Masts
The mast chosen for the application must:
• Raise the terminal to a height of at least 2 metres (81 in.) higher than the structure.
(Minimum accepted).
• Have an FRP mast section of at least 2 metres (81 in.) used below the air terminal if
using LPI HVSC.
• Be suitable for local weather conditions. Seek guidance from a local civil engineer.
• Be guyed and securely attached to the dedicated mounting points (if required).
Types of Mast Configurations
When mounting a Guardian CAT terminal, there are generally
three types of mast configurations that can be used.
Cantilevered
Typically used for mounting to a tower or the side wall of
a plant room when a mast and base are not suitable. See
drawings CTA-02, CTA-03, CTA-05 and Figure 36.
• 1/3 of the overall mast height must be fixed to the
structure for adequate mechanical strength.
• Cantilevered masts can be guyed for additional
strength. If guying, the use of a guy ring and/or the
eyelets provided on the inline coupling can be utilized.
