Training information
The SAILOR 6282 AIS Transponder is designed for occupational
use only and is also classified as such. It must only be used in
the course of employment by individuals aware of the hazards
as well as the way to minimize those hazards.
The unit is thus NOT intended for use in an uncontrolled
environment by general public. The SAILOR 6282 AIS
Transponder has been tested and complies with the FCC RF
exposure limits for Occupational Use Only. The unit also
complies with the following guidelines and standards regarding
RF energy and electromagnetic energy levels including the
recommended levels for human exposure:
• FCC OET Bulletin 65 Supplement C, evaluating compliance
with FCC guidelines for human exposure to radio frequency
electromagnetic fields.
• American National Standards Institute (C95.1) IEEE standard
for safety levels with respect to human exposure to radio
frequency electromagnetic fields, 3 kHz to 300 GHz.
• American National Standards Institute (C95.3) IEEE
recommended practice for the measurement of potentially
hazardous electromagnetic fields - RF and microwaves.
Below is a description of the RF exposure hazards and
instructions in safe operation of the unit within the FCC RF
exposure limits established for it.
Warning
Your SAILOR unit generates electromagnetic RF (radio
frequency) energy when it is transmitting. To ensure that you
and those around you are not exposed to excessive amounts of
that energy (beyond FCC allowable limits for occupational use)
and thus to avoid health hazards from excessive exposure to RF
energy, FCC OET bulletin 65 establishes a Maximum Permissible
Exposure (MPE) radius of 0.2 m for the maximum power of your
unit (12.5 W selected) with a half wave omni-directional
antenna having a maximum gain of 3 dB (5.2 dBi). This means all
