Warnings and Advice
High Radio Frequency Voltages
When transmitting, radio-frequency voltages up to 1500 V RMS are present on the
radiating arm and associated cables of the 2018 Barrett Mobile Magnetic Loop
Antenna. These voltages are sufficient to cause electrocution or severe radio
frequency burns. Personnel must not under any circumstances come into contact
with the radiating arm of the antenna or the associated cables when the unit is in
operation.
Power Supply Cables
7 of 31
High Frequency transceivers require adequate supply current. It is essential that the
supplied cables are utilised to reduce the likelihood of system malfunction.
Please
use the specified cables.
Radio Frequency Field Exposure
The 2018 Barrett Mobile Magnetic Loop Antenna produces high localized radio
frequency fields. As long as personnel are beneath the level of the roof rack,
exposure to fields will be well below safe operating levels.
Explosion Hazard
Highly flammable materials
(e.g. gasoline, petrol, butane, propane, etc)
should
not be stored on the roof rack when the equipment is in operation.
The induced
RF field during transmission may cause spark discharges between adjacent metal
objects which could cause the material to ignite.
