Description
Overview Furuno FAX408 Weatherfax
Furuno FAX408 Weatherfax is a dedicated marine weatherfax recorder built to receive and print weather charts and satellite imagery directly on board. It uses a thermal head recording system and 8-inch paper format to provide a physical weather record that can be reviewed at the bridge.
Automatic control of speed, IOC, phase, frequency, and timer functions reduces routine setup work, which is especially useful on long passages. The system is designed for offshore operators who still value a dependable printed weather source alongside other navigation electronics.
Key Features
- Printed weather charts: The thermal recording system produces hard-copy weatherfax output for bridge reference and watch handover.
- Wide reception coverage: Reception across LF, MF, and HF bands supports long-range weatherfax broadcasts.
- Nine gray levels: Gray-scale output helps distinguish weather patterns and chart detail more clearly than basic black-and-white printing.
- Automatic operating functions: Automatic speed, IOC, phase, and frequency handling simplify daily use.
- Programmable timer: Weekly timer capability helps automate scheduled weatherfax reception.
Applications
Useful for offshore passage planning, commercial bridge weather monitoring, and any vessel that wants a physical weather chart record for review during long-range navigation.
