Krupp Atlas Elektronik has in- troduced the low-priced Atlas 5400, a 12-inch conventional display rela- tive motion radar to complement its current range of 12- and 16-inch ras- terscan systems.

Suitable for either stand-alone in- stallation or integration with other systems, the Atlas 5400 combines high-resolution display facilities with simplified LED-type data presentation.

Three display modes are avail- able, head-up, course-up and North- up, together with an off-center ca- pability of up to half of the display radius. Other advanced features of the Atlas 5400 include a VRM with digital readout and a ship-oriented

EBL, centered or movable with digi- tal display or absolute bearing.

The Atlas 5400 complies with

IMO requirements as well as other major specifications. It operates over a series of nine phased ranges from 0.3 to 72 nautical miles. The unit is available with an X- or S- band transceiver and antenna. The system can be interswitched with other Krupp Atlas Elektronik sys- tems such as the Atlas 5600, 7600 and 8600 rasterscan radars for cross connection or master/slave opera- tion. The unit also includes a per- formance monitor for the transceiv- er as well as comprehensive built-in self-check functions for added reli- ability.

The Atlas 5400 is available with either an 8-foot or 14-foot slotted array antenna for X- or S-band operation. Its corresponding trans- ceiver output is 25 kw and 30 kw.
