At WISE Group, we specialise in integrating the highest quality weather radar systems into comprehensive meteorological and oceanographic solutions. As a trusted reseller and system integrator of Furuno‘s advanced weather radars, we ensure our clients receive cutting-edge technology and unparalleled service and support.
Our systems are designed for the harshest environments, ensuring reliable performance in extreme conditions. With our extensive experience and specialised knowledge, we deliver solutions that withstand the most challenging demands of marine and offshore operations.
We don’t just provide weather radars; we integrate them into larger, sophisticated systems tailored to meet specific client needs. Our expertise in combining various meteorological instruments with Furuno’s radar technology results in seamless, efficient, and highly effective monitoring solutions.
Our partnership with Furuno leverages over 70 years of innovation in marine electronics. We have successfully deployed Furuno’s WR-2120 dual-polarisation weather radars, significantly enhancing our clients’ safety and operational efficiency.
The WR-2120 is Furuno’s state-of-the-art dual-polarisation weather radar, known for its high precision and robustness. Key features include:
In addition to the WR-2120, Furuno’s WR-110 offers robust single-polarisation radar technology suitable for various meteorological applications. Key features include:
One critical application of Furuno’s WR-2120 is in mitigating the risk of Helicopter Triggered Lightning (HTL). In the harsh environments where offshore operations are common, lightning strikes can pose significant dangers, particularly to helicopters. The WR-2120’s high sensitivity and advanced detection capabilities help predict and monitor weather conditions that may lead to HTL, thus enhancing safety measures for helicopter operations.
Can HTL (Helicopter Triggered Lightning) be Avoided?
Integrating WR-2120 weather radars into our systems provides offshore platforms and marine vessels with real-time, accurate weather data. This capability is essential for maintaining operational efficiency and ensuring safety at sea, where weather conditions can change rapidly and unpredictably.
The WR-2120 offers detailed and reliable weather data for coastal monitoring and environmental forecasting, which is crucial for early warning systems and environmental protection efforts. Its advanced technology supports precise weather prediction and timely decision-making.
At WISE Group, we are committed to delivering the best in meteorological and oceanographic solutions. Our dedication to quality and customer satisfaction ensures that you receive not only the best products but also the best support. We partner with top manufacturers like Furuno to bring you reliable and advanced systems that you can trust.
