Warning, Caution
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
The operator and installer must read the applicable safety instructions before attempting to
install or operate the equipment.
WARNING
Radio Frequency Radiation Hazard
The radar antenna emits electromagnetic radio frequency (RF) energy which can be harmful,
particularly to your eyes. Never look directly into the antenna aperture from a close distance
while the radar ius in operation or expose yourself to the transmitting antenna at a close
distance. Distances at which RF radiation level of 100, 50 and 10 W/m are given in the table
below.
Note: If the antenna unit is installed at a close distance in front of the wheel house, your
administration may require halt of transmission within a certain sector of antenna revolution.
This is possible. Ask your FURUNO representive or dealer to provide this feature.

1. MOUNTING
NOTICE
Do not apply paint, anti-corrosive
sealant or contact spray to coating or
plastic parts of the equipment.
Those items contain organic solvents that
can damage coating and plastic parts,
especially plastic connectors.
1.1 Antenna Unit
Mounting considerations
• The antenna unit is generally installed either on top of the wheelhouse or on the radar
mast, on a suitable platform. Locate the antenna unit in an elevated position to permit
maximum target visibility.
• A line of sight from the antenna unit to the bow of the ship should hit the surface of the
sea in not more than 500 m or twice the ship’s length, depending which value is smaller,
for all load and trim conditions.
less than 500 m or twice the ship’s length
• Mount the antenna unit so that any blind sectors caused by objects (mast, etc.) are kept
to a minimum. No blind sector should exist in arc of the horizon from right ahead to 22.5°
aft of the beam to either side (see Figure 1 below). Also, individual blind sectors of more
than 5°, or the total arc of both blind sectors of more than 20°, should not occur in the
remaining arc (Figure 2). Note that any two blind sectors separated by 3° or less are
regarded as one sector.

1. MOUNTING

• Install the antenna unit away from interfering high-power energy sources and other
transmitting radio antenna.
• Keep the lower edge of the antenna unit above the safety rail by 500 mm or more.
• Two antenna units should be mounted as below:
more than 20
more
than 1 m
• No funnel, mast or derrick should be within the vertical beamwidth of the antenna unit in
the bow direction, especially zero degrees ±5°, to prevent blind sectors and false echoes
on the radar picture.
• It is rarely possible to place the antenna unit where a completely clear view in all
directions is available. Thus, you should determine the angular width and relative bearing
of any shadow sectors for their influence on the radar at the first opportunity after fitting.
• Locate a direction finder antenna clear of the antenna unit to prevent interference to the
direction finder. A separation of more than two meters is recommended.
• A magnetic compass will be affected if the antenna unit is placed too close to the
magnetic compass. Observe the compass safe distances on page ii to prevent deviation
of the magnetic compass.
• Do not paint the radiator aperture, to ensure proper emission of the radar waves.
• The antenna base is made of cast aluminum. To prevent electrolytic corrosion of the
antenna base, use the seal washers and corrosion-proof rubber mat and ground the unit
with the ground wire (supplied).
• Deposits and fumes from a funnel or other exhaust vent can adversely affect the aerial
performance and hot gases may distort the radiator portion. The antenna unit must not be
mounted where the temperature is more than 55°C.
• Leave sufficient space around the unit for maintenance and servicing. See the antenna
unit outline drawing for recommended maintenance space.

Assembling the antenna unit
The antenna unit consists of the antenna radiator and the antenna unit chassis, and they
are packed separately. Fasten the antenna radiator to the antenna unit chassis as follows:
1. Attach two guide pins to the underside of the antenna radiator.
2. Remove the waveguide cap from the radiator bracket. The cap may be discarded.
3. Coat the waveguide flange with anticorrosive sealant as shown below.

4. Coat fixing holes for the antenna radiator with anticorrosive sealant.
5. Grease the O-ring and set it to the O-ring groove of the radiator flange.
6. Set the antenna radiator to the radiator bracket.
7. Coat hex bolts M8 x 40 with anticorrosive sealant and use them to loosely fasten the
antenna radiator to the antenna unit chassis.
8. Remove two guide pins (inserted at step 1), and then tighten fixing bolts.
CAUTION
Be sure to remove the guide pins.
Do not fall the guide pins when removing
them from the antenna radiator.

Fastening the antenna unit to the mounting platform
The antenna unit may be assembled before hoisting it to the mounting platform. However,
do not lift the antenna unit by the radiator. Always hold the unit by its housing. When using a
crane or hoist, lift the unit by the hoist rings which should be fastened to the bolt fixing
covers of the antenna housing.

1.2 Monitor Unit
The monitor unit can be flush mounted in a console panel, or mounted on a desktop using
the optional accessories. For MU-190/231, see the applicable Operator’s Manual(s).
When selecting a mounting location, keep in mind the following points:
• Select a location where the display unit can be viewed conveniently and where the
screen can be viewed while facing towards the bow.
• Locate the unit out of direct sunlight and away from heat sources because of heat that
can build up inside the cabinet.
• The optimal viewing distances for the radar display units are: MU-201CE: 1080 mm,
MU-231CE: 1200 mm. Select a suitable mounting location considering the applicable

Mounting considerations
When selecting a mounting location, keep in mind the following points:
• Select a location where the control unit can be operated conveniently.
• Locate the unit away from heat sources because of heat that can build up inside the
cabinet.
• Locate the equipment away from places subject to water splash and rain.
• Determine the mounting location considering the length of the signal cable between the
control unit and the processor unit. (The 10m signal cable is attached to the control unit).
• A magnetic compass will be affected if the control unit is placed too close to the magnetic
compass. Observe the compass safe distances on page ii to prevent deviation of a
magnetic compass.
Fixing with KB fixing plate
