2.10 Personnel and Equipment Protection
All electrical equipment can pose a safety hazard if not operated properly or if proper
safety precautions are not taken. Every care should be taken during the site planning
process to maximize personnel protection on site, both during the installation and once
the transmitter has been placed into operation. Below is a collection of
recommendations to follow to enhance personnel safety on site.
•
Post first aid procedures in a visible location.
•
Maintain a well-stocked first aid kit in a visible location.
•
Post emergency phone numbers next to all site telephones.
•
Install fire extinguishers appropriate for extinguishing electrical fires.
•
Maintain a file of Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) for any hazardous chemicals
on premises.
•
Restrict site access to unauthorized personnel and post applicable high voltage and
non-ionizing radiation hazard warnings.
•
Secure all equipment racks to prevent tip over hazards, especially at sites prone to
seismic activity.
•
When mounting ZX transmitting equipment in a pre-existing rack, be sure to mount
equipment low enough in relation to rack center of gravity to prevent a tip over haz-
ard.
•
Install mains safety disconnects (pull box or emergency off button) in sight of trans-
mitter so as to permit visual verification of mains status at all times while performing
maintenance.
•
Provide a means to lock out AC mains while performing maintenance to prevent
inadvertent electrocution by a second party.
2.10.1 Safety circuits
The ZX series transmitter has provisions for the following safety connections:
>
RF mute:
The RF MUTE signal line is available on pin 8 of the 25-pin REMOTE CONTROL
connector at the rear of the amplifier chassis. If the RF MUTE line is connected to
ground, the power control circuits within the amplifier chassis force its RF output to
zero, but the 50V DC circuits and cooling fans continue to operate. An example of a
possible connection point for this line would be the position switch in a coaxial switch.
The transmitter mutes its output when the switch is in travel, then quickly returns to full
power once the transition is complete.
