4.1.2 Explosive Environments
Warning!! Do not operate base station equipment near
electrical blasting caps or in an explosive
atmosphere. Operating the equipment in these
environments is a definite safety hazard.
4.1.3 Proximity to RF Transmissions
Do not operate the transmitter when someone is standing within 90cm (3ft)
of the antenna. Do not operate the transmitter unless you have checked that
all RF connectors are secure.
4.1.4 High Temperatures
Take care when handling a base station which has been operating recently.
Under extreme operating conditions (+60°C [+140°F] ambient air
temperature) or high duty cycles the external surfaces of the base station can
reach temperatures of up to +80°C (+176°F).
4.2 Equipment Safety
4.2.1 ESD Precautions
Important This equipment contains devices which are susceptible to
damage from static charges. You must handle these devices
carefully and according to the procedures described in the
manufacturers’ data books.
We recommend you purchase an antistatic bench kit from a reputable
manufacturer and install and test it according to the manufacturer’s
instructions. Figure 4.1 shows a typical antistatic bench set-up.
You can obtain further information on antistatic precautions and the dangers
of electrostatic discharge (ESD) from standards such as ANSI/ESD
S20.20-1999 or BS EN 100015-4 1994.
