8.3.2.1 Unit (pedestal + transceiver)
Prepare the platform for mounting of the pedestal, with its built in transceiver.
Hole diameters and distances is evident from Figure 5 (Dimensions Drawing).
The pedestal should be mounted with its lid hinges pointed forward and cable
glands pointed astern. However the antenna swinging plane must be horizontal
in all directions when ship is upright on even keel. Consider giving ample space
for service, especially astern of the antenna group. If such space can not be
achieved, contact manufacturer for installation alternatives.
NOTE
The protection waveguide covers on the antenna and pedestal
must not be removed until when mounting the antenna. Anyhow
the waveguide joints may not be uncovered when the antenna
is not mounted.
NOTE
The fixing materials to fasten the antenna pedestal to the ship’s
platform are not provided by the manufacturer. Assuming a plat-
form plate thickness of 20 mm, four M10 stainless steel bolts of
65 mm length, with relative nuts grooves and washers, must be
used. The tightening couple is 44 Nm.
