Motorola VISAR Portable Radio

VISAR is the smallest portable radio ever offered by Motorola. But don't let its size fool you. It's tough, rugged, and gives you the same durability people have come to expect from Motorola. It withstands harsh conditions and still delivers dependable service.

It's Extremely Rugged

The VISAR portable exceeds the stringent durability standards stated in MIL STD 810 C, D, and E for vibration, shock, dust, salt fog, humidity, rain, solar radiation, high temperature (storage and operational), low temperature, temperature shock and low pressure. Regardless of the environmental or situational conditions you face, your VISAR portable is ready to perform. The radio keeps working. even in constant exposure to dust, shock, or smoke-filled environments, from construction sites to utility plants. In outdoor applications where a radio can be destroyed by exposure to blowing rain, salt fog, or temperature extremes, the VISAR portable provides performance you can rely on.

It's Tough By Design.

VISAR has been designed, manufactured and tested to achieve high levels of component and workmanship quality. Motorola subjected the VISAR radio to our unique Accelerated Life Test (ALT) which simulates years of field stress in a few weeks. We designed out known failures, designed in ruggedness, and verified the process with the ALT.

It's Safe.

Even in environments such as petroleum plants, VISAR can provide an added degree of operator safety. When ordered with the Intrinsically Safe option, VISAR is approved by the U.S. Factory Mutual agency for operation in hazardous atmospheric environments. VISAR may be small, but it's big on toughness. In environments where only the best performers survive, VISAR successfully handles the challenge.
