Company web site www.thrane.com 98-131305-Aiii Safety summary1 The following general safety precautions must be observed during all phases of operation, service and repair of this equipment. Failure to comply with these precautions or with specific warnings elsewhere in this manual violates safety standards of design, manufacture and intended use of the equipment. Thrane & Thrane assumes no liability for the customer's failure to comply with these requirements. Observe marked areas Under extreme heat conditions do not touch areas of the terminal or antenna that are marked with this symbol, as it may result in injury. Microwave radiation hazards During transmission the antenna in this system radiates Microwave Power.This radiation may be hazardous to humans close to the antenna. When the system is powered, make sure that nobody gets closer than the recommended minimum safety distance. The minimum safety distance is 0.6 m to the side and above the antenna when the EXPLORER 325 is powered. The safety distance of 0.6 m does not apply directly below the antenna, as the radiation forms a hemisphere above the antenna. Service User access to the interior of the system units is prohibited. Only a technician authorized by Thrane & Thrane may perform service - failure to comply with this rule will void the warranty. Do not service or adjust alone Do not attempt internal service or adjustments unless another person, capable of rendering first aid resuscitation, is present. Power supply The voltage range is 10.5 - 32 V DC; 11.5 A - 4 A. Be aware of high start-up peak current: 20 A@24 V, 5ms. Do not operate in an explosive atmosphere Do not operate the equipment in the presence of flammable gases or fumes. Operation of any electrical equipment in such an environment constitutes a definite safety hazard. Keep away from live circuits Operating personnel must not remove equipment covers. Component replacement and internal adjustment must be made by qualified maintenance personnel. Do not replace components with the power cable connected. Under certain conditions, dangerous voltages may exist even with the power cable removed. To avoid injuries, always disconnect power and discharge circuits before touching them. Install and use the antenna with care Thrane & Thrane assumes no liability for any damage caused by the antenna falling off the vehicle or stressing the mounting base. It is the responsibility of the customer to ensure a safe and correct installation of the antenna. The instructions in the Installation manual are only guidelines. Failure to comply with the rules above will void the warranty! 98-131305-Aiv About the manual2 Intended readers This manual is a user manual for the EXPLORER 325 system.

Nemko AS Ref.: 148878 Test Setups: Test setup for conducted measurements: The antenna has two elements and is fed by two high-power outputs. In order to facilitate efficient measurement the two outputs were tested together by the means of cables, attenuators, and a wideband combiner. After this notch filter, high-pass filter or additional attenuators were used. With correct matching of these elements an amplitude difference of less than 0.5 dB was achieved up to 3.5 GHz, less than 1.0 dB up to 7.5 GHz and less than 3 dB up to 18 GHz. Phase difference was less than 10 deg up to 7.5 GHz (linearly increasing), and less than 30 deg up to 18 GHz, this was measured before and after tests were performed. Nemko AS Ref.: 148878 Test setup for radiated emissions: The output from high-power outputs of the antenna was connected to artificial loads during test.
