Technical notes
The MG5436 is the 25 kW X-band magnetron fitted to Furuno FAR-1528, FAR-2127 and FAR-3220 series marine radars, supplied under Furuno part number 000-140-762-13. The magnetron is the vacuum microwave tube that generates the radar's transmit pulse; its emission life is finite and measured in operating hours, so peak power falls gradually and the radar loses maximum range and small-target detection as the tube ages. It is therefore replaced on condition as a planned consumable rather than run to failure. Fitment is exact — the MG5436 is matched to its radar series by X-band frequency, 25 kW peak power and mechanical mount — so confirm the Furuno part number against the installed radar model before ordering, and have the set retuned by a qualified technician after fitting.
Compliance
Bridge radar is type-approved under SOLAS Chapter V; fit the approved magnetron for the radar model to preserve type-approval status. Supplied new with manufacturer warranty.

Frequently asked questions
- Which radars does the MG5436 fit?
- The MG5436 (Furuno 000-140-762-13) is a 25 kW X-band magnetron for the FAR-1528, FAR-2127 and FAR-3220 series. Confirm the part number against your radar model before ordering.
- Is the MG5436 the same as Furuno 000-140-762-13?
- Yes. 000-140-762-13 is the Furuno part number for the MG5436 25 kW X-band magnetron.
- Why does a radar magnetron need replacing?
- Its emission life is finite; peak output falls with operating hours, so the radar loses range and small-target sensitivity. It is replaced on condition rather than run to failure.
