RA DI A TION HAZ ARD: NON-ION ISING
AERIAL RADIATION HAZARD: INJURY CAN RESULT FROM EXPOSURE TO
THE MAIN BEAM OF A STATIONARY RADAR AERIAL. DO NOT STAND
LESS THAN 2 m FROM THE CENTRAL FRONT FACE OF THE AERIAL.
6 It is accepted in most countries that no significant hazard is presented by radio frequency
mean power density levels up to 10mW/cm. RF power levels in excess of this may cause
harmful effects, particularly to the eyes.
7 Users of cardiac pacemakers should be aware that radio frequency transmissions, can
damage some such devices or cause irregularities in their operation. Persons using a
pacemaker should ascertain whether their device is likely to be affected before exposing
themselves to the risk of malfunction.
SAFETY ALOFT
AERIAL ROTATION: BEFORE MAINTENANCE TO THE TURNING
MECHANISM TAKES PLACE, DISABLE AERIAL ROTATION.
8 When working aloft, ensure that it is brought to the attention of someone in authority at
deck or at ground level and that suitably placed warning notices are posted warning that
work aloft is in progress. Ensure that the means of access aloft is secure and beware of wet or
slippery ladder rungs and working areas.
9 When working on or near a radar scanner and other moving or r.f. radiating equipment,
ensure that it is switched off and that the fuses have been removed and retained.
PER SONAL PRO TEC TION
10 Personal protection must be used whenever the possibility of an uncontrolled hazard
exists. For example, a suitable face visor, gloves and a body apron should be worn when
handling cathode ray tubes, as a precaution against injury in the event of breakage.
EQUIP MENT SAFETY
11 Do not run the radar with the rotating joint output disconnected.
12 Removal of printed circuit boards with power connected can damage FETs and
Integrated Circuits.
13 The circuitry used on the equipment PCBs utilises CMOS Integrated Circuits. All the
relevant CMOS precautions must be taken to avoid damage to CMOS circuitry when any
board is removed.
14 The equipment should be serviced by qualified agents only.
