wheelhouse, but out of the radar or satcom beam
path and the L-band antenna high on the mast. For
best performance, do not allow more than 7dB of
cable loss between the antenna and the receiver.
Applications without the L-band antenna and
operating at high latitudes should mount the GPS
antenna high on the mast, with the same
considerations for beam path avoidance and cable
loss limitations.
NavCom provides a tool on our website to aid in
determining when the SF-2050R is appropriate to use
over the SF-2050M:
GPS Sensor
Mount the SF-2050 GPS sensor to a flat surface.
Shock isolators suitable for 1.8kg (4lbs) may be
necessary for environments with high vibration, i.e.
Earth moving equipment or aircraft installation.
The SF-2050G can be installed in a backpack for
mobile surveying applications.
Do not place the sensor be in a confined space or
where it may be exposed to excessive heat, moisture,
or humidity.
There are no user serviceable parts
inside the SF-2050 GPS sensor.
Removing the screws that secure the
front end and rear end plates will void
the equipment warranty.
