Installation manual

Safety and Warranty
GENERAL
All cables for the Fleet33 system are shielded and should not be affected by
magnetic fields. However, if possible do not run cables parallel to AC wiring –
failing to do so might cause the equipment to be faulty or working properly.
SERVICE
User access to the interior of the Transceiver Unit is prohibited. Only
technicians authorised by Thrane & Thrane A/S may service the unit - failing to
do so will void the warranty. Access to the interior of the Antenna Unit is
allowed, but only for replacement of certain modules - as described in this
manual. General service on the unit may only be performed by a technician
authorised by Thrane & Thrane A/S - failing to do so may void the warranty.
RADAR SAFETY DISTANCE
Do not move the antenna closer to radars than the minimum safety distance
specified in this manual - this will possibly damage the antenna eventually.
Equipment must be installed with a minimum safe distance to magnetic
steering compass of at least 1.1 m. Personal safe distance is 1.3 m from the
antenna while it is transmitting.
GROUNDING, CABLES AND CONNECTIONS
The Transceiver Unit must be grounded at its grounding stud.
The shielded cables must generally be grounded in both ends, except for the
cable between transceiver and Cradle, which shall not be grounded in the
Cradle end. Connections of all types of equipment must be done while the unit
is switched off.
Do not extend the cables beyond those specified for the equipment – except
the cable between the transceiver Unit and the antenna unit. This can be
extended if it complies with the specified data concerning cable losses etc.
