Becker Avionics Radio Transceiver
The Becker Avionics AR6213, 6 W is a professional VHF/AM aviation transceiver with 8.33 kHz and 25 kHz channel spacing in the classic 160 mm / 6.25-inch avionics stack format. As part of the proven Becker Avionics 6200 Series, the AR6213 combines modern digital signal processing, an integrated intercom, Dual Watch and comprehensive audio functions with a high level of certification.The AR6213 series features Design Assurance Level C (DAL C), making it particularly suitable for demanding and certified avionics installations.Unlike the remote transceivers of the RT62xx series, the AR6213 is designed as a single-block transceiver with an integrated control panel. The radio and controls are housed in a single unit, so no separate Remote Control Unit is required for normal operation.8.33 kHz and 25 kHz Channel SpacingThe AR6213 supports both modern 8.33 kHz and conventional 25 kHz channel spacing.The frequency range extends from 118.000 to 136.990 MHz.Up to 760 channels are available with 25 kHz spacing and up to 2,280 channels with 8.33 kHz spacing.The radio therefore meets the requirements for European 8.33 kHz aviation communication.6 W Transmitter OutputThis model is the 6 W version of the AR6213.RF transmitter output is at least 6 watts into 50 ohms.Unlike the higher-power AR6213 version, which can provide at least 10 W at 28 V, this version remains a 6 W model in both 12/14 V and 24/28 V installations.It is therefore suitable for both typical 12/14 V and 24/28 V aircraft electrical systems.Modern Digital Signal ProcessingThe Becker Avionics 6200 Series uses modern Digital Signal Processing (DSP) technology.The high level of digital integration provides efficient signal processing and reliable communication while helping to keep the unit compact and lightweight.Dual Watch / SCAN ModeThe AR6213 features Becker's Dual Watch function, also referred to as SCAN Mode.This allows a second frequency to be monitored in addition to the active frequency.For example, the pilot can communicate on the active frequency while simultaneously monitoring the standby frequency for incoming transmissions.This is particularly useful when preparing for a frequency change or monitoring another relevant radio channel.Integrated 4-Place IntercomThe AR6213 features an integrated VOX-controlled 4-place intercom.The system supports two separate intercom circuits and provides separate Push-to-Talk functions for pilot and co-pilot.In many installations, this can eliminate the need for an additional standalone intercom system.The integrated intercom can be adapted to different cockpit, microphone and headset configurations.AUX Audio InputAn integrated AUX audio input allows additional audio signals to be connected to the system.This can be used, for example, to reproduce audio warnings or signals from other avionics equipment through the connected headsets.Powerful Loudspeaker OutputIn addition to the headphone outputs, the AR6213 provides an integrated output for an external cockpit loudspeaker.Output power is at least 4 W into 4 ohms.With a suitable installation, the radio can therefore drive an appropriate cockpit loudspeaker without requiring an additional external audio amplifier.Frequency ManagementThe Becker 6200 Series automatically stores recently used channels, allowing previously selected frequencies to be recalled quickly.The unit also provides an RF signal indication, giving the pilot an indication of received signal strength.Adjustable SquelchThe receiver squelch threshold can be adjusted.This allows the radio to be adapted to different reception conditions and aircraft installations.Safe-Lock FunctionThe Becker 6200 Series features a Safe-Lock function designed to help prevent accidental changes to selected settings.This can be particularly useful during turbulence or if the controls are touched unintentionally.Tandem Operation and Remote ExpansionAlthough the AR6213 already features an integrated control panel, the Becker 6200 Series also supports additional control options.Depending on the installation, a compatible RCU6211 Remote Control Unit can be added.This enables configurations with multiple control positions and can be particularly useful for tandem cockpits, training aircraft and specialized aircraft installations.Wide Supply Voltage RangeThe AR6213 operates with a supply voltage of 10.25 to 33 V DC.It can therefore be installed in both typical 12/14 V and 24/28 V aircraft electrical systems.For limited emergency operation, a voltage range of 9.0 to 10.25 V DC is specified.Robust DesignThe Becker Avionics 6200 Series was developed for professional aviation applications.The radio requires no forced-air cooling and no additional cooling fan, eliminating additional moving components and potential noise sources.Its robust design is intended to provide high reliability and long service life.Features:Professional VHF/AM aviation transceiverSingle-block transceiver with integrated control panel160
