Installation | Halo20, 20+ and 24 Dome Radars Installation Manual
Possible performance loss
50% of beam power
50% of beam power
Above illustrates an installation with the Halo Radar mounted directly on to a large hard top.
This installation could suffer decreased performance as the radar energy is either reflected or
absorbed by the hard top.
¼ Note: Where the mounting surface is constructed of any form of metal you must elevate the
dome so that the beam has complete clearance, else performance will be severely impaired.
Good performance
The image above illustrates that raising the radar scanner off the hard top allows most of the
radar energy to clear the hard top.
