Installation
CAUTION
Ensure that all air inlets, exhausts, and fan guards are free of dirt, dust, and
debris. Make certain that these areas are inspected on a regular basis.
Damage to the equipment can be the result.
Note: At the customer’s discretion, the RFTs can be installed anywhere on or near the
antenna. The supplied hardware allows the customer a wide range of installation
alternatives, including:
! Vertical pole (e.g., mast) (either square or round). This is the most typical
installation.
Note: This view is looking up at the RFT redundant assembly.
! Within the hub of a large antenna.
! Spar (i.e., rectangular bar) on the antenna structure.
Note: EFData recommends that the RFTs be mounted vertically, with the air inlets
facing the ground.
