Radio installation in gas or fuel tankers

Special conditions must be observed when installing a radio
in gas and fuel tankers. Consult your radio provider or
Tait-accredited service centre for more details.

Non-standard radio installations

The installation U-bracket described in this guide has been
designed so that there is enough airflow around the radio to
provide cooling.
When drilling holes in the vehicle, check that drill-
ing at the selected points will not damage existing
wiring, petrol tanks, fuel lines, brake pipes or
battery cables.
Radio installation in vehicles powered by LPG with
the LPG container in a sealed-off space within the
interior of the vehicle must conform to the National
Fire Protection Association Standard NFPA 58. This
standard states that the radio equipment installa-
tion must meet the following requirements.
The space containing the radio equipment shall be iso-
lated by a seal from the space containing the LPG con-
tainer and its fitting.
Outside filling connections shall be used for the LPG con-
tainer and its fittings.
The LPG container space shall be vented to the outside of
the vehicle.
