In case of remote antenna installation using a coax cable the
antenna need to be installed on an isolate earth support in
order to grant a single earth connection through the
enclosure earth connection.
Model RX1, RX2, RX3 (ISOLATE GROUND)
In case of antenna direct mounting on RX coupler (without
coax cable) the antenna ground is isolated from earth.
In case of remote antenna installation using a coax cable the
antenna can be earthed through adequate connection.
MAXIMUM JOULES CALCULATION IN CASE
OF COAX CABLE INSTALLATION
In case of coax cable installation (radio/SX coupler and SX
coupler/Antenna) the adding cable need to be evaluating to
ensure that the maximum energy stored on cable not
exceeded the value allowable per IEC/EN 60079-11:
Max energy (Joules) allowed per

Group I
1500 μJ
Group IIA
