Both options run on 12\/24 V systems (10.5 to 31.2 VDC) and are rated IPX6 for real-world spray and washdowns on deck.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is the style of radar many owners choose when they want solid short-to-mid range awareness without moving up to a larger open array. Dual Range lets you watch close-in targets while keeping a longer-range view up for weather or traffic, and MARPA tracking helps keep tabs on selected contacts when you are working through busy channels or limited visibility.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eKey features\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e20-inch radome footprint (510 mm diameter, 223 mm high) that fits common hardtop, arch, and mast mounting locations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePulse compression radar technology in both variants, with Dual Range capability\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaximum range depends on variant: up to 24 NM (HALO20) or up to 36 NM (HALO20+)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e12\/24 V compatible supply (10.5 to 31.2 VDC) with a recommended 5 A fuse\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIPX6 water resistance for exposed mounting positions and routine washdowns\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInstant wake from low-power standby for quick use after leaving the dock or when conditions change\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMARPA target tracking supports up to 10 targets (up to 20 in Dual Range)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHALO20+ includes VelocityTrack Doppler and supports up to 60 RPM rotation at ranges up to 1.5 NM for faster close-range updates\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch6\u003eVariants\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis product is offered in two configurations that share the same 20-inch dome format and core radar features.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe main differences are maximum range and close-range behavior: HALO20 runs out to 24 NM, while HALO20+ extends to 36 NM and adds VelocityTrack Doppler with range-dependent rotation up to 60 RPM for near-instant updates at close ranges. Both support Dual Range, MARPA tracking, 12\/24 V power (10.5 to 31.2 VDC), and an IPX6-rated housing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e000-14536-001: Type HALO20+.

Avoid placing it directly behind tall rails, thick canvas, or other antennas that can shadow targets, and leave room to route the cable without tight bends or chafe points.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOn smaller boats, the dome commonly goes on a hardtop, radar arch, or a mast bracket. On sailboats, pay attention to rigging and spreaders that can block sectors, and keep the scanner far enough from crew areas that you are not running it continuously right at head height.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eElectrical and system integration\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003ePower the radar from a clean 12\/24 V source (10.5 to 31.2 VDC) and protect the feed with the recommended 5 A fuse. Maximum draw is 20 W for HALO20 and 29 W for HALO20+, with typical consumption around 18 W and 20 W respectively, so most boats can support it without heavy-gauge runs, but a dedicated breaker makes troubleshooting easier.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRadar display and control are handled through compatible Simrad multifunction displays. Confirm your MFD supports HALO dome radars and has an available Ethernet connection path before purchase, especially if you are integrating into an older networked setup.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eUse on board\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis dome radar is a good match for skippers who do early-morning departures, run in haze or rain, or routinely work around traffic where quick target separation matters. The HALO20+ variant leans toward situations where you want faster close-range refresh and Doppler target cues, while HALO20 covers the same form factor with a shorter maximum range.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eMaintenance and care\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eRinse salt off the radome and mounting hardware with fresh water, and avoid abrasive pads or harsh solvents on the dome surface. Periodically check fasteners, cable glands, and the cable run for chafe so vibration and UV exposure do not create an intermittent connection later in the season.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Simrad","offers":[{"title":"HALO20+","offer_id":52270720647349,"sku":"QBP267054-V1","price":2499.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"HALO20","offer_id":52270720680117,"sku":"QBP267054-V2","price":1999.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0977\/8171\/1029\/files\/1303665_qbp267054.jpg?v=1771550619","url":"https:\/\/www.qualityboatparts.com\/products\/qbp267054","provider":"Quality Boat Parts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
