ELECTRONICS UPDATE New RAY-152 SSB Radiotelephone From Raytheon Provides Outstanding Long-Range Communication The new RAY-152 SSB Radiotel- ephone from Raytheon Marine Company provides outstanding long-range communication over all 195 ITU marine channels, memory programming of up to 200 other operating frequencies, and scanning of up to 10 preprogrammed receiver channels, plus many convenient user features. This new 150-watt sing-sideband radiotelephone also offers marine telex interface capa- bilities for making hard-copy trans- missions. Designed for use with SITOR (Simplex Telex Over Radio) signal processing equipment, the RAY-152 can send and receive printed mes- sages when used with an ARQ (Au- tomatic Retransmission Request) modem to translate text to radio sig- nals and vice versa. To send hard- copy messages, the operator types copy into a computer terminal and Raytheon's new RAY-152 SSB Radiotele- phone has a built-in noise blanker and built- in digital clarifier. Dual microprocessors as- sure precise, continuous tuning from 0.1 to 29.999 MHz (receive) and from 1.6 to 29.999 MHz (transmit). calls a high seas marine operator who will forward the message to the receiving station. The transmission can also be sent directly to the receiving telex station. While this system has been used by commer- cial mariners for years, it is becom- ing more and more popular with yachtsmen and anyone offshore who wants to stay in touch via printed transmissions. The RAY-152 SSB can also be remotely controlled when used with the optional RS-232C interface. If, for example, you were equipped with a computer and printer, you could program the RAY-152 to re- ceive printed weather broadcast re-, ports, unattended. The RAY-152 SSB Radiotele- phone is 14.6 inches wide by 5.1 inches high by 13 inches deep, and weighs 22.8 pounds. It is supplied with microphone, power cable, mounting hardware, and owner's manual.

A recently introduced innovation from L'Orange is a pilot injection system which improves the efficien- cy of diesel engines and enhances environmental compatibility. L'Orange offers an injection sys- tem which has been perfected hy- draulically on a test bench under similar conditions to those found in an engine. The engine manufacturer thus saves expensive engine test runs and reduces the time required to develop his engine. At the same time as this development work, L'Orange conducts endurance test- ing for the complete injection sys- tem. The system is only approved for use after it has been subjected to at least 10 million load cycles with out a fault being detected. Engine manufacturers' require- ments for high injection pressures and short injection times have led to the development of completely new pump designs by L'Orange. The company introduced a new design principle featuring the monoele- ment. This means that high-pres- sure pumps from L'Orange, suitable foir continuous operation at 1700 bar peak pressure, only have one high-pressure sealing face. Several thousand high-pressure pumps with monoelements have been proven in service and satisfy the highest re- quirements for reliability and effi- ciency.
