Automatic Radar Plotting Aids Spare Parts Suppliers

Automatic Radar Plotting Aids, commonly known as ARPA, are the collision-avoidance brains behind every modern bridge radar. They track targets automatically, calculate the closest point of approach (CPA) and time to CPA (TCPA), and warn the officer on watch before a dangerous situation develops. 

SOLAS makes ARPA mandatory on most vessels above 10,000 gross tonnes, and it's standard kit on almost every commercial ship afloat. When a unit starts acting up in heavy traffic or thick fog, waiting for parts isn't an option, which is why staying in touch with dependable automatic radar plotting aids spare parts suppliers matters so much. At RecordsMarine, we connect shipowners and superintendents with vetted ARPA spare parts providers worldwide.

How ARPA Keeps Your Bridge Safer

An ARPA system takes raw radar returns and turns them into trackable target data. It flags vessels on a collision course, plots their vectors on the display, and sounds an alarm when something crosses your guard zone. Crews rely on it during night watches, in restricted visibility, and whenever traffic density climbs. A faulty component, even something small like a worn trackball or failing power supply, can blind the bridge team at the worst moment.

Critical ARPA Spare Parts to Keep Onboard

Our team at RecordsMarine works with ARPA parts providers who stock both OEM components and approved alternatives. The items vessels order most often include:

  • Magnetrons and transceivers
  • Display units and LCD monitors
  • Motherboards and processor cards
  • Power supply units and DC converters
  • Trackballs, keyboards, and control panels
  • Scanner motors and gearboxes
  • Waveguides, rotary joints, and slip rings
  • Antenna arrays and radomes
  • Cables, connectors, and PCB assemblies
  • Cooling fans and filter kits

Keeping a few of these onboard, especially magnetrons, PSUs, and trackballs, saves days of downtime when a failure hits mid-voyage.

Top ARPA Brands on Commercial Vessels

Most bridges run ARPA hardware from a short list of established manufacturers: Furuno, JRC, Kelvin Hughes, Raytheon Anschütz, Sperry Marine, Wärtsilä Voyage (formerly Transas), or Koden. Parts availability varies by model age, so working with ARPA spare parts suppliers who carry stock across several brands is always safer than single-source sourcing.

How to Choose the Right Supplier

Not every seller moves genuine parts, and counterfeit components in a safety-critical system are a real risk. When reviewing spare parts suppliers for automatic radar plotting aids, our experts look for:

  • OEM authorisation or verified aftermarket sourcing
  • Type-approval certificates matching IMO and IEC 62388 standards
  • Warranty coverage of at least 12 months
  • Worldwide port delivery with proper customs handling
  • Technical support from engineers familiar with marine bridge systems
  • A clear return policy on sealed electronic modules

Industry Standards and Regulations

ARPA equipment must meet IMO Resolution A.823(19) performance standards and IEC 62388 testing requirements. Any replacement part that affects system performance should carry matching type approval. Class surveyors check for this during annual radio surveys, and a mismatch can delay certification.

Frequently Asked Questions

How quickly can an ARPA spare parts supplier deliver to a vessel underway?

It depends on the port and the part. Common consumables like trackballs or fans usually reach major hubs within a day or two, while larger items such as scanner motors or full transceiver units can take a week.

Do suppliers handle installation, or only the parts themselves?

Most sell parts only, but many have partner service engineers they can arrange on request. 

Can a supplier help identify the right part if I only have the unit's serial number?

Yes, this is standard practice. Experienced providers cross-reference serial numbers against manufacturer databases and can confirm the correct replacement.

What happens if a delivered part turns out to be faulty?

Reputable suppliers replace defective items under warranty and cover return shipping for sealed modules.
