The Saab Marine Tankradar Electronic Transmitter (9150064-871 M) is a core signal-processing component within the Saab Tankradar radar-based tank gauging system. Designed to condition and transmit measurement signals from the tank radar sensor to the control and display infrastructure onboard, this transmitter plays a critical role in maintaining accurate, real-time cargo and ballast tank level data. As part of the Marine Control System category, it supports the operational integrity of tank management, cargo planning, and stability monitoring functions essential to safe vessel operations.
Key Features
✓ Functions as the electronic transmitter stage within the Saab Tankradar gauging system, processing sensor output for accurate level signal transmission to connected control equipment.
✓ Rated for a maximum ambient temperature of 80°C, with an external sensor output of UO=6.675V — specifications as stated on the original unit nameplate.
✓ Compatible with the Saab Tankradar system architecture; board reference PWB 9150064-035 provides a traceable hardware revision for system-matched replacement — subject to confirmation of overall system version and configuration.
✓ Suitable for installation in equipment enclosures or panel assemblies within the vessel’s control or machinery spaces; operating environment and mounting configuration should be verified against original system drawings.
✓ Direct replacement of the original transmitter module supports restoration of full radar gauging functionality with minimal system reconfiguration, subject to confirmation of compatibility with the installed Tankradar system version.
Marine Applications
✓ Cargo tank level gauging on tankers, chemical carriers, and gas carriers employing Saab Tankradar radar-based measurement systems.
✓ Ballast tank monitoring systems where radar-based level gauging is integrated into the vessel’s tank management or ballast control infrastructure.
✓ Integrated tank management consoles aboard LNG, LPG, and product tankers requiring reliable electronic transmitter components for continuous level data acquisition.
✓ Offshore support vessels and FSOs/FPSOs utilising Saab Tankradar installations for storage and process tank level supervision.
✓ Retrofit and repair projects on vessels with existing Saab Marine Tankradar installations requiring like-for-like electronic transmitter replacement to restore system performance.
Why Marine Engineers Choose
The Saab Marine Tankradar platform is a well-established solution for precision radar tank gauging, and maintaining system integrity with correctly specified components — such as the 9150064-871 M electronic transmitter — ensures continued accuracy of level measurement, supports cargo calculation workflows, and minimises the risk of unplanned downtime during critical cargo or ballast operations.
Ideal For
Tankers, chemical carriers, gas carriers, LNG & LPG vessels, FPSOs, offshore support vessels, and any commercial vessel class operating a Saab Tankradar radar-based tank gauging system requiring electronic transmitter repair or replacement.
Technical Support & Compliance
Remote troubleshooting guidance, onboard technical support coordination, bench testing, commissioning assistance, and system integration support are available subject to confirmation of the specific Tankradar system version and vessel configuration. For retrofit or upgrade scenarios, compatibility must be verified against the installed system hardware and software revision. To confirm suitability, buyers are encouraged to share nameplate photographs, the full part number and PWB reference, system model and software version, relevant wiring diagrams or installation drawings, and vessel name or IMO number where applicable. All compatibility assessments are subject to confirmation based on the documentation provided.
