lines and shoreline details safely, letting the advanced multi-speed drivetrain track target vectors flawlessly across a 72 nautical mile range.

Constructed with an IPX6 extreme weather waterproof enclosure rating, the rugged drive base mechanism delivers an intense 80 knots wind load resistance to withstand continuous gales and open ocean storm conditions. The high-definition magnetron drive outputs 4 kW of peak power, driving dual dynamic automated scaling up to 48 RPM to capture instant structural echoes. Procuring this premium Taiwan-manufactured power pedestal optimizes advanced multi-display radar overlays, backed by a comprehensive 1-Year limited factory warranty plan.

Key Features of Garmin GMR xHD3 4kW Pedestal

• Open Array Power Pedestal Base Unit Architecture provides a standalone heavy-duty drive base designed to pair with 4-foot or 6-foot xHD3 antenna radiator bars.
• High-Definition Magnetron Radar with Scan Averaging suppresses volatile sea clutter and rain glare automatically to clarify weak or distant target returns.
• 4 kW Peak Power Output Magnetron Drive pushes powerful electrical frequencies deep into heavy marine layers to isolate hard-to-detect offshore hazards.
• 72 Nautical Miles Maximum Radar Range expands open-water navigation boundaries significantly to spot faraway weather fronts and commercial fishing zones.
• Dual Dynamic Automated 24 and 48 RPM Rotation shifts rotation frequencies dynamically based on antenna configuration to optimize screen refresh rates under load.
• MARPA Target Tracking up to 30 Targets Simultaneously tracks moving objects concurrently via multifunction displays to eliminate collision risks in busy shipping channels.
• Garmin Marine Network High-Speed Ethernet Integration Line shares high-definition radar maps and waypoint overlays across multiple display terminals instantly.
• IPX6 Extreme Weather Waterproof Enclosure Rating seals internal motor drive mechanisms completely from high-pressure saltwater washdowns and heavy rain.
• Wind Load Resistance up to 80 Knots manages extreme mechanical structural shear stresses to prevent permanent motor axis bending during high-speed transits.
• Low Energy Base Drive Power Consumption max 55 Watts minimizes auxiliary current draw while offering an energy-saving standby mode using only 12 Watts.
