    09 Series System Configuration(s) 4009-91MK3 Installation Manual 09 Series System Configuration(s) The 09 Series Stabilized Antenna system is to be used for Transmit/Receive (TX/RX) satellite communications, it is comprised of two major groups of equipment. These are the Above Decks Equipment (ADE) and the Below Decks Equipment (BDE). There will also be interconnecting cables between the ADE &...
  • Page 10: Dual Antenna Configuration

    4009-91MK3 Installation Manual 09 Series System Configuration(s) 1.4. Dual Antenna Configuration Sometimes, due to very large blockage conditions, you may need to install a dual antenna configuration to provide uninterrupted services. Two full antenna systems are installed and the ACU control outputs are connected to an arbitrator switch panel which then is connected to the below decks equipment.

  • Page 13: Site Survey

    Site Survey 4009-91MK3 Installation Manual Site Survey The objective of the Site survey is to find the best place to mount the antenna & the below decks equipment, the length and routing of the cables and any other items or materials that are required to install the system and identify any other issues that must be resolved before or during the installation.
  • Page 14: Mounting Foundation

    The height of the pedestal should be kept as short as possible, taking into account recommendations given in other Sea Tel Guidelines. The minimum height of the pedestal above a flat deck or platform to allow access into the radome for maintenance should be 0.6 meters (24 inches).
  • Page 15: Mounting Height

    2.5. Mast Configurations Sea Tel recommends the ADE be mounted on the ship in a location which has both a clear line-of-sight to the target satellites in all potential azimuth/elevation ranges and sufficient support against vibration excitement. If possible, mounting the ADE pedestal directly to ship deckhouse structures or other box stiffened structures is preferred.
  • Page 16: Vertical Masts

    4009-91MK3 Installation Manual Site Survey 2.5.1. Vertical Masts Vertical masts are a very ancient and common mast design. In essence, it is the mast derived from the sailing mast, adapted for mounting the ever-increasing array of antennae ships need to communicate with the world.
  • Page 17: Truss Mast

    For every 100 Kilograms of ADE weight over 250 Kilograms, the depth of the platform stiffeners should be increased by 50 millimeters and thickness by 2 millimeters. Sea Tel does not have a recommended arrangement for a truss mast – the variability of truss mast designs means that each installation needs to be evaluated separately.
  • Page 18: Ade/Bde Coaxial Cables

    4009-91MK3 Installation Manual Site Survey moisture exists. The ends of the conduit shall be sealed with cable glands (preferred), mastic or low VOC silicon sealant after the cables have been passed through. Cables passing through bulkheads or decks shall be routed through approved weather tight glands. 2.8.1.
  • Page 19: Grounding

    Site Survey 4009-91MK3 Installation Manual 2.9. Grounding All metal parts of the ADE shall be grounded to bare metal that is common to the hull of the ship. This is most commonly accomplished by attaching a ground wire/cable from the upper base plate ground point to a ground stud on the mounting pedestal/stanchion/mast near the base of the radome.

    4009-91MK3 Installation Manual Installation 3.3. Installing the ADE The antenna pedestal is shipped completely assembled in its radome. Please refer to the entire Site Survey chapter of this manual. Base Hatch Access - Mounting the radome directly on the deck, or platform prevents access to the hatch in the base of the radome unless an opening is designed into the mounting surface to allow such entry.

    Installation 4009-91MK3 Installation Manual Attach shackles and four part web lifting sling arrangement to the eyebolts. Attach a suitable length tagline to one of the eyebolts. After hoisted into place the lifting eyes are to be removed & replaced with the stainless hardware that was removed in step 4 (the eyes are galvanized with bare thread that will rust if left exposed to the weather).
  • Page 24 Other locations around the radome base are MUCH thicker, requiring longer strain reliefs than the ones provided by Sea Tel. Refer to the strain relief installation procedure provided in the Drawings chapter of this manual.

  • Page 28: Removing The El Shipping/Stow Restraint

    4009-91MK3 Installation Manual Installation To un-stow the antenna, remove the pin bolt from the LOCK position. Install the pin bolt into the STOW hole and tighten. This assures that it does not get lost and will be ready for re-use if the antenna needs to be stowed again at a later date.
  • Page 29 Installation 4009-91MK3 Installation Manual To un-restrain the elevation axis of the antenna, unthread the two hex nuts. Using a ¾” open end wrench, remove the hex nuts and washer from the stow pin-bolt. Remove the stow pin-bolt from the bracket. Remove the washer from the stow pin-bolt and thread one of the 2 hex nuts onto the bolt and tighten.
  • Page 30: Removing The Cl Shipping/Stow Restraint

    4009-91MK3 Installation Manual Installation Tighten the hex nut to prevent the hardware from loosening while in the un-stowed configuration.

    Setup – Ship’s Gyro Compass 4009-91MK3 Installation Manual Setup – Ship’s Gyro Compass The Ships Gyro Compass connection provides true heading (heading of the ship relative to true North) input to the system. This allows the ICU to target the antenna to a “true” Azimuth position to acquire any desired satellite. After targeting, this input keeps the antenna stabilized in Azimuth (keeps it pointed at the targeted satellite Azimuth).
