Installation manual. General service may only be performed by a technician authorized by Thrane &
Thrane A/S.
Do not service or adjust alone
Do not attempt internal service or adjustments unless another person, capable of rendering first aid
resuscitation, is present.
Grounding, cables and connections
To minimize shock hazard, the equipment chassis and cabinet must be connected to an electrical
ground. The terminal must be grounded to the ship. For further grounding information refer to the
Installation manual.
Do not extend the cables beyond the lengths specified for the equipment. The cable between the
terminal and antenna can be extended if it complies with the specified data concerning cable losses
etc.
All cables for the SAILOR FleetBroadband system are shielded and should not be affected by magnetic
fields. However, try to avoid running cables parallel to AC wiring as it might cause malfunction of the
equipment.
Power supply
The voltage range is 10.5 - 32 V DC; 14 A - 5.5 A. It is recommended that the voltage is provided by the
24 V DC bus on the ship. Be aware of high start-up peak current: 20 A@24 V, 5 ms.
If a 24 V DC power bus is not available, an external 115/230 VAC to 24 V DC power supply can be used.
Do not operate in an explosive atmosphere
Do not operate the equipment in the presence of flammable gases or fumes. Operation of any
electrical equipment in such an environment constitutes a definite safety hazard.
Keep away from live circuits
Operating personnel must not remove equipment covers. Component replacement and internal
adjustment must be made by qualified maintenance personnel. Do not replace components with the
power cable connected. Under certain conditions, dangerous voltages may exist even with the power
cable removed. To avoid injuries, always disconnect power and discharge circuits before touching
them.
Failure to comply with the rules above will void the warranty!
