Vaisala Antenna-mounted Receiver for C-band Weather Radars AMR

For upgrading weather radars to dual-polarization All the benefits of dual polarization without the downtime and cost. Antenna-mounted receivers allow you to upgrade, rather than completely replace existing single-polarization systems. Apart from the obvious data quality and availability benefits this brings, it will also greatly reduce your maintenance costs – and at a lower initial investment than a full radar replacement. Features  • Quantitative precipitation estimation  • Hydrometeor classification  • Elimination of non-meteorological targets  • Attenuation correction  • Better detectability of weak precipitation  • The latest software and algorithms  • Remote data monitoring and control  • Remote calibration and maintenance Key Benefits • Dual polarization in less than two weeks   • An antenna-mounted receiver makes it possible to send and receive both signal channels through one channel rather than separately through the pedestal. The upgrade is a tried and tested one-size-fits-all product that only requires minimal site-specific adjustments.  • Easy maintenance   • Calibration and much of the maintenance can be carried out online, which reduces associated travel and labor costs. And when a technician is required on site, the easily accessible and replaceable units mean that repairs are quick and easy.  • Better for your budget, better for the environment   • Extending the lifetime of existing mechanical hardware, rather than scrapping it prematurely, not only makes financial sense, it makes environmental sense too, as no new natural resources need to be used.
