95/TX Operation & Maintenance Manual, Revision 1.0
Page 12
In all cases, the 95/TX enclosure must be properly connected to earth
ground to maximize radio reception and as protection against electrical
discharge and lightning strikes.
MOUNTING THE 95/TX (Dual Enclosure)
If the 95/TX configuration includes either a horn or AC power supply,
the unit consists of two enclosures mounted side by side as shown at
right. There are four 0.27” diameter mounting holes spaced as shown.
The optional AC supply is always mounted in the left-hand side
enclosure and AC or DC power enters through the lower left side ¾”
NPT threaded opening using an appropriate fitting (not provided).
Both the horn and strobe extend rearward past the plane of the
mounting holes by 0.5” so if the unit is to be plate mounted, then
appropriate spacers must be installed between the enclosure
mounting holes and plate to allow for clearance between the
backplate and strobe and horn.
If mounting the unit on a plate, be sure
that the antenna extends above the plate into free space.
The dual-enclosure unit can also be mounted using the
p/n 20-0165 pole-mounting kit as shown at right. For best
protection against lightning or electrical discharge, make
sure the pole is buried at least 3’ into the ground or is
properly bonded to earth ground using large diameter
wire or braided cable. If the pole extends above the level
of the antenna as shown, the pole will provide some
additional protection against direct lightning strikes.
