7.4.1
DUT Mass and Eccentricity
Place the DUT's center of gravity close to the center of the DUT holder.
The maximum permissible mass of your DUT depends on the DUT holder used and on
the DUT's centricity. If you place the DUT's center of gravity with a lateral offset relative
to the turntable's axis of rotation, the maximum permissible mass decreases.
shows the permissible mass at a given maximum offset.

If your DUT has a mass distribution that is off-center, consider combining this DUT with
a suitable counterpoise. This combination can improve the concentricity of your DUT's
mass with the turntable.

Metal DUT Holder Set
Only an
is allowed to mount and configure DUT holders. An
use the DUT holders as configured.
A set of 3 aluminum DUT holder tubes, labeled 1 to 3 in
, is included in the
delivery. The tubes have the following heights:
●
Short DUT holder tube (1) = 40 mm
●
Medium DUT holder tube (2) = 115 mm
●
Long DUT holder tube (3) = 230 mm
The tubes are designed as a heavy-duty DUT support to stand on the azimuth turnta-
ble. Each tube has a large hole in its wall for feeding cables through to the DUT.
