3.4.1.3 Factory Halls and Open-Plan Offices
• Within halls or open-plan offices (Figure 12)
Good transmission qualities.
For a hall which is 100 m long, one centrally located base station, suspended
freely from the ceiling (mast, plastic chain), may be sufficient.
The base station should not be installed on a reinforced concrete pillar
because the pillar creates a partial shadow which means that a clear line of
sight no longer exists.
In this case, two base stations must be installed 50 m to 75 m apart.
In the case of outer walls or interior siding and/or hall ceilings made of metal
(or metal-clad), it may be necessary to increase the number of base stations
and distribute them in such a way as to virtually exclude radio interference
through reflections.
3.4.2 Outdoors
• Base station with outdoor housing (Figure 14)
Only base stations with weather-resistant housing are suitable for radio
coverage out of doors, e.g. on factory sites.
– Installation
A base station can be installed on a mast made of wood, plastic or
concrete (not metal), on the roof of a building (preferably made of brick or
light construction materials) or on the wall of a house.
– The mast used must be stable and wind-resistant.
NOTE: Choose the installation site to allow maximum visibility from the base
station to the service area.
