4. Remove the straps that restrain the
radome cap. Leave the radome cap
on the pallet with the radome
panels for use during the radome
assembly.
5. Use diagonal cutters, or shears, to
cut the bands that restrain the
Hardware kit in the crate. Leave the
hardware kit on the pallet with the
radome panels for use during the
radome assembly.
6. Use diagonal cutters, or shears, to
cut the bands that restrain the box
of Silicon Adhesive in the crate.
Leave the Silicon Adhesive on the
pallet with the radome panels for
use during the radome assembly.
4.4.5. Assembling the Lower Radome Panels
Refer to the Radome Assembly drawing for your system and the procedure below. It is best to have
at
least TWO people sub-assembling the radome, one working from the inside and the other outside. Sub-
assemble the sections of the radome on a clean, flat location that is free of rocks and debris (i.e.
concrete) to assure good horizontal alignment of the panels.
If there are a sufficient number of people available to each hold a panel while an additional person
loosely installs a bolt/nut high, mid and low on each flange, the bottom half of the radome can be
assembled very quickly. With three bolts loosely holding each flange the radome will then stand as a
loose bowl and the extra 5 people can leave. Loosely install the rest of the hardware in each flange.
NOTE: Unless otherwise indicated, all nuts and bolts should be assembled
with Loctite 2760 or its equivalent.
1. On a flat surface, adjoin two panels (one should
be the panel with the door in it) and loosely
install hardware in all of the holes in the
adjoined vertical flanges. Do NOT tighten the
bolts at this time.
HINT: A crate, or other object, can be put against the
panels to hold them up while additional panes are
adjoined.
2. Assure good horizontal alignment of the panels.
Good alignment of the bottom edge of the
panels is important for good seal on the base
frame and good alignment of the top provides a
good seal between the lower and upper panels.
3. To provide a clean caulked seam all around the
panels: apply painters’ masking tape to the
outside perimeter of each of the panels about
¼” from the top, bottom, left and right edges at
each flange joint. The tape will be removed just
before the radome caulking has had time to set.
