Uncrating - Dielectric TLP-8 Instruction Manual

Uncrating

Prior to opening any crate(s) or removing strapping from skids, inspect for shipping
damage. Notify the carrier immediately of any observed damage to the crate.
Note: TLP-8: The antenna single section is shipped under pressure and should remain so
until installation.
TLP-16,-24,-32: The two, three, or four antenna sections and feed lines are
shipped under pressure and should remain so until installation.
Open each crate and verify contents against packing list. If any parts are missing notify
Dielectric Communications immediately. Inspect contents for possible shipping damage.
Note: If any parts are found damaged, promptly notify the carrier. Shipping crates may
be used to return damaged parts.
Antenna Sections
Antenna sections are crated individually fully assembled, with hardware and O-rings.
Transmission Line, Power Divider & Feed Lines
Transmission lines may be crated with one or more sections per box. Feed lines are coiled
in a separate crate.
Power dividers and feed lines (TLP-16,-24,-32) were match marked so that the antenna
system will perform as tuned by the factory.
Where applicable, elbows and transmission line(s) for an elbow complex may be matched
marked.
Note: Discoloration on transmission line exterior surface is normal and was caused by
handling and exposure to the elements during tuning.
Mounts
Mounts may be crated on a pallet or in a box. Verify quantities and check for damage
prior to removal.
