The 3 spacers will have identical length if the antenna is
installed on a non-tilting surface, but may require individual
length adjustment if the surface is tilting. The M5 stainless
steel bolts will have identical length if the three spacers are
identical and may require individual length adjustment if
spacer length are different.
An Installation Kit is included with every antenna. It contains
the washers that are always used, three standard 10 mm
spacers used for a typical installation on a non-tilting surface
and standard length M5 stainless steel bolts with nuts – Note
length may have to be adjusted to accommodate a tilting
surface.
Additional Installation Kits are available from SpaceCom Part
No.: SPAC-AC-1036 Installation Kit.
Drainage of the antenna
In order to keep the height of the antenna as small as possible
and in order to avoid the complex and often unreliable
complete sealing of the antenna a simple mechanism in the
form of three holes in the dome (plastic enclosure) bottom is
used. The holes are made so that water e.g. solid drops is not
likely to enter the dome and simultaneously water that
incidentally has entered the dome or moisture condensed in the
dome is drained out simply by gravity. Correct function of the
drainage system will only be ensured by following criteria 1
and 1 above.
