  RADIOALTIMETER RWL-750-1500

Radioaltimeter RWL-750M-1500 measures and displays continuously until touchdown an actual flight altitude regardless of the kind and profile of the terrain. Altitudes up to 1500 m can be measured and operating range covers 30 ranges of pitch and roll angles and flight speeds up to 900 km/h. Designed for combat airplanes and helicopters the system is fit out with ARINC429 compliant digital output witch makes possible an integration with any navigation system. Sound and light warning subsystems indicate an overflow of preset decision altitude. Optionally system is manufactured with scale in feet (up to 5000 feet).

Radioaltimeter

  • presents measured altitude on one or two displays,
  • transmits signals indicating overflows of two manufacturer preset altitudes,
  • delivers the analog signal proportional to precisely measured altitude to the autopilot and data - recording system,
  • indicates by display built flags operating range limits overflows and signal fadeouts,
  • monitors the power supply system efficiency,
  • makes possible testing of all measurement channels by display built TEST push-button,
  • is equipped with planar shaped antennas and makes possible using antenna cables of the length optional from the range 515 m.
