GA8401 Quick-Release clamp when connected to another similarly
designed flange. These flanges can also be connected to any other
standard WR284 round flange (UG-584/U) using suitable fastener
hardware.
Flange Alignment Pins
Each waveguide flange connection that uses a quick-release clamp
requires two alignment pins for proper alignment of the adjacent
waveguide sections. All GAE waveguide components include one
alignment pin for each flange designed for use with quick-release
clamps. Alignment pins can be installed into either of two threaded
holes centered above and below the waveguide broadwalls. For
obvious reasons, the pins must not be installed such that they are
opposite each other on mating flanges.
Microwave Leakage
– Regulatory limits for microwave leakage
relate to standards for human safety and interference with other
electronic devices. Standards for human safety as adopted by
OSHA, the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) and
other regulatory agencies limit leakage to 5 mW/cm
2
measured at 5
cm from the leakage source under normal operating conditions, and
10 mW/cm
2
at 5 cm from the source under abnormal operating
conditions. The U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC)
has established regulations limiting the emission of energy at
frequencies outside the ISM bands. All GAE waveguide
components meets these requirements when properly connected to
another waveguide component.
