Figure 10.1: Automatic antenna transfer control unit

RF contactor

The RF contactor is an RF output switching device for a main/standby control cabinet that interfaces 
main and standby transmitters (less than 15 kW RF output power) between an antenna and a dummy 
load. Typically, an automatic antenna transfer control unit controls the RF contactor's position by 
applying ac voltage to the 'set' or 'reset' solenoid of the RF contactor. The RF contactor's position 
determines the routing of the transmitter outputs to the antenna and dummy load. Micro-switches on 
the RF contactor provide interlock control for both transmitters and prevent 'live' switching.
