(Refer to RF Plumbing Layout drawings.)
Because almost every station is different, refer to the suggested layout for information for
location of hybrids, loads, couplers and filters. Install the directional couplers for each
cabinet first, and work from there out toward the loads and antenna. Note where multiple
PA cabinet installations require equal line lengths into hybrids. Make any desired VSWR
measurements of the RF plant before making final connections to the cabinets.
2.9 AC Primary Wiring
(Refer to AC Power Distribution drawing.)
Three phase AC power wiring for each amplifier cabinet should be installed through the
hole provided for conduit directly above the main contactor. Removal of the safety shield
over the contactor is required, and the shield must be replaced after completing the AC
power wiring in each cabinet.
All cabinets must be phased identically; that is, each phase connects to the same point in
each cabinet, and each 50 volt power supply is connected like the others. For example, at
PS1: TB2-1 connects to phase A on all supplies, etc. All logic must be powered from the
same phase.
The power for the control cabinet is fed through the conduit hole in the left rear top of the
cabinet. There is an option that requires a dual AC mains feed. The three phase power runs
to the terminal block(s) mounted on the left wall of cabinet. Again, the safety shield must
be removed before installation, and replaced after completion.
2.10 UPS Installation
Remove the UPS from the shipping box, locate the manual for the UPS and review the
installation section of that manual. The UPS manufactures recommend that the batteries not
be charged before final installation. Therefore the UPS is not installed or tested with the
transmitter.
Install the UPS on the shelf below the GUI computer, the power connections to the cabinet
rear. The bracket above the supply is used to hold the UPS in place. Align the front fold of
this bracket with the front of the UPS. Tighten the screws to hold the UPS in place.
Checkout the UPS following the UPS manual instructions.
2.11 Inter-cabinet Wiring
(Refer to the Cabinet Interconnect Drawing)
A cable tray (not furnished) should be installed along the top of the transmitter for cabinet
interconnecting. Install the control and monitor cables in this tray. It may be plastic or
metal, and attached to the top of the cabinet with screws or bolts.
