SAILOR 1000 XTR Ka (100 cm)
Microwave radiation hazards
During operation the Above Deck Unit (antenna) in this
system radiates Microwave Power.This radiation may be
hazardous to humans close to the Above Deck Unit. During
transmission, make sure that nobody gets closer than the
recommended minimum safety distance.
The minimum safety distance to the antenna reflector on the
focal line is 30 m for SAILOR 1000 XTR Ka 4.5W, and 55 m
for SAILOR 1000 XTR Ka 9W, based on a radiation level of
10 W/m

. No hazard exists >18° below the antenna’s
mounting plane. Refer to the drawing below.

In order to protect
personnel no-transmit
zones can be
programmed. For further
information see
