possible variants of each radar, for example R6SS-X can refer to R6SS, R6SS-U or R6SS-3D. 
 
1.1  SAFETY ISSUES 
This equipment generates Radio Frequency energy and is intended for outdoor installations only. Based 
on limits specified by the Federal Communication Commission (FCC) on Radio Frequency (RF) Emissions, 
findings from tests conducted conclude that the R1, R2, R3, R3D, R5, R5D, R4SS-X, R6SS-X, R8SS-X and 
R20SS do not represent any safety hazards and are therefore safe for human exposure, provided the 
following conditions are met: 
 
Caution!
 
The installation must provide a separation distance from all persons and must not be co-located or operated in 
conjunction with any other antennas or transmitters. This safety distance complies with the FCC Limits for 
Maximum Permissible Exposure (MPE) for general population / uncontrolled exposure.
