Chapter 2: Install the system
12 General installation requirements
2.2 General installation requirements
2.2.1 Painting the radome
Customers may wish to paint the radome in order to match the vessel’s
color. Cobham SATCOM’s recommendation is that the radome should NOT
be painted because it may impact RF performance and may lead to over-
heating, causing the antenna to go in safe mode (switch off). However,
painting the radome will not void the general warranty regarding material
and workmanship etc. It is only the performance that cannot be
guaranteed. Any paint used must be non-metallic based.
2.2.2 Power requirements
A SAILOR 6120/30/40/50 operates on 15 VDC (nominal). You may use any
power supply or battery that meets the power requirements listed in this
section and in Appendix A,
Technical specifications .
Important Only the SAILOR 3027 mini-C terminal must be placed
outdoors.
Place all other units in the system indoors!
For information on environmental requirements to the units,
refer to
Technical specifications on page 93 or the individual
installation manuals for the units.
Important If any additional NMEA 2000 equipment is connected to the
CAN bus, the power supply must be 15 VDC (nominal). To
convert your power supply to 15 VDC you may use a
SAILOR 6090 Power Converter or a SAILOR 6081 PSU and
Charger from Cobham SATCOM.
Note For the system to work with longer cables you may have to use a
higher input voltage for the SAILOR 3027, e.g. 29 VDC from the
SAILOR 6080 Power Supply. In this case, make sure all connected
equipment supports the supplied power.
