The FAR2117 radar system represents Furuno's advanced X-band marine radar technology designed for vessels 1000 GT and larger, though suitable for 300 GT vessels as well. This magnetron powers the system's comprehensive navigation and target tracking capabilities including:
Professional Installation Required: This magnetron component requires certified marine electronics technician installation to ensure proper system integration, safety compliance, and optimal performance calibration.
Maintenance Schedule: Marine radar magnetrons typically provide 3,000-4,000 hours of reliable operation for X-band systems. Regular monitoring of magnetron operating hours through the radar display helps plan proactive replacement before performance degradation occurs.
⚠️ Professional Installation Required: Marine radar magnetrons generate high-frequency electromagnetic energy that can be harmful to personnel. Installation must be performed by qualified marine electronics technicians following all manufacturer safety protocols and regulatory compliance requirements.
For over seven decades, Furuno has remained the global leader in marine electronics innovation, continuously developing solutions that combine unmatched performance with operational simplicity. Trusted by commercial mariners and recreational boaters worldwide, Furuno products are engineered to perform reliably in the harshest marine environments while meeting the most demanding navigation requirements.
Important: While the FAR2117 radar system is no longer in active production, replacement magnetrons remain available for existing installations. For new radar installations, consider Furuno's current FAR2218BB series which offers enhanced capabilities and modern solid-state technology.
Marine radar magnetrons typically require replacement every 3,000-4,000 operating hours for X-band systems. Most modern radar displays show accumulated magnetron operating time to help plan proactive maintenance.
No. Marine radar magnetron installation requires certified marine electronics technicians due to high-voltage systems, RF safety considerations, and precise calibration requirements. Professional installation ensures safety compliance and optimal performance.
Common indicators include reduced range performance, poor target definition, difficulty maintaining stable tuning, increased noise levels, or frequent auto-tune failures. Regular performance monitoring helps identify degradation before complete failure.
This specific magnetron (000-158-790-12) is designed exclusively for the FAR2117 radar system. Using incompatible magnetrons can damage radar components and create safety hazards. Always verify exact part number compatibility before ordering.
Furuno provides a 2-year limited warranty on this magnetron covering manufacturing defects and material failures under normal marine operating conditions. Warranty terms may vary by region and installation requirements.
Higher power output enables detection of smaller, more distant targets up to 96 nautical miles away. This enhanced capability is particularly valuable for commercial vessels, offshore operations, and severe weather conditions where maximum detection range is critical for navigation safety.
For over 70 years, Furuno has been continuously imagining and creating new solutions, making new marine electronic equipment with the goal of offering both performance and simplicity for everyone. Not only for men and women who make a living on the seas, but also for those who simply want to enjoy the boating lifestyle. For them, Furuno has become synonymous with quality, performance, and reliability.
